Advice on new multipurpose 4x4

Thu Dec 30, 2010 3:10 pm

I think this might be good place to start getting advice for my new 4x4 which should be equally good for on road and off road trips. long and short trips with and without family, good combination of performance and comfort.
May be i am asking for too much but i know many of you will definitely help me out selecting the best one.

... have to admit, the X-Terra is a good compromise..... and it has a lot you can spend your money on... usefull and useless

X Tera is a good choice ...its only drawback is its cart sprung rear...makes it bounce a lot especially off road.

But comparing prie to performace its a great buy...in fact I was looking at this too when I was "between" FJ's
