1972 Ford F-250, Colorado Springs

From the AL files. A lot of 1960s-70s  F-250's were sold to people who were putting campers on them, especially out West.

From the AL files. Colorado Springs. Not sure about the configuration, might have been a fire dept.  truck?

INEOS Grenadier and Banff Grizzly & Elk

 
These are, mostly, built in France. Near the German border. Obviously inspired by the Land Rover Defender.  BMW engine. First one we have seen. It probably can go anywhere, but why would you go rock-climbing and stream-splashing in such a shiny and expensive, not to say violently disruptive, chunk of hardware? You can read more on this mad machine in Motor TrendLeave the backcountry to the bears, we say. 

The winch is a $4k option.

Take your pick.
