    You should see it in person, Billy! It is really wicked! Obviously they will never market something with tires that big, but it is a cool concept!

    I like em' all and will take one of each . The VW is my least favorite, the rear fenders look bizarre.

    Back on topic, the lower forty is a awesome jeep design because it was built to keep a low center of gravity while having amazing offroad capabilties because of its 40" wheels.

    I think they should design a similar jeep based around 35" tires to make it very offroad capable while keeping the ride quality. 40" tires would be too big for everyday driving.

    Yeah I always loved the Toyota one, I definitely like this Jeep way better though, and as far as that Vdub thing, yuck, that is terrible
