Hi all,
Not sure which forum to post this in, so I'm just jumping in here. Just joined. I'm looking for a vehicle to drive from Michigan to Rio de Janeiro via Tierra del Fuego. I'd like to be able to go into reasonably rugged areas along the way, but I'm not very young anymore so I'm probably not going to go deep into any wilderness. I'd like to put a rooftop tent on the vehicle and create some 'hidden' high security lockers because I'm a photographer and will have a good amount of gear with me.
I've almost settled on a land cruiser, 4wd, manual transmission, and diesel (because I'm concerned about the high amount of alcohol in gas in Brazil). A friend has offered me his 4-runner, but I'm not sure about it because of the fuel issue - not flex.
Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
B
