    Same comment as on the Defender video - get a GX460!! Full time 4WD, so very good on snow - especially with 3peak rated tires. Old school hydraulic power steering with real road feel - highly reliable!!

      Yea... GX or LX, obviously GX for durability its still a ? for the LX. Id still consider it tho. They had one at my dealer. I love the size. To me that's PERFECT. Im talking LX... the GX is nice too i wouldn't turn that down either. Id overland the hell out of either with some bad ass Dissent bumpers and all the fun goodies. Yes yes...

    Wrangler and Defender are at the bottom for reliability. Not saying they’re all bad! But, issues should be expected with both.

    It’s not that your vehicles unreliable, take it to the dealer have them run a check, make sure you’re warming up your vehicle in the mornings it’s probably a sensor maybe not enough warm-up time just take it in there’s nothing wrong with your vehicle it’s the best 4 x 4 on the market.

    I have a 22 wrangler Willy’s and I would get messages popping up all the time and my speakers (Alpine system) with Bluetooth would sound staticky. Finally after the 3rd visit this was about 2 weeks ago they said a service bulletin came out to fix the issue and I haven’t had an issue since. They had to update the software. My car was saying “service fuel system performance limited” “service auto stop start system auto stop start disabled”

      That might be true when considering reliability. But if you want performance you just aren't going to find that in a 4runner. It seems you have to pick one or the other.

    The Jeep power steering issue has possibly NOT been rumored to be caused by high speed driving (80+ m.p.h.) It is a possible safety feature designed into the vehicle to prevent driving at unnecessary high speeds possibly endangering the occupants of the vehicle.
    OR
    It may be the flux capacitor being defective and it is interfering with the blinker fluid negatively interfering with the spare tire pressure not being in sync with the gravitational pull of the lunar eclipse.

Get CVTs whenever possible, and the lowest displacement and/or highest specific output models you can. That's all a sure recipe for just slightly better reliability over time, and should promise plenty of opportunity for more "I can't believe it broke AGAIN" content. 😄
