The Defenders were kicked out of the US when whoever built Land Rovers at the time wouldn't put airbags in them. I have always hoped that Ford would re introduce them back here. But now that GM has taken that lead with the H-3, I don't need a Defender. An off road vehicle whose looks depicts it's off road ability.
Note that I am talking about the two door Land Rovers.
