The difference between having the hi/lo gearing and not is the key difference to me.
My '12 non-HD, with 265/65/18 (fully inflated spare underneath btw) does everything I need short of the Rubicon, wheel-in-the-air scenario. I go off-road regularly with a reasonably heavy dirt bike on the back and feel most of the world is accessible.
I had a '16 non-HD V6 LR4 for a brief period of time as well... was surprised how quickly I wanted to be rid of that vehicle.
