If you could get any 4x4?

[N-Smooth]

1. ram runner- cause they're rare compared to raptors, have more travel and i just like them more. i see way too many raptors now. i saw one at the dealer and i almost had a heart attack

2. power wagon- awesome truck, no explanation needed

3. raptor- yeah, i'd still totally cruise one if i couldn't get the other two. some beefing would need to be done so the frame doesn't bend but nbd

Raptor?! Sheesh--Childs play Planetary axles, double caliper brakes, 44" tall tires, 19,500 GVWR, Lots of power and pure sexyness.... My (make-believe) money would go straight towards the Ford F554 if I was forced to buy something from an American car manufacturer

This.

To heck with American as long as this is a fantasy thread! To heck with a Japanese 4x4 either made in Nippon or the US of A. As a loyal and Honorary Member of the British Empire, I want a new Land Rover LR4. But what I really want is a brand new Land Rover not marketed in the US of A since 1997 : Defender 90 especially a Defender 90 Pick-up. Other than that I will take a JK Rubicon as that is as close to a real Defender 90 as I can get. Anything new is a fantasy to me however as I am poor as dirt.

well would buy the powerwagon with no motor trans or tcase put a cummins with an alison automatic and a 4 speed atlas since we are dreaming that would be a sweet truck

 

[Gravy]

Ive driven a ram runner. And I forgot about them. Linked rear is cooler than the raptor.

Or Rot Box's fantasy rig

 

[N-Smooth]

yeah, and more travel iirc with 14" f/r against ford's 11.2"/12.1"

Yeah... that would be it.

 

[RogueJeepr]

Somethin with more than 4 cylinders .

 

[Cascadia]

I think I would go with a jku rubicon. I miss having a jeep and it would fill the void.

 

[Greg]

If you're stuck on a JK and had $50k, I would say buy an older JKU and have it fitted with either a Hemi or a LS1... Dana 60's, 37's and a TeraFlex PreRunner suspension with Speed Bumps. Beefy, fast and capable of haulin' ass in the desert!

 

[Cascadia]

True. If you could buy used.

But...........If Jeep made the Nukizer I wouldn't even second guess it. Even more so if they had an extended cab or 4 door.

 

[frieed]

I'd keep my jku rubicon, but i'd swap the new 3.6 for a 3.5 tt ecoboost out of the f-150. 365hp, 420lb-ft of torque beginning @ 1500 rpm

 

[Johnny Quest]

PowerWagon (especially if it had a Cummins)
JKU w/ JK8 and factory portals

Burnsville JKU 3/4 ton flatbed

 

[Greg]

True. If you could buy used...

Yeah, but everyone else is dreaming & blowing the budget...

That's what I'd do if I had $50k to spend on a Jeep... used JKU build to the Hilt!

 

[STAG]

To be honest I kinda like H3's... but 2010 is the last year for them.

 

[sixstringsteve]

I dig the H3's too, no shame in that. I especially like the H3T. Did they ever end up making a single-cab?




did the HX ever make it to production?

 

[Greg]

No single cab H3, but the 4 door H3T looks killer! Could you imagine one with a SAS and 37's! :freak:

 

[sixstringsteve]

Could you imagine one with a SAS and 37's! :freak:

No need to imagine: I think they're a little too big.

 

[frieed]

I'm sorry, the H3's look like a cherokee with a thyroid problem...

The Mopar ImMortal is a Jeep Wrangler featuring portal axles, a 5.7-liter HEMI and off-road bumpers. Military-grade portal axle ends are engineered to mate to Mopar’s Pro Rock and Power Wagon performance axles and adapted to fit the suspension. Portal axle ends provide 5 inches of lift and contain a 1.5 gear reduction. Combined with the 4:1 transfer case, the result is a hard-core 100:1 crawl ratio. The Mopar ImMortal is sheathed in Jeep performance body armor for intense protection.
