Nostalgia – yeah, but utility is my deal. I drive some back roads, so that no matter what it will be dirty by the time I get to the highway. For getting back in the woods in a camper, nothing beats a Westy. In fact most of what I see being actually used are VW Baja’s and Buses - 3/1 over regular 4wd’s. Maybe that’s just out west, but most of the new stuff stays right on the pavement. Nothing beats a Bug with a kingpin front axle for durability, and Merc’s are quiet and built like trucks for my purposes. I like to play though – I’m looking for a beat up 67’ 911S to turn into a wild Baja – if the PCA guys wouldn’t shoot me.
