"""While the Unlimited is limited by it’s lower and longer stance leaving slivers of plastic and metal behind."" you have the photos to prove that ? please place then on this site.

Here the author (myself) put the Rubi only very slightly ahead of the Landie. Overall, the Defender may be the more practical vehicle of the 2. It's roomier (more passengers and cargo) and definitely more fuel efficient. The article is a virtual comparo on how both vehicles may perform in off road conditions ONLY.

First off, win or lose, God bless these two brands for still offering a solid-axle truely utilitarian 4x4. Hail to Jeep for winning by the hair on his chinny chin chin, and same praises to Land Rover for the very close second place. This past few years, I have seen the disappointing disappearance of a true 4x4. 4x4's have slowly become Luxury Vehicles, loosing the rough edge in favor of leather and dvd's. They no longer see the trails, work the farms, as they are more commonly seen on major roads, becoming a businessman's or politicians vehicle of choice. They have even become overly expensive, and the real people who need them find them too expensive to be practical. And yes, they have lost their 4 wheeling ability. So win or lose, THANK GOD for Jeep and Land Rover for maintaining a TRUE, SOLID-AXLE, 4x4! With airconditioning and weatherproofing at the least! Great one Kits! Great Article Kits!
