I can honestly say the only thing I like about it is the front bumper with the turn signals and foglamps integraed into one.

The rest... well... hideous !!!

Come on really, a Chinese knock-off of a Jeep!! Think about it, probably put together with super glue. The drivetrain is probably a joke. Think D30A x1000 worse!! Doubt it will last 15K miles without blowing a head gasket or a diff!!! If you want a Jeep pickup get a Comanche! Rock solid engine and drivetrain that will last forever!

Only 4 foot? dude that won't do anything! I'm getting a 5 foot stinger with the ability to attach a snatch block to the front of it. I can use it for winching people out of places or safely repel down a mountain side, what will yours do?
