OK, hypothetical situation: You are going wheelin' at the rubicon & your rig vanishes the night before. You can have your choice of taking a loaner vehicle through, but none of them are Jeeps. Assuming they are equally built, which would you choose:

A) Early Bronco
B) Suzuki Samarai
C) Land Rover D90
D) Toyota Truck
E) Full Size Bronco
F) None, I love Jeeps so much I can't envision myself driving anything else.
G) Scout II

BTW - I answer "A" (still)

E - The full size bronco definately. Comfortable, V-8 Power, can carry everything you could possible want, mostly convertable, easy to fix, relatively cheap to buy. I'm not sure which I enjoy driving more the Bronc or the Jeep. Later

hah! I would have to go with the Sammy because its smaller than my CJ5 and since I have done all of my practice with my CJ, anything bigger would give me trouble. I figure that what I could squeeze my CJ5 through, a Sammy should be able to follow.

Jeep...need I say more?

 

[Pete88YJ]

I have an old Ford, so I could say A.
I have a british car, so I could say C.

My real answer would be F.

I'll go off the board and take an early Land Cruiser (70's).

I'm biased since I already have a Zuk, but since in this situation it's not mine and I don't have to pay for anything, I'll take the D90. I'd just love to beat on something expensive and cause some serious breakage.

A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A

or A

All silltness aside,

ive owned 5 jeeps and 4 early broncos and i love them both,
will have a jeep for quite awhile because they are easier to find parts and work on plus they outperform early broncos in stock form

Ted Nugent would answer A also

(Take this with a pinch of humor, y'all)

Well *sniff*, I suppose *sniff*, in the end, if I couldn't have a Jeep *sniff*, I'd have to stick with my Scout since all of ya seem to be trying to rob me of spare axles anyways to put underneath your Jeeps /wwwthreads_images/icons/shocked.gif Good thing I upgraded to those Chevy one-tons /wwwthreads_images/icons/tongue.gif. Might just have to boycott this board since for some odd reason, Scouts have been given the snub out of possible choices. /wwwthreads_images/icons/frown.gif But then again, Since it's a Jeep Thing... I wouldn't understand /wwwthreads_images/icons/laugh.gif Good thing too... it's a Scout thing... Since I do understand.

My Scout is like my website, I'm working on it. 79 IH ScoutII, Anything else is just a 4X4... 345, 1-ton axles, Detroits F/R. 99 F-350 SD, PowerStroke.

I'd have to with
A. Chevy Blazer/GMC Jimmy(I've had increditably good luck with these
B. International Scout SSII
C. Early Bronco
D.Land Rover Defender 90(like I'd spend that much money)

Sorry about leaving out the Scout, I knew there was one I forgot to list. -Mel

I've never been to rubicon but if I couldn't have a Jeep I would take D. the toy is a great off road machine when done right and since the body on them rust out so fast the dents aren't a problem. I am puzzled as to why a scout wasn't a choice.

 

[Guest]

oh I see Scout has been added so I will be riding in that since that is all my father inlaw will take wheelin.

 

[JEEPN]

Yep, if you're throwing the Scout II back into the mix, I'll change mine to a Scout. Not that beating on the D90 wound't be fun, but those Scouts go anywhere.

No worries Mel, just ribbing ya... I'll just have to make sure the Scout gets bigger and builds up a reputation...

[Mel85CJ]

OK, OK I'm OFFICIALLY changing my post to add the Scout, sorry my husband called me here at work while I was in the middle of writing the post & I lost my train of thought. Anyway... what was I saying again?
Oh.. and remember it's a LOANER, not that you'd be buying it or selling it or keeping it, just what would you jump in & drive for a day or two.

Oh, and no offense taken by the Scout guys. /wwwthreads_images/icons/wink.gif
