Since we are on the topic, how about expanding the discussion into plusses/concerns/needed upgrades to turn a CJ into a good trail rig (say, running 33-35s, one locker).

Any thoughts with the Mxxis or Truxas on wear? I have been very surprised in that regard with my BFGs (59k, and counting, even with some extra rubber left on the rocks).

I run Big-O A/Ts on my Yukon XL, and so far so good (30,000 miles or so?), but not as agressive as I want on Monty

alright, looking at my options for new tires since I killed one yesterday. Has anyone run either the Cooper Discoverer S/T or Big-O Big Foot X-T? Thoughts on them? Main questions are tread life, ice/packed snow traction and sidewall strength? Stay on the bead when aired down? Reason...

Man, I would love a Pinzgauer. But an open troop carrier!

Go over onto the UOOC site http://www.utahoffroad.com under for sale. One there to check out.

A few months ago, someone posted a mid-90s Grand Cherokee for sale, think for a friend. If I recall, nicely built with lockers front a rear. Kind of a purple color. For the life of me I can't find the ad doing a search. Anyone know what rig I am talking about and if it is still for sale?

Related semi-hi jack. How much lift is needed for 33s on either a Taco or 4runner (thinking late 90s or so models).

E-85 is more PR then true improvement in many ways. The use of food crops for fuel has driven up world food prices (bad news for the poorest of the poor) and deforestation for farming has been happening in Brazil. Cost is kept artificially high, not only because of farm subsidizes, but...

Not alot of roads across Alaska. Seems like to make that part of the route it would have to be truly "off road" for some very long streches.

Thanks, all.

Care to point me to the best place (and recommended product) for airing down my tires?

Thanks for the link, that is what I wanted to see! Looks like a great meet.

I assume someone went to the winter convention....lets hear about it!

Ahhh, nice. Nothing like making wheelers sound like racist rednecks. Fun driving episode to watch, but act like adults, please.

If (like me) you can't make the meeting, besure to send comments. San Juan County and Monticello have been as or more agressive than any other governments in Utah in fighting to keep trails open (I have had some interesting discussions with the mayor over the years). They deserve our...

You probably caught almost as many fish as we did out on the ice that day.

So, family friendly reasonable price and I take it will be used not just as a trail rig. Based on that, Grand Cherokee and mid-90s Land Cruisers I would think are most versitile. Tacoma Double Cab may work well also. But think outside the box as well. I have used my Montero Sport for the...

Depending on what you will be doing, if it is daily driver as well etc, don't limit your choices to Jeep and Toyota.

Reading threads on either a new rig or concept is always fun, but highly predictable. Can't recall a single one that people took to warmly. Based on looks, I recall the Liberty not looking eough like a Jeep, the Commander looking too much like a Cherokee, the new JK too square and some...
