If you want to get on a first 4wd tangent then both FWD (Four Wheel Drive) and livingood had all wheel drive rigs long before American bantam ever thought about it. And no the company was never known as Jeep bantam either.
If you want to have a discussion concerning jeeps and/or Toyota's at least know something before you start trying to argue please. Its bad enough trying to wade through the bull crap let alone trying to teach a brainwashed opponent.
