I'm not sure where to put this. I was watching vids online and found this. I can't understand a word of it, but it's a rubicon constantly out performing a land rover defender in some of the nastiest mud ever.

I've owned both. It comes down to skill and traction. Nothing more, nothing less. I've been out with guys we those fancy $100k rigs, gobs of wheel travel, huge tires, lockers, etc., and watch them get stuck. I've seen stockers make it where modded rigs didn't. It's talent, picking a good line and traction.
Being I've owned both, I like both for different reasons. With that said, the LR has gone road soft in recent desingns. The defender is the best unit they sell. At least they held true to their roots and kept that thing going and kept it utilitarian. I hear now they are canceling it, due to regulations. Both vehicles are very capable.
For the record, I am looking for a solid Volvo C303. Much like a Pinzgauer.

Ok so its Russian (my fiances Russian) and it started by saying hole was deeper than they thought then he pulled him out and said one more try but little faster. Then got stuck and said its way to soft under and he sank. Then next time he got stuck he said this is no good cause his rover is going to get scratched by bushes then I stopped watching cause that was annoying.

I really like the defender as well. They are pricey but hey. And I totally agree with your statement, I had a little 97 Nissan truck, 2wd no less, and you would have been amazed at the mud and muck I was able to make it though. Knowing your vehicle and being a responsible driver make for a good ride.
