Offroad-Express

Cant say im a fan in the slightest. Looks like an oversized rav 4

Notice the lack of footage after he went through the puddle

It shares platform with this scary thing

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.

or one of those susuki farmworkers...

The original 4WD's such Jeep Wrangler and Land Rover Defender are both still beam axle.
For now at least.

Wow, watching that was four minutes of my life i'll never get back again... What were they thinking?

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

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

but true

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

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. They look like they crawl pretty well, just have to stay away from deeper water I guess. lol

Hey that was uncalled for, im a ford man, not some chrysler fan.......

It will be happy days once we can buy the motors without the truck, Ive been told that 5.6s potential exceeds the ls motor by quite a bit

ahh the good old vk56........ bloody nice engines... and boy do they sound good.
