Yea I agree with you guys. I personally wouldn't start with the X as well. But this makes it that much more cool.

I guess that is true, if you throw a lot of money at any vehicle you can make it off road worthy...

Your rig must be differant than mine.....for the life of me I can't find how to move the transfer case to low....I must have got the non off-road package...

if you are trying to build a serious offroad machine this certainly isnt the best base im sure...

this particular one is built for one main capability - fun. and in in that respect its very very capable. tearing around with the manual transmission is an absolute blast, and id dare you not to be smiling ear to ear when behind the wheel.

preserving on-road fun wast a concern because i have this little guy to quench that thirst -

lol, Different.

I said I agree, it's not the best for off road, but still cool, and still doesn't change the fact that it is capable. Maybe not for the most hard core shit out there.

You may have missed a few threads over the years. Let me help you out there.
