Well having driven, wrecked, rolled, and 4 wheeled with both,
Jeeps can be pretty slick. The pickup guy is clearly pounded in by the "plow" wall trying to get out. The Jeep is crusing through soft powder. :O Jeeps have much better balance and weight distribution and the pickups unless loaded, don't have any weight in the rear. I'm going hunting for old pics now. Stay tuned..........

Exactly what I was too lazy to type haha. My little brother had his first vehicle as a Scout. He worked on it when he was 14 until he was 16. Ended up selling it though.eXg.

You can kind of see the iH tattoo on his right arm.

Ahhh. I think one of my WORST ideas, was to get my F-250, then stack 2 lift kits on it, with 38" Super Swampers. Even with the 3/4 of the truck, low range, would tear apart u joints, and twist drive shafts. Upgraded to 1 ton joints and shafts, problem solved. Bad thing was, it was soo big, that when it finally DID get stuck, no one could get in, to pull it out. :O
Enter, IH Scout II. Cast iron battleship. 1 4" lift, with spring over axle mods, air locker up front, and locker in the rear. The thing would climb a tree, but better yet, you could bounce OFF a tree, and just keep rolling.
I guess the only thing bad about the Scout II's besides being very heavy, was they were small like a old Ford Bronco. Took 4 guys to remove the rear, steel top, but then you were crusing. 345/4 barrel, TourqeFight 727 trans. Very nice. Too bad it got the name "The Lead Sled" hehe.
