Looks like a viable option but I would wait for the kinks to work out and for the aftermarket to grow. And to say the FX4 is just a sticker and nothing else is dishonest. Hopefully it creates incentive for the other manufactures to produce better trucks. Toyota needs to get to the drafting boards.

Places I have been: - The Orkney Islands - Normandy France - The Atlantic Wall museum in Oostende Belgium (If you are interested in WWII history this is the place to go) - Northwestern Montana

I don't know about reliability of the Ram but my dad has had a 3500 Ram that he bought in 2008 it is his daily driver, uses it for his truck camper, and lives in Montana. So far few to no problems. It is a 6 cylinder diesel.

If you are buying new have you checked out the Ram Tradesman with a Power Wagon package

Fresh eggs for breakfast.

Then I better buy a membership

- Scott thank you for the rant as you called it. It is good to hear from some one that has done swaps and considered doing one their self. Do you have a shop or do you just work from home? I work out in Fontana and travel through Ontario on the way to work. I think I will go back to my plan...

- It was Carcaine that gave me the inspiration. I cannot wait for them to release the newest video.

The most important question will a R2.8 conversion pass emissions in California?

- Are there any shops that are doing the Cummins R 2.8 engine swap for a Land Rover Discovery II? - Is it foolishness for me to think that I could buy a $3000 Land Rover Discovery II, swap the engine and transmission, suspension, front and rear bumpers, tires and wheels, and armor and still be...

That is a shame you live by some great little resorts that aren't to expensive.

- I am mainly looking at the Rubicon trim. I want something that already has the offroading bells and whistles. I know I could start with a Sport and build it up but that costs time, money, and facilities. I don't have the facilities, I do have time (but I would rather be exploring), and if I...

- Did you go with the Crew Max

- Your "Buying A Jeep Wrangler: Should I Do It? Was a good read, sometimes people buy a vehicle because it brings them pleasure not practicability. - Did you buy your Jeep from a private seller or dealership? - Did you consider any other vehicles besides a Wrangler? - How about the special...

- Yeah Costner's truck is nice. - How about a Ram Tradesman with the Power Wagon package

- Thanks for the information. "The more you know"!

Do you have any advice on buying a used Jeep, like what websites you used? Do you know of a site that explains all of the different trim levels? I know you are traveling and busy so reply when you can.

Cool to see some one adventuring where I grew up. I grew up in Quincy California and would visit the Great Lake Basin area, one year my friend and I hiked the PCT from Bucks Summit to Wades Lake. Did you go to Bassett's, we would always go there after swimming at Sand Pond. Have you ever been...

I am leaning more towards a Jeep Rubicon. A FJ40 is romantic but if I want it safe for my family, comfortable (climate control), not a project, have the rust taken care of, and have all of the overlanding equipment when you add it up I might as well buy a Jeep Rubicon. Plus I live in...
