I will be going to the Colorado All 4 Fun Run this August.
To each his own, I like the longer wheelbase and the enclosure, works for me and I do not drive it on the street. I am seriously considering upgrading to a buggy when the XJ wears out.
Getting a new Jeep is cool but allot of people are to worried about body damage with a new one, I also know some who are not.
I still think the wheeling is 40% vehicle 60% driver. The frame/body will last longer than the unibody off road.
