What kind of off roading are you looking at doing?
Is it going to be back country dirt roads with the occasional washout, rocky mountain trails, mud, sand, rock crawling....

Are you wanting to use it for any other kind of utility?

What kind of creature comforts do you want when you are on the trail?

Are you going to use the rig as a daily driver as well?

Are you going to use it at highway speeds much?


I chose an older Jeep CJ7 (wrangler), It gets most of its off roading on rocky mountain trails, but also sees back country dirt roads, and rock crawling.

It has practically no creature comforts.


Edit: A lot of the competition rigs around here use propane because it will keep running even when upside down.
