Samurai.
I have owned probably six or so. Wheeled them all over the state. I love em. I would make those yamaha rhino's look dumb in the woods and i could still do 65mph down the freeway.
OR, a lightly lifted tracker. I had one with all Old man emu suspension. It rode like a caddi, and was BAD ASS on the trails. Cheap too.
Samurai's are great. I have popped tcases, trannys, engines. ALL SORTS OF SHIT during my carrer with them. If you ever need info or have a suzuki question, I can try and help.
Oh and the AX-15 is ok.
An AX5...Is a Peugeot BOMB.. POS.
