if i'm not mistaken, your car couldn't even get out of the driveway today, let alone do any form of a donut.

like the 4runner?
i can vouch for the xj's being donut kings. my cousin used to have one and i used to take it out and do donuts before i got my drivers liscence. now he has a yj which is almost as good but doesnt kick out as fast. i cant wait to try out the vue cause the rodeo was the worst at donuts. it didnt have enough power to spin all 4 tires in the snow. sometimes it would bog out from losing wind. why did i like that truck so much?

Ummm, doing donuts with a 4 wheel drive vehicle is not exactly a sign that it's a good 4x4, duhh! Anybody with rear wheel drive can do donuts in the snow so it's nothing to be proud of.

i disagree. a good 4wd system should keep constant power to all 4 wheels as much as possible which should equate to good donuts. now if your talking locking differentials then thats a whole other story. but yeah jeep 4wd systems are good but toyota ones are sub-par imo. i had a toyota one in my isuzu and i honestly was no where near impressed.

Umm, that was not a Toyota 4WD system in your Isuzu. Aisin makes different parts for the various imports. And the Aisin Toyota parts will outlast any Jeep parts on a serious trail. If you know anyone doing donuts in a 4WD then their front differential wasn't working. Jeep does have some capable 4WD vehicles but the XJ is not highly rated.

toyota does make a good 4x4 system, I'll give them that. but why would you say the cherokee isnt good? its the same drive line as a wrangler, just different axel lengths.

XJ is the body code for a cherokee. and you didnt kill the Jeep, it probably just got stuck halfway in neutral.

AMERICAN V8's OWN JAP CRAP! :eyeroll:
must be related to skorpion317 , because you're just as stupid
fawking moron.
i own a jeep, but have nothing against yota/ zuki owners, 2 JAP CRAP companies that produce/produced some pretty good 4 wheeling trucks in the past and present.
i'll be looking forward to doing some jeep drifting and donuts in my WJ when i get home to Jackson on the 14th.

I don't understand why there's all this excitement saying if you can do donuts in a 4x4 its not working right. I never said I had it in 4wd.  Actually, the jeep is fantastic in the snow w/o 4wd, I only had to use it once to get out of where I got myself stuck.
If you notice in the pics, only the BACK end of the jeep is snowy... if i was 4x4ing, the whole damn thing would be covered.
