Tampa Bay is completely saturated, and my 1985 C4 Beater is not ok with standing water. Mr duPont said my choices are a 73 FJ40, 85 Defender 110, 2001 Lexus LX470 or 2007 Tundra...

What would you choose?

The Lexus that’s really a Landcruiser.

FJ40.

Slap on a snorkel and be awesome.

XJ with a 4.7 stroker kit, a snorkel, Pro comp 3 inch lift, mud terrains, a snorkel, lockers, and a turbo. You’ll be unstoppable.

Agreed, the shiftable transfer case adds flair, and we have it on 33" Terra Grapplers

2WD and open rear diff aren’t going to be fun

I am a fan of 3/4 of your choices. You really can’t go wrong except the 2wd on the Tundra. The LX470 would be the most comfortable since it’s hot but the FJ40 is obviously the most fun with the best water fording ability(We have gone up to 2' I believe in our ‘75

Snorkel so important it had to be said twice.

This question can be answered in either Portuguese or ‘Murican.

Tundra. Way too many streets that flood around these parts to risk anything else. With that being said, it’ll be fun driving around Thursday in The Ranger. All the standing water will give the undercarriage a nice cleaning. Pretty sure there’s still a bunch of mud and grass packed up under the rear from the ditch incident a few weeks ago.
