She definitely could, sheās very physically fit. Even for 3+ months preggo.
But why walk when you have a built 200 to drive and fuel is cheap.

Iāve been ordering in single tire options for the next set. Honestly cannot make up my mind. Really considering stepping down to a 285/75, or putting my tundra wheels on 295/70s on it. Iāve got factory LC wheels and even tempted to go 275/70 
However from the beef looking 35-12.5s on ā0ā itāll be a huge change to 275/70s on oem.
I donāt hate the KO3, I donāt love the price tag.
If I was smart I would bolt the LC wheels on with the 275/70 KO2 I have and save the 35-12.5 setup for when I take trips. Itās not like I canāt add 10 minutes to my 2x a year trip prep to bolt another set of wheels on.

Also I should add I donāt āneedā tires.
But as a tire shop I have a hard time wearing a set of tires completely out. Also I rarely buy the same tire twice.
My 315/70r17 Mickey Thompson boss At have 55k+ miles on them, and still have 9/32 tread ( 5 tire rotations). I have absolutely zero complaints about these tires, in fact I really really like them.

Also this picture posted on another thread gives me much motivation to bolt the wheels off the tundra on the 200.. The first world problems that run through my head constantlyā¦

150 mile loop Today with the girls. 1/3 on gravel, couple water crossings. Nothing extreme.
Great trip, it was great to just slow down and enjoy the day.

Priceless as the commercial says.

11mpg this fill up. Ran hard last weekend and warm up starts.
Still havenāt bought tires. Did order shocks from Dobinsons on their Black Friday special. Maybe they will show up before the end of the year.

Mom car updates.
Installed the rear Dobinsons shocks. Ended up having to cut the old ones off. They were overdue for replacement, zero spring back and way easy to push in. They served their life span.
Hopefully can do the front struts this year sometime.
Installed the pan hard correction kit I picked up off a forum member a while back.
Filled with fuel.
270,600 miles

If it was white you wouldnāt even know it was there.
Itās honestly perfect for this build.
If it was a wheeler that might be a different story.
Theyāre are extremely hard to find!

Funny because when I wanted the matching swing out Long Range America had one on the shelf that was an open box special. They cut me a deal on it and it was a great fit.

The 200 retired from full time mom duty a couple weeks ago when we picked up a 2008 Limited Sequioa 5.7 4x4
Bolted the pro wheels and 295 Duratrac RT off my tundra on it and had the windows tinted.

The 200 is still our favorite Toyota.
Our newest addition is due this week so I detailed, fueled up, and threw some spray ceramic on the white whale. Loaded up the hospital bags and the car seats. Itās patiently waiting and ready.

My Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT have about 65,000 on them currently. Still plenty of tread and great traction in the last snow we had.
I look every week trying to make a decision on what to replace them with.
I really want a Mud Terrain. However this thing doesnāt get beat on, especially anywhere muddy.
The Faulken AT4W is an option.
Or just go back with exactly what I have now.
Or jump off the deep end and put 37s on it and join the cool kids club.

I donāt want to drive anything else 50+ miles in the snow storm of the year. Tomorrow is new baby day. 200 is ready. We are ācamped outā at my sisters lake House. 10 miles to the hospital, supposed to be 8ā on the ground in the morning.
