Top speed of 45 mph. :dunno: It would be a fun toy.

The second video shows it with a tune and they got it to 73 mph and up to about 60 hp.  They also mentioned a street legal kit.

Looks fun, but I'm not sure I would be confident I could get parts for it, especially if they go under, get bought or whatever.  Jeep is suing them.

Watched a few more videos, those things are sweet.  I had a 40's Willys, this looks to carry a bunch of the cool but with an engine and transmission that actually work.

That 2.5 diesel in their ag gear is a worker.  This is fat man 4 wheeler dream here.  I would be tempted to play the Willie's swap.

Pull the guts out and frame it.

In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

Looked at the "Ted Nugent Call of the Wild" model Mahindra at the sportsman show in Portland today. What a cool rig. I asked the dealer about the jeep lawsuit and he said they have settled with jeep.

For a few more bucks you can buy a real Jeep. Why would anyone want to buy this?

Got this from dealer.  "We can send out ECUs and get them re-flashed so you gain 25 hp 40 foot pounds of torque and 30 mph. That costs $500"

Lawsuit doesn't concern me.  Look at all the 'Yeti' coolers out there now.  I don't see them disappearing too quick.   :dunno: :twocents:

I read there was some federal rule about emissions or something that prevents importing as a "vehicle" vs a ATV or off road fun rig. But not sure.

Something to look for.   I just need 2 or 3 ag leases in the Teanaway and Wenas.

Honestly they are really cool but a UTV is better option.  Economy, capability, cost = fun, lighter, more options. comfort.
MAGA!  Again..
