A Week Or So Ago,

we posted a piece about a rugged Russian SUV,

a 60 year old GAZ M72, which we featured here, well not to be outdone, outdoor enthusiast outfitter Filson and rugged Jeep Wrangler accessories manufacturer AEV get together, the collaboration resulted in the AEV Filson Wrangler,

a power house for the outdoor types with a choice of optional 5.7L or 6.4L HEMI V8 engines, it rides on a 3.5-inch DualSport SC suspension and packs a 9,500lbs. WARN winch, not so much to pull it out of trouble but more likely to assist other less-fortunate off-roaders, 

available in a choice of 2-door or 4-door versions, included is a set of IPF 901 off-road lights, an IPF back-up light, and AEV 17” Savegre wheels shod with matte black BFGoodrich 35” Mud-Terrain KM2 tires, Filson has done up the Wrangler's cabin with Exclusive Filson Rugged Twill and leather, as an added bonus, owners enjoy a Filson Rugged Twill bulkhead storage bag and a Filson Original Briefcase Filson and Medium Duffle, a price of $70,400 has been mentioned but no news if it is available in right hand drive or pink, this has got to be the ultimate Chelsea tractor!
