    Tundras are not the smallest offroader out there. Plan to take my kids hunting and camping as I live in rural British Columbia and am close to logging roads on crown/federal land.

    Other than not taking it out at all and having a pavement princess, or using a buddy's truck, what are good ways to avoid damaging a Tundra?

    Get sliders and get rid of the exhaust pipe.

    Certainly the best way to avoid dumbass offroad mistakes is to not be a dumbass, but for us human beings that seems to be part of the package now and then. :rolleyes:

    Sliders & skidplates can mitigate some of the negative side effects of human dumbassery. Since my offroad toy is also usually my ride home for me,my wife, dogs, and trailer, I tend to err on the side of caution.

    If you're not sure, get out and walk it first. For most logging roads you're probably gonna' be fine, just don't suddenly decide you're Johnny drifter unless you know what's around the apex and off the edge. If you do, then turn off the nannies and hang it out!!
