delay18 Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 AWD FTW!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diggerdan11 Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 Well that will depend on where you live and what you use the truck for. Mine is AWD and living in Oregon it was necessary to have a AWD or 4X4 Truck because of the snow, and its nice in the rain too. Now that i live in Tucson AZ a 2wd truck would prob be just fine for me. On the other hand if you plan on racing your truck down the track, 2wd are a little faster if you get traction, the nice thing about AWD is you always have traction. Some of the fastest SS's on the forum are AWD. So ts up to you what s better for what you need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoc607 Posted June 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 Well I live in Louisiana so we dont have snow and I have another truck for the mud. I am hoping to build a quick truck but mid to low 13s at best. Would I need AWD for that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ss454327 Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Personally I like the AWD but the 2WDs are fine too. Either one run better at the track with a wheel swap and with the 2WD you only have to swap the rear wheels. As for mid-low 13's I'd think any of the 6.0 chevys with full bolt ons and a cam would get you there. My formula for that would be... ARH 1 7/8" headers with true 3" duals TSP 228R cam AEM Bruteforce CAI Custom tune (not mail order) Circle D 3k-3400 stall (depending on your towing needs) Vette Servo and HD-2 shiftkit OR...a 100 shot on the stock motor...HAHAHA!

ssspringer Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Can't go wrong either way. I've only had snow once since i've had mine..5 years...was pleased with how it did!! My first awd ...handles great too! I've always loved doing burnouts.....but awd saves me on tires!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike1booth Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 i love my awd in the snow... but if i could have another that i could build and only drive half the year it would deff be a 2wd, but money dosnt permit that luxury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
