I had to take a pic of this Jeep when I stopped laughing

FUBAR came to mind......

It was parked down the street from my house all day, I just kept laughing at it, the tag axle is a straight axle like a trailer axle, small little brakes.

It looks weird the way they did the rear fenders to match the rake not the bed rail, that rear axle must really screech the tires on a U turn, it did not look like it has a goose neck in the bed like it was done for function, so it must just be for show.

I suppose in some certain conditions it would help off road, maybe sand or something you want to roll over, climbing, or anything else I would think it would be completely useless.

My wife looked them up and they run for over 100K (disclaimer, that could be incorrect, I did not look it up myself)

I almost posted it up as "I want to do this to my Ranger" but it's so fugly I couldn't bring myself to joke about it, that would piss my truck off (I could hear it also laughing when we drove by) ?

I bet there are those who will think it's cool, not me, it's always function over form for me, I consider it only really suitable for a parade or car show.

Here is another one that I ran across a while ago. Also very ridiculous in my opinion.

Neighbor has a Gladiator with a folding top - I like it.

Lariat is scheduled for a moonroof install on the 20th of next month.

If I were to replace Lariat, it would be with a RAM TRX or RAM Limited. Comparing apples to oranges....

Now, that makes me laugh to tears. But why would anyone....

That rear wheelwell looks like such a hackjob. Although I gotta say the Velociraptor is sorta growing on me, not that I could afford it anyways.

That’s a pretty bad ass fail for 120K ?

As silly as it sounds things like this are done out in Australia on the full size trucks/Utes. They refer to them as "Mega Tours". Its a completely custom deal of course and I have always questioned it, but it it suits your needs(and wallet) then power to you.

Personally, I've never cared for the look of the Gladiator. I think I'm finally at a loss for words on this one. ?

better not mention the quad tailgate dampering system!...?

 

[jflogerzi]

so dumb. All 6x6 Jeeps and trucks are stupid...

Hey Rick,

I saw that a week or so back on Apple News and had a good chuckle. It’s hard to believe there’s more than one out there!

Such a big, expensive mod with no real world application - reminded me of what some of my neighbours were doing to their golf carts in AZ. ??‍

well it does have a 6ft (8ft?) bed!

it may have a longer bed. but too bad all the fake add ons basically used up half of its load and tow capacity lol.

if some hipster in a honda or kia soul passed by on the sand while he was digging in it would have made my night lol.

A Rodeo Drive mall crawler. Surprised there wasn't poodles hanging out the window.

More likely the additional suspension, tires, road contact, and increased wheel base would add ~30% to load and towing capabilities. It would greatly depend on how it was built, but the potential is there to increase load and towing significantly.
