Nothing fancy really...I'd get myself another J20 and turn it into the ultimate trail rig so I wouldn't have to wreck the one I have now.  ::)

And with the left over I'd get a Unimog 4x4 or 6x6 and be king of the trails!   -laughs hysterically- ;D
'95 ZJ: 3" Budget lift, quick-disconnects, 31x10.5 Savero MT's
'74 J20: 401, Holley Street Avenger 4 barrel, custom  camper.
'75 F100: 351M, 5" Super Lift.

Didn't hps4evr just post up something similar to this thread?
$1,000,000 wouldn't buy me my dream car. If I won the $$... I'd do something smart with it.... like pay off my house, all my bills, and go on vacation for a year.
if we were smart with our money we wouldn't own Jeeps.
Here's your cup of STFU... ENJOY!

I'd still drive my ZJ, I hate having to drive the truck at work since my Jeep is more capable in the mud.  Maybe a JK with a bit of lift.

I'm a car wh0re. It wouldn't be just one car, I'd buy a whole fleet. Something for every kind of weather/mood.

Old muscle car, probably a Toureg, a small sporty car like a Subaru or Audi, new diesel truck, a REALLY big RV and probably a helicopter to drop it into the places I wanted to camp at(easier than towing).

I'd keep the Jeep though, just cause I built it. Oh yeah I'd get an early '80s AMC Eagle SX/4(the 2 door hatch back), wife had one as her first car and we've always regretted selling it.

So thats if I HAD to spend it on cars. In reality I'd probably buy an acerage for myself and some rental properties. Real Estate is the only thing that seems to hold value these days.

by the sound of it a million might not be enough for your toy list.


I'd go debt free and ake a month off and get everything done to me vehicles that I have planned thus far. And buy a good pipe bender and star making some other goodies.
