I would put the well-done double cab would be fun, NOW, not as a dream rig. Would put that or an FZJ80 as the rigs I would most like to swap Monty for.
What would be your 'guilty pleasure' 4WD vehicle?

I am going to buy a brand new aluminum flatfender body and either make or buy a brand new frame. I will use my current Jeep drivetrane which is in my mind absolutely perfect for a flatty, and buy full width 1 ton gear for for the 7 . The 7 I will beat untill it is dead, and the flatfender will be babied untill I die.

Okay, I'll play. I'd take a Ural, register it, leave all the markings, and drive that b*tch to work:greg:

I want a '03-05 white, four door TRD Tacoma with the previous model's aluminum wheels, a 3 or 4 inch lift, SAS and 33" BFG M/Ts. Super clean and very simple, not a bunch of extra stuff done to it.
OR...
An FJ45 like this one. Maybe not quite as tall and I definatly would have a set of Buckshots or Groundhawgs because they're cool and old school.

I built my jeep to be dual purpose, I used to drive it to work everyday. The crawling part of it really took the street worthy drive away from me. Now I am going longer, lower, wider and the thing will make every Mountee cringe.
During the build, I have had the opportunity to wheel my crewcab. That was fun, but the mentality of "guilty pleasure" certainly took over. Coming home with Idaho pinstriping on my uber-expensive tow rig is a big no-no, but I have done it three times now. If I could let loose and drop some coin on it, I would put a solid axle 60, some gears, selectable lockers and almost no lift. I would get a utility/shell for tools and the like and pretty much make a baja chase rig as opposed to anything ready to rockcrawl. There is nothing better than feeling the duramax spool up. With a trail in front of me, I dont want to crawl, I want to know what 660ft/lb will do.
I like the burb and expedition references, but a crew cab pickup is better for my style. I like the 4x4 vans too, quilgley vans get much respect.

That's what I'm thinking, an 80 or 100 series mildly built with factory lockers to replace the Tahoe my wife drives.

My other one would be a very well built M37, maybe a custom 4 door model! Run 37's no lift and slap a cummins in it.

Hubba hubba. I need to add the M-715 to my list. I hoarded a Buick 455/400 for a few years in hopes of dropping it in an M-715, but never had the funds to get one.
The 4dr Rubi does the job of the '97 Cruza (unless you have 5+ passengers), but the '97 is pretty cool.
