well, the problem w/ that is i can't put a hitch on the G35. otherwise i'd just put a small receiver hitch on there and get a hitch rack for my bikes - solving my main concern right there. but, it would have to be a fully custom job...and thus probably visible and not attractive. 
Originally posted by Swazo: I'd point you towards the truck variant of the Cherokee, the Comanche or whatever it's called. Same platform as the "XJ", so parts are dirt cheap for the most part. 4.0 I6 are great, some years have a bad valve cover design to where they will begin to leak, but that can be fixed easily/cheaply. I'm looking around for one personally, and most seem to be owned by older men that babied them.
the MJ = comanche...yep, i'm looking at those too. would actually rather have a 4.0/4wd MJ than a ranger or any of the other trucks listed above, but they are harder to find. i'm definitely keeping those on my list, though....
