But then again, many of its capabilties aren't for everyone either. Like climbing a 22 inch vertical wall, navigating a 60% grade, traversing a 40% side slope, or fording through 30 inches of water.
But it you were to drive one, you'd soon realize that its 6.5L V8 turbo diesel engine, highly advanced 4WD, traction control and suspension systems, and hardened aluminum body can take yol places almost no other vehicle can. And we don't just mean geographically.
Sometimes you find yourself in the middle of nowhere. And sometimes in the middle of nowhere you find yourself.
