I'd look at H3 if I wanted a new 4x4. I happen to like IFS in certain situations, and people who are dead-set against it are living in the past. It's a much more refined vehicle than the current Rubicon, but you can still get a stick, lockers, and 4:1 transfer case.
If you're looking for something in that range you might also look at the FJ Cruiser. Despite Toyota of North America's best effort they've managed to turn out a pretty darn good rig.
The minute I found a lifted IFS toyota on 33's couldn't do what I could in my stock Jeep on 31's ONLY because of lack of articulation, I knew I would never drive an IFS vehicle on a trail like the ones we have. I like the H3, but I'll stick with the Jeep. It just seems to me sometimes that you're the hater, always doing your best to put down Jeeps for some odd reason or another. There's a reason Wranglers are still around and the FJ40 isn't, until only recently. Why is that? I don't really know, I really don't care, but you seem to an awful lot.
