Dave, you and I are sharing the same ride these days and I have to say, other than not being wader friendly I have few regrets in not having any other wheels. However, the best fishing machine I've ever used (didn't own it unfortunately...belonged to the in-laws) was a 2000 Rav-4. It's not gonna follow a Jeep Rubicon but it was surprisingly capable off pavement, had amazing gas mileage and had lots of room for gear and 4 people. Could tow a respectable trailer if need be as well. Only thing would have made it better was a roof rack. When I get a job that allows me to have a vehicle powered by something other than my legs, one of these will be at the top of the "I want it" list for sure.
