The area I guide has little road access but alot of over growen logging roads that are two small for a full size truck. The other problem is the law says I cannot use a atv or sled before 10 am for hunting purposes, so a side by side is out of the question. I thought the answer may be something like a Susuki Samuri , small compact and insurable. Somehow it could be modified for hounds as well. Give me your ideas and if you have any suggestions or pictures put them up. I thought possibly a Four Runner may work as well if I could find one with a removable back.

Beardogtreed on this site had some pictures of a jeep he fixed up. I bet that would work for you.

Here is my rig!
It holds 7 hounds fine. Top box I made removable for off season.

Good looking rig. Some of my problem is that I often have 2 hunters at once and I am a one man show. Both hunters would have to ride with me so room is an issue. I am starting to think I may have to go with a 4 Runner or something to allow for more passengers. I only want to do this once so the choice I make should be the right one. Thanks for your help.

I used to have a 4 runner before i had hounds. I guided out of it for 2 years, great off road vehicle. I put some skinny yoko's on it and it would go anywhere. Having bigger guests in it is tight. I would suggest putting some kind of plastic tote when your putting your kills in it. Great vehicles. Josh
