Greetings, what in your opinions are the domestic vehicles of choice to undertake long-term overland travels? By this I mean 3 months or more in outback Latin America, Asia and Africa where spares and support cannot be guaranteed, conditions can be tough and so reliability and durability are important factors.
I'm talking about Fords, GM, Dodge, Jeep etc. I am particularly interested to know if there is a specific pre-electronic models (presumably older, pre-2000?) on which it all came together. I've tried scouring various forums but am not very much the wiser.
Over here for example the selection is no less small but the choice is almost exclusively Land Rover Defender (in particular Tdi300s) and just about any diesel Tojo LC. I wonder if the optimal range is as narrow in North America?
thanks for your input.
