My best 4×4 choices

Land Rover Defender 90 TDI 5

Since 1968 I have been building and running offroad vehicles on and off the roads in all conditions.

I have rebuilt most model CJ’s, 8 in total, all powered by Chevy 350’s, had Ford Bronco’s, Range Rovers and Discoveries and owned many Jappers.

After all those years and around 20 4×4’s my favorite is the 1974 Ford Bronco with a 302 and auto. My best offroader the DEFENDER 90 TDI 5. My best all round 4×4 is a 4 Litre V8 injected, suspension only lifted RANGE ROVER.

I AM NOT A LAND ROVER FELLA. I WOULD RATHER OWN A USA 4X4 but all round for me they can’t match the DEFENDER 90.
