If the option was to not sell any I would go with 2, 3 then 1. But for best results...sell them all, get a SWB Badrol and enjoy the extra cash for any accessories that you may want. Winch..lockers...

Humm...F-150 Raptor...yes..but who want s to wait a year?

forget all of the above and get a FJ Cruiser .....the 2011 has an amazing sound system to boot.

with an Icon suspension and a TRD Supercharger we will all have troubel keeping up with you.

BUT ...remember .......whatever car you buy you need to get Beadlock rims on it .....going by your propensity for pop outs:smiley13::smiley2:

I must hold the record of fixing how may ....4 to 5 of your pop outs ???? :smiley8:

Then get the Raptor for the US ASAP

Even the Hummer Alpha with the V8 could work or you could get Dr Abdulla drop in a Hemi in a JK for you ....you will need flying lessons with it too

AND whatever you get DON'T don't forget the beadlocks

FJ? ....they like to roll over and play dead when you don't want them too.

Better than the over heating badrool...sell them all and get the limited edition Iceland Offroad Lazy Cow! It's only ~250K - offroad modified and its V8 with all the luxury you could want for yourself and your posse.

Forget all of that. For a REAL unique power house, buy an old (93-98) Grand cherokee and drop the Magnum V10 from a dodge viper in it (same engine, 2 extra cylinders), get the 6 speed manual behind it and watch the world pass by in a haze!!!

It sounds far fetched but it is possible. Only slight modification to the firewall and a custom built transmission housing/cross members/wiring and you are good to go! Wish I had the money for that project! :(

There is no perfect car Bipin ..

1 - Pajero : maintenance is expensive & the accessories are not available
2 - Patrol : over heated problem & clutch burned quickly
3 - Cherokee : axle, shaft & power steering problems ( Jeep thing)
4- Raptor : Big body will never let you enjoy (your recent car already has same issue)
5- FJC : hood dimensions is stupid, no balance & they will stop the production by 2012

My advice is to sacrifice & chose on of these ... there are many other cars but it is not that perfect such as New Nissan patrol & Land cruisers ... definitely you will lose the front & rear pampers !!!!
