Congrats. Look forward to seeing pictures of it on the trail.

This looks good.

We are going to get the decal updates posted to the store soon.

Great trip report. This looks like fun! Maxtrax have saved my bacon a few times too.

Someone will get an amazing trailer. Best of luck with the next machine.

Great call. Based on my experience, I would go Triumph 800 or BMW 1200 GS. Both are excellent machines, with the BMW being a better long-distance cruiser and the Triumph better on the dirt.

Nice. Never a fan of the fuel cans mounted to the side, but the rest looks good.

Yeah, I am 6'1" ;) I have some great images of that truck somewhere. I will look them up.

Come right in, the water's fine. . . Land Rovers are not Toyotas (thank goodness)

It is a nice truck. The thing I remember most was not being able to stand up in the back. Talk about a stiff neck.

I usually go with a 30mm bar riser and rotate the bars up a touch. I am 6'1", and this works for most bikes. On my Husky, I needed to raise and rotate the bars, plus lower the pegs 10mm and move them 10mm rearward too. Funky ergos on that bike.

LOL, I am certain my wife feels the same way. . .

Two turbos- perfect. Thanks for the correction, I was not aware that Merc abandoned the G320 = G with 3.2L convention.

It is fine to sell items like this on the forum without being a vendor. You must be a vendor/sponsor if you are selling new or used items for a profit.

It is tough. . . I just ran the wires under the front windshield cowling and behind the door bulb seal. Only place I could find without risky drilling.

I am currently running the 245/75 BFG AT KO. It has been a great size and flawless tire. However, I am a Land Rover owner, so I must fit something less functional and practical. Queue the 7.5 XZL! ;)

1995 463 3.2L Originally a Europa import, purchased new from a friend of mine. The truck was already well traveled before I took ownership, driving all the way to Saint John's in Newfoundland. I have owned it since 2009, and used it for everything from daily driving duties to MARSOC training. ...

Post details and images of your beloved Teutonic machine. Here is a little inspiration. . . Gunther's 500,000 mile round-the-world G-Klasse...

David, I am far from a G expert, but certainly have my opinion :) I would find a Europa 463 with a diesel or the 3.2L. All the comfort and refinement you need, but none of the electronic issues. I would certainly buy a newer G-Wagen, but only with a 6.3L, because the only thing that can make a...

For what you want to do, find a 463 with the 3.2L straight six (or any diesel model 463). A 1996-1998 model is ideal. That motor was ubiquitous in Mercedes sedans imported to the US and exceptionally reliable. Just know that you are buying something closer in DNA to a tank than a car. It will be...
