It depends on where and what type of terrain you wheel in.  My 90 inch FJ40 works great in the tight mountain trails but sucks on tall ledges or real steep slickrock.  On the other hand my 105" 4 runner works great where my FJ is too short but won't turn well enough for the tight mountain trails.  My next rig will be about 100" to see if I can hit a nice compromise.
