well had my run with jeep, id do it again if it didnt cost soo much, now its economical vehicle, with some power, but if i was to build an off roader again it would deff. be a truck, bit of a fool for a dakota, but deff. going for ''sporty'' car now.

I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(

If I don't drive my Willys, I'd drive the Liberty.  If I don't drive the Liberty, I take the 1 ton Dodge 3500 CTD.  If I don't drive the Dodge, I drive the wife's VW TDI Jetta.

Barring that, I grab a beer, head to the garage, and make "vroom vroom" sounds in the cab of the CJ3B project.  8)

If my name was fug, if I didn't drive the jeep, I'd drive the jeep or the jeep or the jeep or the jeep or the jeep or the...... :D
`48 CJ2A, `54 CJ3B, `97 TJ, and 03 WJ...batting close to .500 when it comes to jeep models owned vs. jeep models created.....

Oh...we're allowed aftermarket parts? then I need ot change my answer.

I'd drive a Land Rover Defender 90 on 37's with a Jaguar V-12.


Edit: with a supercharger, portal axles, and a military-grade central tire pressure system.

F150 super crew fx4 with lots of options, add a supercharger, maybe slightly bigger AT's.  More room for the kids and dog and could haul stuff too (road trips to the folks and hunting).  It'd probably replace the wj and not the tj though, I'm too attached to that thing.

This is not 'Nam, this is wheeling.  There are rules.

hmmmm.... interesting answers.

myself... Subaru WRX STi, or a Nissan Xtrail (Offroad edition), or a MacLaren F1LM, or 1967 Mercury Cougar, or, or, or, or.....


I just don't have enough $$. Space is not an issue.... if you have $$ you can buy space.
if we were smart with our money we wouldn't own Jeeps.
Here's your cup of STFU... ENJOY!

summer?



sorry say what you want about 'gone in 60 seconds' but trust me i've had a hard on for this car for years.

OR..........................  a beat up old CJ-5 on 32s barely running, no roof, no doors, the 'beater'  (this i would drive if i were rich lol)


winter......

2000 Grand Cherokee.... 2" lift 31s..........................

i think optimum choice would be a Chev Duramax.... 6" 37s modded out....... be my winter driver and my tow rig... i'd drive it every day.....
~ rescue green JKUR on 35s.  typical rubicon build
