These are my top 5 vehicles I love most.  I have been lucky enough to own several Jeeps and God knows I am dying to get another one.

#5 Ford Bronco: Growing up in Michigan I knew many people that owned one.  This was just an awesome Truck and if you took the back top off you had an amazing summer vehicle.  I think Ford stopped making the Bronco because of the whole OJ running from the cops incident.  Thank you Juice for ruining this great iconic vehicle.

#4 Ford Bronco II: This was not necessarily the safest vehicle on the road; it tipped very easily.  However, it looked great and this is what is important!  I also knew a few people that owned a Bronco II and they were fun to drive.

#3 Toyota FJ Cruiser: When I see one of these on the road I can’t help but stare.  Even in the crazy blue or yellow colors toyota chose it is just a fantastic looking truck.

#2 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited (Rubicon): If I could get another vehicle right now this would be it.  This model and color (Rescue Green) with the soft top down.  I have always loved Jeeps and probably always will. 

#1 Land Rover Defender One of my biggest regrets in life was never buying the Defender.  When it was available in the U.S.A. you could pick up a loaded one for around $32k but now a moderately abused one would cost around $60k and lets not forget it is a British vehicle sans warranty!  I call the Defender my “Lottery winning purchase.”  Of course if I win the lottery I can only imagine my purchases!  I love the looks and any vehicle the French Foreign Legion uses in combat gets my vote as #1.
