Top 5 Methods of Transportation in Montana

#1 Truck, preferably a Ford F250, F350 or Dodge diesel, maybe a dually (we're not talking about some festy ass Toyota lifted 8 inches, super swamper tires and no muffler with pipes re-routed out the side of the cab, half a Fox Racing sticker on the back of the cab with a three toothed, skoal spitting racist, redneck, mullet equipped 30 something, white male with 3 illegitimate children behind the wheel.  No, Montanans actually use their trucks for doing things like, hauling trailers or boats or hay.  They have tools and machinery they need to cart around.  Feed for the horses and lumber for building barns and shit.  They don't call it their "rig", it's their truck and when it gets muddy they wash it off instead of driving it around all fucked up to look cool.  They are real truck driving people and don't feel the need to make you look at how cool and big their truck is and the inverse proportion it is to the size of their wiener.  Yeah, that's amateur hour Idaho shit).
#2 Drift boat/raft-Many folks' second vehicle, these are towed behind every third truck around Missoula or Bozeman and considering how many rivers abound in the state this is not surprising.
#3 Snowmobile-If there's snow on the ground you can bet you'll be commuting via Polaris.
#4 ATV- Not racing quads around in the woods.  ATV's are for getting around on the ranch and hauling giant elk carcasses out of the woods so you can butcher them and store meat in the freezer for the winter.
#5 Tractor- Lots of land in Big Sky Country.  If I had a ranch in Montana I'd own a John Deere. Rabble-B
