Gone of the capable Nissan 4x4s. That independant suspension is RUBBISH for offroad.

70 series cruiser if you're looking at buying a half decent late model 4x4.

Beethoven, tux with a cowboy hat and a pile of crap to drive over (not to mention the hill) :lol:

The golden years really have passed for japanese 4wds if this is it.

Three minutes of farting around with classical music to see a fat pig of a truck drive over a hill and through a puddle? Who was that ad aimed at?

What's the bet the electrics were fried after that puddle :P

There's probably a hundred useless features in that thing that are just something to break or add weight.

Not a fan. A lot of new trucks seem to be going in this direction.

I'd love to own a Jeep Rubicon later model 4dr with a long arm kit, bigger tyres, trimmed guards, nice flares + soft top. :P They look like they crawl pretty well, just have to stay away from deeper water I guess. lol
