Welcome to my world! My day job is in the off-road industry. In fact that GMC looks to have a set of our company's fender flares on it. :D

My Cars:
Low Life: Yaris. (lowered on S-Techs)
High Life: Sidekick. (Lifted on BDS)
Mid Life: WRX (Stock)

:D

Funny, at our Jeep Nation meetings there was an LJ (TJ Unlimited) parked next to a black hatchback Yaris; so I took a pic as I own both of these vehicles (although neither in this pic are mine!)...

LOL - I was thinking of rolling to a 4Runner meet the other day. There are a couple of lifted ones, but the majority of them were stock, so not as funny.

I had a Jeep, a YJ-7 (YJ Wrangler with a CJ front clip) for years. I sold it a few months after I bought my 2009 Yaris.

Nothing wrong with either; and my YJ was literally an economy 4x4, with the AMC four. I got about 24 mpg with it, very good for a Jeep.

It needed work and I was unfortunately subject to lots of transfers. Lugging it around was a chore and fixing it myself out of the question. I sold it, for more than I paid for it in California.

FWIW...I don't know what that Jeeper is doing with his trailer hitch there...but having tried towing with a YJ...DO NOT. The short wheelbase makes turns, ALL turns, unstable, as the flex on the tire sidewalls causes turning angles to shift. Creates an oversteer condition...you wind up in a much -tighter turn than you aimed for, correcting causes it to overcorrect...it's how short-wheelbase Jeeps and trucks wind up upside down when they're towing.
