4 x 4 yeah but which one and why ?

[NorthernRaider]

For off road capability Landies rule, but they are near or at the bottom of the annual motor trade survey for vehicle reliability, as the wise often say " if your landy is not broken down its about to" It Appears to most folks from Farmers, to Top gear to Somali terrorists that vehicles like the Toyota Hilux is the most bullet proof reliable followed by the Mitsubishi Warrior family.

My own preference is functionality and reliability over anything else so for me

Budget buy Dacia Duster 4x4
Compact buy Suzuki Jimney 4x4
Work hog buy Toyota Hilux type / Mitsubishi warrior type
Mainstream conformist but Ford Ranger / F150
Fat lazy bastard buy Toyota Land Cruiser Amazon
Serious EDC offroader buy Land Rover but with one as a spare
Loaded buy Pinzgaur or Bremach
