    It was a VA truck and was for sale for a LONG time.

    I guess that it found a new home in Nantucket.

        You can read all the ridicule about it on the "Land Rovers that Suck" thread on D-90.com

            Looks like i will have a new rover pal on island. Im going to chase it down next time i see it. I really want to see the drivetrain set up. i have a bunch of left over Tan 686 from from painting my 109, maybe i can convince him to change the color!

              Somewhat unusual, but not the first by a long shot.
              The first I was aware of was the Sandtrekker: http://sandtrekker.com/ Plus is was actually used for a long trip.
              The one in the video seems to have the rear axles too close together, IMO.

              Four wheel drive allows you to get stuck
              in places even more inaccessible.
