gv280z Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) Man....I really don't know what to do with this, pretending that I had the cash for it..It's pretty freaking awesome with the diesel engine and it's also hideously ugly, this thing is so ugly it may even add to its over all appeal. I was looking and wondering if anyone had bought it yet, and my next thought was...$9000 for a 24 year old legendary monster suv but your going to to want to repaint it....hmmmm, it probably hasn't sold yet. I'm sorry to be so disrespectful in the presence of vehicular superiority...but damn...is it just me? http://houston.craigslist.org/cto/4358106953.html I just looked at it again, omg the thing is a beast. The battering ram on the front...LOL! Edited March 27, 2014 by gv280z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferrariowner123 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 My goodness that thing is ugly, i may be alone on this but i really do not see the attraction of patrols... -Kyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precise1 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 It's not ugly, it is just old school 'styling' that kids these days don't understand, kind of like Jeep Wagoneers, Nice that it is a standard shift as well, but I think a little more info or some better pictures might be in order. Regardless, I have no place for it in my fleet. B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djratlif Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 These things are classic, rugged, pure awesomeness in vehicle form. If only I had the money... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkorahil Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 The beast of SUV's! Made back when SUVs were SUVs. It has power and fortitude. Looking at it, has El Salvador plates on it. It looks like it has a TX inspection sticker on the window. What I want to know is how they got it inspected there in TX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5523Pathfinder Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Ugly? You sir need to look at it how to could be... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leo94 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 They look much better in swb but I still prefer a wd21. These are about as common as you guys have jeeps or lifted pickup trucks. Ugly? You sir need to look at it how to could be... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5523Pathfinder Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 To be completely honest, I would take either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precise1 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Agreed, they are rare birds here. Leo, how common are Jeeps or lifted pickup trucks down there? Would you want one? B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdtimesacharm Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Find one with a high roof and you've got a triffic expedition vehicle.. Do you get many 60 series Landcruisers in USA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo94 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 (edited) Plenty of patrols, landcruisers and hilux's down here. Jeeps are sold in dealerships here so they are kinda common but most 4wders hate them. The pickup trucks that you have (and I mean the dedicated haulers not frontiers or tacomas) like ford f series dodge rams etc. those are the ones that are sought after. We have crazy vehicle import taxes here for vehicles built after a certain year (89 i think?) so it gets pretty pricey e.g a 2013 f350 is $130k+ or a 2013 mustang gt500 is $275k. But yes I would like a pickup truck that was made for hauling, jap or american. Agreed, they are rare birds here. Leo, how common are Jeeps or lifted pickup trucks down there? Would you want one?

Leo94 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I actually saw one of those at the wreckers a while ago and im pretty sure it got crushed .

There are some Landcruisers, but I don't think I've ever seen one like that here. Looks like a good vehicle but I think I would favor a 4 door Defender. Way out of my practical price range though...

I had no idea the import taxes were that insane, it more effectively doubles the price of the vehicle (with exchange rate I assume). Still, you have quite a few cool vehicles We'll never see here in the states as well. I guess it is just the case of wanting what you don't have available. I'm pretty happy with my Pathy though.

B Yeah it's something like $40k in importing taxes not including freight itself i think, then there's the rhd conversion and insurance would be through the roof as its imported.I guess you could say the grass is greener on the other side, but yeah I would have agree that i'm happy with my wd21 also.
