Maybe, but it was only a few months old at the time. Was great off road at 15mph or less. He didn't upgrade the axles so maybe the tires were too beaucoup. He tried a few JGCs after that but their reliability was such ******** he dumped both and bought a Raptor. Too much truck for Colorado IMO...

You do understand the point of overlanding, right? Overlanding != technical rock crawling. It's glamping on wheels. Have you even looked at any of the feature articles on the front of this site? I like making cast-iron cobbler and ribeyes over a fire while enjoying cold beer, and when that...

Not gonna lie, it's a lot nicer floating over washboards vs. feeling every single one and hoping you don't skitter off into the ditch. Windsor leather feels great, too - adjustable bolsters hug you like your English granny at tea time. Probably just as nice as all those ostrich-leather seats I...

Uh, OK, the last time I was in a brand-new Wrangler Rubicon 2-door with 35's driving down the highway at 75mph, it was like riding a blind horse with one leg longer than the other. ************** thing was all over the road, bouncing around over pavement joints and tramlining. A fart of a breeze from...

The 4Runner doesn't have EAS and has a solid rear axle, and is a ladder frame vehicle. The Defender is an order of magnitude stiffer and has EAS that automatically adjusts to load. I think it will live up to its 15,000lb GVWR with no problem.

They have a steel bash plate, winch tray, sliders, and others make an a-bar, but no bumper. Doesn't seem to bother people like Kinglsey Holgate. Had to Google "Road to Hell South Africa."

I think that's debatable. Unlimited vs 110, 2-door vs 90, my bet is the Defender can go where the Rubicon goes. In fact, the Defender has a better wading depth off the lot, so right there you're proven wrong.

This may enlighten the reason why Land Rover is testing a V8 in the Defender: https://www.thedrive.com/news/33529/porsche-911-boss-claims-new-emissions-regs-could-bring-back-bigger-engines-in-2026

Your examples are all variations on the same thing - off-roaders. Land Rover never sold commercial versions of any vehicle in the US; they still sell commercial versions of the new Discovery in the UK, and showed a commercial version of the Defender at its debut last fall, and are offering them...

Land Rover released a Defender Augmented Reality app...you can see what it looks like in your driveway! Worth a few minutes of amusement.

But the Defender does exactly that - it excels on the road as well as off, and will keep you safer than a Wrangler in the process, even if after an additional $10,000+ in modifications a Wrangler can go places a Defender won't. Yeah, I'll take the Defender, thanks.

..And that's only if the frame welds hold together. https://moparinsiders.com/nhtsa-opens-investigation-on-wrangler-jls-questionable-welds/ I love Jeep's statement in response to the 2019 Euro NCAP's one-star rating: "...the Jeep Wrangler is engineered to deliver superior performance and...

FTFY So just delete the brand badging.

Oh Noes! A company did a marketing event where people smiled and there were lights and music! Obviously they no longer make vehicles relevant to the couple hundred people in the US who bought the last version of the thing they sold here.

$450K EarthRoamer, anyone?

...and the Defender does not? If anything is does more things for more people.

You clearly have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

SO much this. Preach it brother.

So Corvette is...?
