Another vote to consider 6-cylinder/5-speed only. Even with that combo it will struggle to do highway speeds and your MPG will be terrible. If you have oversized tires, forget about it. A 350 swap fixes all, and are relatively common. They are very cool in a singular purpose, rugged sort of way. It's a vehicle I've always wanted but haven't managed to justify yet.

And yes, McGuyver was awesome.
