What does this mean to you, I always think of the old saying, form follows function, if it isn't functional it isn't practical.   When I think practical I also think reliable. The most important thing is to make it out, nothing against performance as long as it doesn't hinder reliability.  Practical also means to me, that at the end of the day you can put it into High 2X and roll it down the highway at 65 mph, if you have to load it on a trailer you might as well use an ATV. As far as the actual driving, I am not one to go hard coring up some God forsaken trail just to say I did it (well maybe once in awhile), I like there to be a goal in mind. even if that goal is not really vital or important. That is what practical 4X4ing means to me. For instance! Visit my Blog for some great examples of practical 4x4ing.
