Default If Jeeps were gone....

I was thinking, if all of the Jeeps in the world were gone (either never made or all "raptured" up to Jeep heaven) what would you use to go wheeling?

I always liked the VW Thing or a VW powered dune buggy.

I guess Suzuki Samuri's and Hummers are altenatives.

Any others?

I would go with the Suzuki Samuri if I was going to wheel hard.
If I was looking for a daily driver and a once in the while trail ride, I would get the Hummer or the Toyota FJ.

I think I'd wheel a 1985 Toyota 4runner or an early 80's toy pickup. They work great, are tough as nails and when you double up the t-cases, they crawl over anything.

I would have to agree with the M-37 dodge power wagon or a late 70's blazer. I did own a 78 and it did great.
