What is the best 4x4 in history!!!?

Answer 1

Toyota LandCruiser. The only car to cross the North Pole.
Jeep Wrangler is great, but the quality is poor.
Land Rovers are expensive and not too reliable.

Answer 2

Probably the old Land Rover - not the new one. This is shown by the fact that almost all armed forces throughout the world used them for a long time, along with almost all of the big expeditions in Africa, across the Sahara...they were probably the most capable and reliable vehicle in the world for many years. America produced quite a few 4WDs in those years, but when reliability and capability was most important (like in a desert, hundreds of miles from the nearest person), the Land Rover always won out. Very easy to work on, they had mainly flat sheetmetal, using aluminium bodywork to avoid rust problems, and held together with external pop-rivets so they could be repaired anywhere in the world. All the glass was flat as well, so any glazier in the world could make a replacement windshield or window. Not a fast or comfortable vehicle, they were all business - and did they deliver! They have been more places in the world (especially places where there is no road) than any other vehicle - ever.

Answer 3

I own a shop, and this was a question on the history channel the other day! According to them, it was the Willy's Jeep, but I'll bet a few of the guys that took trips trough the jungle, and on expeditions across the north & south poles may have a few comments to make about that one. It certainly could be a debatable question, but I must go with the Jeep, and this is "only" because I saw it on TV. One my propose the question "Define Best"? It would really depend on the situation.
Glad to help out, Good Luck!!!

Answer 4

Toughest 4x4

Answer 5

Another vote for the Toyota Landcruiser. It is the legendary capable, durable expedition rig that includes high reliability in the mix.

It comes in many different models to match any exploration or work application...from flatbeds (tray) and utility cab-chassis to short-wheelbase wagons, long-wheelbase wagons and troop carriers, and full-luxury, no-hold-barred wagons (80, 100 and 200 series) with a variety of gas and diesel drivetrains.

Answer 6

The U.S. Army's original jeep! 50 years old and still being made.My grand father worked at the plant in Toledo,OH from 1920-1932.It was known as a "Willie's"Jeep before 1946 when American Motors began to form.And "Overland Co." before that.There is an entry in Wikipedia for them.

Answer 7

that would have to be the Willy's jeep,those was what the army first used,those things would literally drive through a lake and come out running,those were actually the first and best ones that was available,and still today the jeep remains one of the best 4 wheel drive vehicles ever to be sold,its the bod design,and the way the weight is balanced out on them,that makes them go so good,i usually have one ,but don't at the present time,but i,ll find another one,good luck on it.

Answer 8

I used to think salt-treated pine because of it is reliable, prevalent and inexpensive. But I gotta tell you - I recently made some furniture with some really fine oak 4x4's and they just blew me away! Great finish, sturdy, and didn't bow nearly as bad as some pine pieces I've dealt with.

Answer 9

Thats a tossup between the Hummer h1, and the mercedes unimog.

Answer 10

Jeeps good. Hummers better. But the best period is the...

Mercedes Unimog.

A friend of mine has one. Ground clearance is impressive.
