    The Short Wheel Base SUV Thread

    Out of sheer boredom I began gathering a list of SWB SUVs. I know I am missing some, and that is where you all come in, however, I have criteria:

    - Is considered a "sport utility vehicle" or "light truck"
    - Only 2 doors
    - Has a SWB
    - Has a stock xfer case (no 4x4 lifted Ford Feisas on 35"s please)
    - Non military, consumer vehicle

    1) Isuzu VehiCROSS





    __________________________________________
    2) Isuzu Amigo/Rodeo Sport





    __________________________________________
    3) Isuzu Trooper RS (1st and 2nd gen)







    __________________________________________
    4) Dodge Raider/Mitsubishi Montero





    __________________________________________
    5) Daihatsu Rocky

    Slow down, son! I can only post 20 pics at a time!!!

    Do the RAV4 and CRV really count? They all have 4 doors, correct?

    EDIT: OK, the older RAV4 had 2 doors, but does it have a transfer case? Man, that thing is so wimpy looking I don't know if I should add it or not!

    As stated at the top:

    - Is considered a "sport utility vehicle" or "light truck"
    - Only 2 doors
    - Has a SWB
    - Has a stock xfer case (no 4x4 lifted Ford Feisas on 35"s please)
    - Non military, consumer vehicle


    What else can I specify? Does the RAV4 have a 4x4 shifter or is it AWD and that's it? I mean, I suppose I should include the Jeep Liberty then too, even though it is pretty wimpy as well...

    D90 is there, there's a 2 door Tahoe? Does it have a SWB? I am thinking Bronco II might need to go in there...

    Need to add another criteria - this is going to become a very long thread...

    Suzuki X-90
    Chevy K-10 Blazer
    International Scout / Scout II

    ... and I would add more but this is the most I can type while simultaneously rocking the baby to sleep in the dark.

    Well since it's SWB K-10 or internationals probably wouldn't fit in...

    I think SWB is <90 wheel base...

    And I don't think the X90 has a low range gear box... But they are fun cars!
