Farm truck is different. I definitely want a jeep. A crappy old no frills jeep.
A buddy has a 1975 CJ5; for bouncing around his 300 acres in WV it is absolutely perfect-and impossible not to drive with a smile.

, pre-72 CJ5,
Why pre-72?
I know squat about jeeps.
This is about what I'm looking for:

Hood length grew by 4 inches in '72 to fit longer engines. I prefer the shorter design.
This is the config we'd be interested in:
I may we'll be wrong, but it seems that nice examples are getting rare.
I bought myself a few weeks ago a 2006 Toyota 4Runner. I enjoy driving it but it lacks the character of my old D1.
When it's time, I will probably buy another 6-8 year old toyota truck.
Im looking hard at Toyota as well. As much as I love my Disco it's getting and and tired. I'm seriously considering a late 1st Gen Sequoia or Tundra. (2005-2007) I'd love a Land Cruiser, but they are crazy expensive.
Don't let high miles on a Cruiser scare you. I know they still bring big money well into the 250K mile range. I have one with 225K and it's been extremely reliable over the past few years and it spends all its time off-road. Such great vehicles.
What greenspan said about the Lexus. Look there too. You'll be happier with an LC over a Sequoia. I like the 100s series personally.
Thanks for the heads up on the Lexus LX series, I always forget about those. I'm still leaning towards an LR3, but I'm half scared of the EAS.
As a passenger the Lr3/4 is great.
The LR4 is way better than an LR3 and doesn't feel like a Ford inside.
how serviceable are they by the end user?
