I own a montero and have driven many jeeps. Personally I feel that they are almost the same and most of the time it comes' down to the driver ability and taking the right line. When it comes to road manners and MPG the Monty takes it.


Personally I don't wheel my montero anymore.....because I got 2 404 unimogs. I would love to compare them to a jeep but it would not be fair to the jeep. The best 4x4 ever made is the unimog hands down. The keyword in that statement is ô4x4ö, meaning that it will rarely ever go on the road. Once one of the older unimogs hits the road it sucks but the new ones are way better. The reasons you canÆt compare a unimog to a jeep is because the unimog is more like a tractor than a jeep, lower gears, tougher axles, bigger tires, and over all bigger. Yes jeeps can fit down more trails but unimogs make trails. The one thing I have seen first hand is jeepers and other rigs not willing to follow a unimog while it makes a new trail. Also the price of that concept will probably be close to the cost of a unimog. Last thing is that jeeps are fun for 2 to 3 people and can hold about 2 to 3 days worth of supplies. Unimogs are for 8 to 12 people and 6 to 9 days.


Stock to stock= unimog, itÆs about the only high priced rig that will actually get you there.
