Gimme an old Toyota Land Cruiser or FJ40. Both look like a lot of fun IMO.

What about the Direct Injection Isuzu Rodeo or Axiom ? It will outrun any(5.9 ZJ and 4.7 WJ included) Cherokee and get considerably better gas mileage.... The Axiom looks sharp, don't know much about it besides parents had one when I was growing up and it revved high and sounded good. It can get 300 hp with full bolt ons and tune.... That's the same as a 5.0 stroker ! Same story with 260 hp Nissan Pathfinder late 90s.

For me its simple, my first choice is what I'm driving right now as my dd, a 2009 HEMI Commander, its the perfect Jeep(if it only had a SFA) but they drive nice and wheel good right out of the showroom. Add a little lift and it will go very well off-road.

My second choice for pure coolness but not necessarily very comfortable to drive would be my MJ

I would either get a landrover discovery probably mid 90's or go back to wheeling a 87-91 isuzu trooper
