It's definitely going to be a diesel since everywhere else uses more diesels. They are stronger (thicker blocks generally), can run on alternative fuels, and last for a long time. Among the many things to consider would be great fuel filtration for those times you get some bad stuff. The expedition forum or an expedition site might offer better insight on preparation for this kind of trip like supplies, parts, navigation, desired drivetrain, etc.
