Well, I guess if you relocate the spare tire, you can haul stuff, but I'm not seeing a whole lot of cargo room there as it is.

Ok so let’s have a fair comparison. That is a truck, and it is very capable. In all fairness tho it weighs a lot more than the wrangler... and it costs a lot more than the wrangler at $40,000. Let’s assume a rubicon wrangler would cost about $30,000. That leaves you $10,000 for a long arm kit, tires, wheels, bumpers, winch ect.

I still would put all my money on the wrangler. That thing wouldn't even fit through the trails where I go.

What about turn radius, approach angle, water fording, what about removing the top on a nice day? True the dodge is a nice truck but it simply is a different animal than a wrangler truck would be. It can pull more and haul more but the wrangler truck is just more fun imo.

It’s also a wrangler that doesn't look like hummer... I kid I kid.

OMG haha hummer

Ok,, do a dropdown tailgate and I'll take one now! How long do you think the bed would be, tailgate open(included)?? Would it have enough room to fit a 250cc dirtbike?? That would make my life so much easier!
Who sells those d-ring mounts,, I've seen them before but cant remember where,,
Thanks,
Steve

I know what you mean, I remember seeing them somewhere before but can't remember. I think they were something like $60 each. Thought it was quadratec but I can't seem to find them anymore.
