But.... Is there such a thing as a LLR track system?

Had it been legal to drive a side-by-side UTV on the streets and roads here, that yellow one would be quite cool...

The dune buggy is a new favorite.
This is the latest post. An eco-offroader? cRiPpLe_rOoStE should like it.
the Suzuki LJ20 that Matt's Off Road Recovery got out of the mountains (in a youtube video 13 months ago) was restored and at SEMA
Makes my brother's Suziki Samurai look like a monster truck.

Interesting that you draw a parallel between Putin and Klaatu.
I know the motors are bigger than needed because "Murica, but you see good fit and finish.
