Wanted: Off Road SUV

[Shah]

What are good off road trucks? I have been looking at a Land Rover Discovery. Any other suggestions? No Jeeps.....

[kammi10]

umm not a lnad rover discovery, you could get a way better one for what one of those would cost, let alone parts for those are uber expensive,

but seriously a jeep, even tho u said no to one

[Shah]

I just got done looking at the reviews for the Disco so its a no no. I just dont want a jeep because everyone has them. what is the next best thing?

[DETROITMUSCLE]

Everyone has Jeeps because they are the single best off-road vehicle bone stock. Just make sure its a wrangler.

You Wrangler guys can suck it! If it's a Jeep atleast makes sure its an XJ (cherokee). What exactly you looking for? A DD and an offroader? Purely something to beat on? I would go out and get a 4x4 94+ nonZR2 S10/Sonoma. A buddy of mine from work has a 1997 4x4 S10 ext cab with a 4.3 auto. He put on 4 inch suspension lift, 2 inch body lift, some nice 33's, and basic bolt ons (exhaust, CAI, gearing) and it is unstoppable offroad. The cool thing about S10's is if you take it offroad and bang it up there are like 10 milllion of them in the junkyards.

I would get a jeep before a s10. I just want a stock 4x4 to upgrade. i will give jeep another look.

If you are looking at a Jeep get a Cherokee. If you plan on driving it anymore then to the trails and back you will regret a Wrangler. Your teeth will fall out of your head. Trust me, I put lifts on all day long. If you need parts with whatever you get PM me. I get lift kits, rims, exhaust systems, gauges, tires, hoods, paint, lights, etc at cost.

are you crazy? XJs are worse off road in ever category but obiviously they have more storage.

You smoking crack? The only thing wranglers have going for them is the size. There is just as much shit out there for Cherokees, 10x more room for supplies/people, same bulletproof 4.0 straight 6, and you can pick a decent one up for 3 grand.

If he's looking to just buy something stock and wheel it then YES a Wrangler is the best out there but if he's talking about modding that goes out the window. You have to understand where I'm coming from.....I work at a Truck Accessories place. I don't know the meaning of a STOCK truck. My bosses DD is a 2006 GMC 2500 rolling around on 38's pushing 550hp and 1100lb/ft of suity black diesel smoke... Our SHOP TRUCK is a 2002 S10 that lays frame...although it is a 2.2 5spd so it's slow as ****.

I will definitely keep this in mind.

I always liked the K-5 blazers. Preferably an 87 or newer with FI. I had a 85 with a 3" lift and 33's and it went anywhere I wanted it too. That truck was fun, It didn't matter if I bounched it off of trees because it was just an old truck. LOL

Mine looked alot like this one but a little more beat up.

[Shah]

That thing looks like at beast..

[kammi10]

those things are a beast

[AJ 87SC]

I know I am going to get flamed for this....

Nissan Xterra.
I have one with 265,000 miles on it. stock Motor, trans, and axles
I have taken that thing hunting/off roading with my buds for YEARS, and have TRIED to get it stuck..

My brother has a RangeRover and we went off roading and he got stuck, and I pulled him out, in my old ragged out Xterra.

Find an old "offroad edition" for 1/4 of the price and problems of the Rand Rover...

just my .02
P.S. read about it on any review...That thing is AMAZINg off road
