So that is not the reason I mention it. Mine is a http://www.fotograaf.com/trooper Kind regards, Erik-Jan. |
I would say the Ford Bronco would be the best four wheel drives.Why I
wont go there but it is simply the best. |

Best 4x4 to get the kids to soccer practice and bring the groceries home in Quebec means something completly differant than best 4x4 to tackle the rubicon. -- ..boB 1997 HD FXDWG - Turbocharged! 2001 Dodge Dakota QC 5.9/4x4/3.92 1966 Mustang Coupe - Daily Driver 1966 FFR Cobra - Ongoing project |
Trader4Lessdotcom wrote: > Explain your reasoning!! Thx This question is sort of useless. You must ask: "What is the best 4x4 for your needs" or "What is the best 4x4 for a specifc purpose" A Porsche Turbo is a 4x4 and one of the best cars there is but if I need a 4x4 to drive over rocks and mud the Porsche will be a sucker. The recent japanse noframe, light 4x4 are great for soccer moms driving through town. But they wouldnt last long in the terrain my truck goes. My truck is built so it does exactly what I need it to do. It would suck in the hands of a soccer mom. Matt |

Same thing ... light 4x4 without frame. Great for city slickers and the
trip to the skihill. Some domestics are relabeled japanese ... Ford Ranger and Some Nissan are IMO identical ... you get the idea... Get the 4x4 that suits YOU and not the "best" Matt |
I would say that your driver is going to be the largest determination
factor in a 4x4. For me, a good 4x4 can go damn near anywhere, and still be able to roll back out onto pavement to head home. Granted with some off road mods I may only hit 55mph on the freeway I think its a pretty good trade off. My suggestion would be a Discovery over a defender for this type of 4x4. Reasoning, well, its comfortable, heater leather seats, 6 cd changer, warm in winter, cool in summer. And the suspension articulates enough that most of the time you never realize how precarious your situation is. And as to the Freelander... who is the crack smoker that told you they are made in Japan? They are still LR and made in England..Ford may own them and really f#*k it up, but for now they are really nice, well built and pretty capable for the average driver. The Crusiers are nice as well but without a lot of mods they dont articulate as much which may tend to make the average driver a bit nervous when they hit that 40 degree angle. |
