OFF road, out of the box and fresh off the lot, there's really nothing that's going to go toe to toe with a Jeep. Aftermarket is aftermarket. You spend a ton, you can make your Jeep or anything else super capable.





Hi, the toyota 4runner, tacoma, lexus gx460, nissan xterra, nissan frontier would all like to say hello.

If we are talking stock for stock and older: all of the vehicles listed, all suzuki 4x4s, the international scout, older broncos, older pathfinders...and so on.

When a stock rubicon stopped being able to run the rubicon, it became irrelevant to me.

Signed,

The guy rocking a 4runner, xterra, and 4.0 rubicon.

I own an xterra. I think VERY highly of them. A stock Rubicon is the premier off the lot / stock vehicle for off-roading from all of the reading I've done even prior to owning a jeep. The aforementioned are all kickass I'm sure. I love all cars... and I'm not trying to start a war with ya, bud. It is just more evident that most people would agree with my sentiment.

Dana 44 axles, a 4:1 t-case, two solid axles, plenty of ground clearance, lockers, disconnect swaybar, and can go through water as long as you can see the hood... all pretty slick.

Also, as I have read, most of these vehicles mentioned would do more than a noob would have the balls to do... so it's all really irrelevant in terms of practicality. As daily drivers the non-Jeep choices make for more day to day practical.

For an experience that is one of a kind, then Jeep.
