2000 Chevy S-10. Took me over most every dirt road in Southern Oregon and never let me down. Probably the only vehicle that amassed 160,00 miles without a flat tire.
PS: My new Ford Escape is still in diapers, only 4500 miles.

My plain vanilla, 2WD Dodge pick-up. Ain't fancy, ain't purty.....kinda like me....but it always gets the job done.....kinda like me.

Well, my favorite, back in the day, was my 1972 Toyota Land Cruiser.
Wish I still had that sucka! It could climb a wet goat trail!
Nowadays, as I'm more pedestrian, it doesn't really matter. Just get me from home to the water.
My little Nissan King Cab gets me to where my legs can handle it.
Have enjoyed reading what others use these days to get to their fishin' destinations!

I liked the F150 with crew cab and truck cap with the pass through window for assembled rods. Lost of room, decent mileage even with 4 WD.
This is my "go to" fishin vehicle. 2008 Jeep Liberty .

Hopefully it'll never suffer the abuse of it's predecessor

Whoops, I forgot to answer the post after Marco's pic. 96 model F150 4WD gets me where I want to go, and so far its got me back. :)
When I was younger and healthier and was bow hunting for elk, I had a 1972 camperized chevy van. Double bed with storage underneath. 20 gallon water tank with manual/electric pump. 2 burner stove. Camper refrigerator freezer. Swivel captain's seats. Power steering & brakes. AM/FM stereo cassette player. I called it the MEAT wagon. (Mobil-Elk-Assault-Truck) Man, I wish I had another one like it. It was red.
I had a 1974 GMC Jimmy that I ran the wheels off of. Got almost 200K miles on the first engine and teh body was coming apart before I wore the second one out. That thing hauled a 28' travel trailer into and out of some places in Wyoming that hunting buddies were positive I would never get to. It was a challenge for them to try to keep it out of hunting camp.
Now, it is either a 71 Chevy Pickup or the 2000 Ranger, both 4x4 and both in great shape. The old Chevy just got a new engine and runs strong. Gas mileage sucks, but it sure runs good. :)
