Mike - some people will have cars over on the island. Best bet is to get a fishing buddy or two to go over with one bringing a car/truck. Going over in the past, this is how I have always done it... The island is so diverse in how you can fish it and places to go, you really want a vehicle over there for flexibility.
4X4 is nice as it gets you into extra places IF you want to get beach stickers. But most great places can be gotten to by car & walking. Some of the great places like Squibby, Gay Head, and other NDLs
a 4x4 does you no good. Wasque and South beach can be accessed & walked from parking lots for those that are up to it but easily more than 80% of the accessible spots on the island do not need a 4x4 and a sticker. Main places for a sticker are the TTOR sticker for ORV access to Wasque & Pogue, and a different sticker for Norton Point - where the washout is - and I'm not sure what's up with that...
