If you had to start over, what different rig would you start with?

That's what I love about that shot. I could be just about anywhere.

Better still going anywere !!!!!

I have to ask because I'm also considering swapping to a Power Wagon, how bad is the mpg?

My 12 ecoboost is 13mpg (I'm a very spirited driver, lol) and I'm looking to either swap to a 14 ecoboost or a power wagon.

Very spirited driving will get single digits in a wagon. I drive like an old man and have seen as high as 15 in mine. Normally around 11-12 combined for me, 8 towing and wheeling.

My current setup is a 2012 F150....

I would have bought another diesel excursion and built that up. At the time we were only a family of 5 and my truck fit the bill. Now we are a family of 7 and we don't all fit in my truck.

I've got an '08 Rubicon with Shrockworks front and back, and Rockhard on the sides. Garvin roof rack, a warren powerplant winch, 2 jerry cans, and a HiLift. I'm switching to a 99 Ram 2500 crew cab -- but not because I really want to. If I win the lottery? .... I've been stuck for twenty minutes. Too many choices, all of them good. A Ford Raptor? A Sportsmobile? Build a Toyota Tacoma? A 6x6 G-Wagon? I don't know. I've been thinking about the big truck for a while now, I think I might just see where that goes -- It's been a long time since I did an engine swap. Everything is a tradeoff.

I've got a 2013 Subaru Forester and it's been a great vehicle so far with the upgrades I've done to it.
If I had to start over I'd probably go with a Toyota 4Runner or a LR 110. I think both would be a fun build and capable rig.

Currently a 90 yota dlx ext cab 3.0 L. Totally love this truck.
the new 4runners and LC79 series make me drool however.

Currently in a 5th Gen 4Runner - love it, but I would also love a 100 series LC/LX!

Everytime I see them, I always stare and gawk. Love them, so capable yet understated.

Been thinking about this a bit lately, currently have the manual Turbo Diesel 80 series Cruiser, been thinking about going back to a petrol (gas) engine and go with an auto FZJ105 Cruiser or GU Patrol, yank the original motor out and replace it with a Chev LS2 or LS3.

Always wanted a Defender 90 or the dual cab 110 but they're a bit thin on the ground down here compared to the Cruisers and Patrols.

View attachment 15305 Current rig is a 2010 Hummer H3 Alpha. It's a billy goat, front and rear lockers from factory with a 4:1 transfer case and 5.3 V8. If I had to choose a new vehicle now I am VERY interested in the new Chevy Colorado ZR2 with a baby duramax diesel. Front and rear lockers from factory and great gas mileage.

I absolutely love my Tacoma, but knowing what I know now and how I use my rig, I think I would go for a 4Runner of the same year (15). Better interior space, I wouldn't need a topper on the back, a more up-to-date engine, and it would probably ride better.

Although if something ever happened to the Tacoma, I'd probably buy a much older 4Runner so I could go back to daily driving something more sporty and car like.
