For a basic run of the mill straight of the factory conveyor belt 4x4, you don`t need to change anything to go offroading, Most others need lifting, or difflocker fitting. The only other 4x4 that comes close is the German Mercedes G Wagon, but it weighs to much, which is why they fit them standard with front, rear, and middle lockers.

Off the shelf fun, just unpack and get muddy.

I still can`t get over that they have removed the front grills on the new defender. Best Aircon on the market (so long as you were moving)
 
I don't have a truck. How about a Yugo? ooooooooooh... get you egg holder, tea warmer, small can of beer holders ready! I am feeling a song coming on. And yes, joining in is okay! With a Yugo!
Angle... please get your tea holder ready!

Alan, upon watching this again, is there a bit of, oooo, authenticity, going on there?
 
It's too bad Volvo never made any off road vehicles. I had a "75" 245DL estate. My last car. Put many a Ferd, Chevy and Dodge to shame. Looked so bad no one would dare get near you. Built like a tank.

I had it for a year and a half. Bought it for 650USD. In that time I: Never registered it, never paid taxes on it,Never insured it, never changed the oil, never washed it. Only put in some gas and few drops of oil now and then. Sold it for 350 dollars. Ha!! Complete Victory!!! Then I left the country.

Yes. Its a nice potted history. Here are the words... I found them on the internet. Its a bit long. The terror weapon had one of those volvo estates V70 I think. She crashed it into a big concrete bollars once, which really got me down. Actually the concrete block hit her...

They say that the miracles of the world
are African pyramids
They say that the miracles of the world
are great rivers of India

But there was no miracle
like a miracle
when my old dad parked
Yugo 45 in our yard

The whole neighbourhood gathered
together with a half of relatives
The other half couldn't come
couldn't come because of envy

My old mom cooked some food
and baked traditional cakes
my old dad went to the store
to get some more "logistics"

Chorus:
It was a good time
everything on credit, everything for the folk and friends
pour some soup in your car
and go to Trieste to buy some jeans

It was a good time
going on picnics and the seaside
lots of laugh in the house
Yugo 45 in the yard

Neighbour Franjo was driving it
to sell his apples
neighbour Momo was driving it
to deliver his wife in the hospital
Uncle Mirso was driving it
when he was going to f*ck with whores
I was also driving it
if I managed to steal the keys

Chorus
One night I was peeking
I heard voices from the yard
Momo, Franjo and uncle Mirso
were talking quietly
You can't hit your neighbour,
so they drank one shot and split up
That night it looked so small,
our Yugo 45

We escaped one morning
with two nylon bags
first we were driving by the Lenin's Street
and then by the Street of Ljubljana

Today we live much better
new city and new apartment
our old dad made it big
he is a minister of our canton

But in my head
there is always the same picture, the same flash-back
old house, little yard
and Yugo 45 parked there

But in my head
there is always the same picture, the same flash-back
old house, little yard
and Yugo 45
 
Alan would you envision this sung with Accordions and Tubas or is it more of a Folk guitar ballad?

Agree the XC's and most every 4x4 is crap. My most hated is the BMW X's. Used to have to work with the factory in SC. Truly over priced pieces of shit.

The older Land Cruisers can give you a run for the money. Pre 1990's maybe. Now they have just gone the way of all the other suburban tractors.

Frankly, give me a forest machine on an open highway. Nobody is even going to approach you.

You could politely toss tailgater's into the ditch.
