    I see all these commercials for electric vehicles used for hunting on the hunting shows and wonder who honestly buys these things? Not only can I not afford one, I don't think I really need one. I've gotten by for years parking my Silverado at the nearest spot and walking the rest of the way in. So, what is your guys' hunting vehicles? I know a lot of guys that hunt out of Corollas and Cavaliers so have no shame :D

    In my mind it seemed to work because how you get there is all part of hunting. But, if it bothers people an Admin can move it if they like! Anyway, I have a 99 Silverado 1500. It's been a good truck and has a lot of miles on it now. Almost time for new tires before Winter!

    2004 Dodge 2500 4x4 diesel, ezgo st 4x4 and yamaha 400 4 wheeler. 99% of time I drive my truck to a spot and walk the rest of the way but I do have some areas that I go to on my property that you can't get a truck or it would end up like the Ford. I tend to think that everyones hunting situation would be different and the need for one of the atv or utvs would depend on the access. Just as an example, I hunted in a club several years ago that did not allow trucks on any of the roads away from the camp area and it was 5.5 miles to the back of the property.

    I drive my 2001 FORD ESCORT. She is a quiet little beast and will go anywhere. I check all my trail cameras in her. The afternoon that we killed the big 8 I drove the old girl to the food plot and checked the cam in my hip waders. I love that car. Great gas mileage and as long as your not worried about looking cool your good to go. ACTUALLY come to think of it I put the back seat down and slid my iowa buck in the trunk last year and drove home. I should of filmed it for the show. Thats the stuff that you dont see on tv.

    Can't top that, but I take my '09 Dodge Caliber. I use a small flat that attaches to my hitch in case I need to haul anything home. :)
