I agree with you STU, funny thing is in regards to "yank" realistically they are all driving "jap crap", thats where toyota & nissan's home is really, only difference is they assemble a few here, parts still comes from Japan though.

I had this issue of the mag the other day and an article read "look at that flex for a standard vehicle" and iam looking at this patrol and i think my old mazda 626 had more suspension travel then it did, what a joke.

Guys, we are in the minority here. Deal with it. Personally, I prefer that as I dont like owning a vehicle that everyone else in the world owns.

Btw I've met a fair few guys from 4wd Monthly (they did a shoot on my jeep a few years ago). They don't mind jeeps that much at all, just prefer Mitsunissanyotas.

There have been a few threads on there recently where the owners of Mitsunissanyotas have said really good things about the Jeeps capabilities.

I don't read it...unless it's free..just an ad-fest for the arb-laden trailer towing crowd

But IMHO any publication that gives us a common voice to bash it up the likes of scroobs is a good thing...

The poll was actually started by a Forum member with no connection with the magazine, other than being a reader.

Well we're in third spot now with 32 votes, ahead of Land Rover 19 and Bitsaremissin 18. Hopefully we might see some more Jeep articles like Gojeeps now.
