I'd quite like a Defender 90. Not seen too many around and I think the Land Rover place has closed up now. Used to see the odd 90 and even more rare 110 but I haven't for a couple of years now.

There's beauty in everything, probably even your ugly ass.
My ass is fine, thank you; I squat.
The gladiator; options for days! Just choose your style of ugly.

They're a nice looking bus,
but the Cruiser is infinately nicer to drive and maintain.
They wound the defender up a couple of years ago. Low KM 90 series wagons are still drawing huge money here, good 110s and 130s keep their value pretty well too, but none of them really sold in huge numbers.
Some straight up haters in this thread. :) one day I will have a Gladiator or a Brute and it will be beautiful.
I now question your judgement, Sir. And to think, I voted for you. It's like 2016 all over again.

I liked the old skool Comanche and Cherokee, I always kinda viewed them as the last of the solid built jeeps (no plastics and cheap parts). I had a 87 YJ wrangler and a 91 Comanche truck. Both were great vehicles, really liked that 4.0 in that Comanche. But they weren't built like the old cj's, etc.
Landcruisers are badass, the 79 series is well known around the world for being a workhorse.
That said, I'll stand by my original statement, that thing posted at the beginning of the thread is freaking ugly.

Bruce Jenner's truck?
We had Defenders in Iraq. Good vehicles.
I'm assuming you sat in the tray? There's not a lot of room in those bad boys at 6'4"...
I did most of the driving. It's shocking how many people in the US Army can't drive stick.

Not like basic in '86 when you learned on a jeep.....I can still hear my DS yelling at me every time I stalled out on a hill 
My first car was a stick...in 2005.Not like basic in '86 when you learned on a jeep.....I can still hear my DS yelling at me every time I stalled out on a hill
My first "drive" was on a 1969 Ford 3/4 truck, three on the tree... I was 7, and couldn't reach the peddles...but I kept that truck straight as I could in that hay field. Realised as I got a little older, I wasn't needed, as a bungee cord kept the wheels straight at $.010 a bale in the barn!
