The 244x looks like an old Land Crusier. I like.

Never heard of the company though. Looks interesting.

It might be an inexpensive beater--perfect for paintballing, camping, 4 wheeling, or running over your mother-in-law!

Hmm, Well ARO has been making that SUV's trucks since about 1966. Fancy that, that's Land Rover Series II era.

Of course it's evolved, and still looks a lot like a modern Land Rover Defender, and it's like it's using the Ford Cologne V6.

This is just a guy, that's trying to import a cheap car into the US.

However... it does look cool, and for the right price, I might look seriously at one. It looks like the price might start around $20k, which would make it very atractive, indeed.

Let's wait until they are actually on these fine shores first...

Its been talked about for ~3 years now, and they still arent here yet. Dont hold your breath waiting for one. Maybee one day the company will stop saying they are going to build them, and actually do it.

As far as I know, they had places committed to being dealers... Look at the Dealer for NJ, it's a two garage bay mechanic, who has some used cars on his lot.
