      yep most definatly. Back in the day i bought a 1980 ford bronco for 700. added 300 for 4 31" recap mudders and boom mud truck. beat the snot out of it. it was mechanicaly solid just really rusty body. wouldnt pass inspection. I used to slap mud over the stickers. it met its demise in the woods too. Ran it out of gas. Left it overnight and returned to find it stripped. I had gotten 3 years of hard wheeling out of it at that point and wasnt too much left. I was annoyed but not much. Mainly id had been happy to recoup 300 for scrapping it.

      For sure! I used to have a 1969 Jeepster Commando and all I had was regular Goodyear Suburbanite snow tire retreads. The places I have been on are way steeper and longer than that hill they climbed and mud 8-12" deep. With chains on I could go in 1-1 /2' of snot on logging trails. If that Jeep had even snow tires on he would have done much better.

      The engine in that XJ is amazing and lasts up to 300k miles. Plus its lightweight aluminum. If the jeep had better tires and a small lift like the land cruiser it would be fine. My buddy has a land cruiser and my uncle has an XJ both identical to the ones in the video. The land cruiser has had so many more problems than the XJ. Idk if they have the same motors, just going off of general stock specs for each car.

      Malik Martin Malik Martin Wow...do you realize what you sound like? Did you use a thesaurus to compose your lil rant there? In conclusion, you're using that Porsche vs Wrangler video to support your statements? How did you equate that video as a win for the Porsche when it had to bypass half the obstacles the Jeep did effortlessly? You're delusional. So all this money that tire manufacturers like Nitro, BFG, Cooper ect spend on R&D is just a ruse they conjured up, preying on the offroad community's insecurities of being accepted by their peers...because big tires = cool? "No scientific proof" that an aired down tire creates a bigger footprint, which in turn results in better grip and traction...really? You need scientific proof of that? Smh. You obviously haven't tried traversing terrain beyond the pavement of the "real world" with & without oversized tires both aired up and down because had you done so it wouldn't take the figment of one's imagination to differentiate the results and you wouldn't be so quick to deem it redundant and obsolete. As for No automaker producing a truck with oversized wheels straight off the assembly line...you might want to check into that because I can name you a dozen off the top of my head. Maybe you're under the impression that those that wheel and offroad simply slap a set of oversized treads on their vehicle and call it good and are unaware of the ramifications of upsetting the balance and integrity of the vehicle when oversized tires are outfitted onto their trucks. The offroad industry has the biggest aftermarket which is where upgraded suspensions, axels, drive trains ect to withstand the rigors of offroading in order to restore the imbalance that bigger tires triggered. So much so, that automakers are producing them outright with aforementioned upgrades. I do applaud how you went above and beyond to debunk the myth of the oversized tires debacle but once one shifts through all your gratuitous vocabulary, your opinion is still subject to debate

I’d try to find backroads that hadn’t been plowed yet and go off roading on the roads. 2 Feet of snow and the tires would just rooster tail it ! Now I got a F-250 and she’s too heavy to go off-roading. But a good work truck

    if he had better tires I think it might do not half bad.
    if i bought a 500 dollar car I would do same thing.

    An un modded jeep is shit off road. Even pretend 4wd's like subaru foresters will leave these things in the dust.

      cyc00000 Ok, most of the 80's in the usa didnt come factory with diffs, and the price differance bettween a 80 with lockers vs with out will allow you to put lockers in either the jeep or an unlocked 80. So yeah...
