I showed up with a 1996 Land Rover Discovery to Junkyard Digs first annual Cheap Truck Challenge. I didn’t know what I was getting into but I headed blindly into the woods at MIOBI with a Suzuki Samurai, Ford Bronco, Chevrolet S10, and a Ford Ranger. What what happened when things went from testing our vehicles capabilities to mayhem.

The guys over at Junkyard Digs invited me to a cheap off roader build off where we had just $1000 to buy a vehicle and $1000 to spend on parts for it. Within reason we could also borrow things we had lying around as well as sell parts off our vehicle to help the build.
