Depends on your experience driving in snow and ice previously. They're capable in light snow and ice, with good tires and you might need some weight in the back.

Lots of sand bags in the bed for added weight will help with traction.

Thank you, I have had older 4-wheel drive Toyota trucks that did great in snowy roads, but had a 2000 Tundra, great truck, but you were lucky to get out of your driveway!

I agree with Gear_yyc from my experience with Toyota 4x2's. Swing by your local tire store and pick up a good set of tire chains just for insurance. (I put about 200 lbs. in the bed)

Thanks for reply, this is what I want to know, getting little older now, I always went around here where I live in bad weather to see who I get out of ditch, but not now!

Put a good set of all-weather tires on and a couple of hundred pounds of weight in the back, and she'll do well.
