The "Rock" had one of these in a recent movie "Faster"!
An International Harvester Scout II that I built from scratch out of spare parts lying about my garage:




I take it cool places like Death Valley, Canyonlands, etc. Fuel injected 392 cid, 10:1 V8. Measured 417 HP & 441 ft-lb on a chassis dyno at 8,000 ft elevation in Evergreen, CO.

Well I spend a lot of time snowboarding in the winter and skating in the summer. I am an instructor at the local resort here. It is a terrible resort and I don't make any money (probably break even) but it is fun and there are some perks like free tickets to other resorts.
I also like to mess around with technology. I am currently working on a website. When I make some good progress on it, I will post the link. I'm also looking into Android development. My day job is actually a network engineer for an ISP/telco company.
