Hey all, looking for input.
Running a 2020 Crosstrek, paid off, 90k miles. Solid and reliable but I'm starting to feel its limits hunting elk in Colorado. When I'm doing a two-man elk hunt, it's just tight gear, I dont think it would be possible to pack out two elk. Im driving to Utah with my dad in the fall to do a cow elk hunt am afraid about what happens if we get two elk down.
Thinking about keeping it and investing in a lift and all-terrains since it's paid off and I know the rig, but wondering if there's a point where you're just polishing a turd for backcountry elk. Also looking at a used Tacoma, 4Runner, or Outback/Forester Wilderness. Open to other recs too.
I can only have one car right now so this will be commuter in COS to.
What would you guys do?
