suspension dynamics is a funny thing - sometimes you may get away with very weird shit.
I just walked to work from lunch, and heard a familiar tire squeal when a Wrangler pulled into a parking spot with a tight turn - Rovers rarely do it. Now I know the reason - jeeps have the tie rod in front of the axle; that, in conjunction with tight space inside a 15" rim, doesn't allow the tie rod end tucked in past the "kingpin" line. Essentially, that makes most, if not all, jeeps toe-out less than necessary in turns.
Now, aussie 4x4 of the year doesn't quite relate to everyday driving in the U.S. You don't quite care about ackerman angle if you're into 1900km-long dirt road (not much even it was highway). Reverse ackerman WILL result in oversteer - which may be an asset off-road with big tires and no power steering.
