Any advice and assistance is most appreciated. Thank you.
For your needs, I recommend the Unimog 1250 with the long wheel base. The truck has a spacious platform with room for your crew, dogs and gear. In addition, the truck is very heavy duty and can be fitted with guns and armour to satisfy your international travel paranoia.
