Ideally about tye size of a Jeep CJ, no preference on place, don't care about it being fast nor efficient, purpose is to have a trusty vehicle I can rely upon for heavy use as an utilitarian vehicle so driving on dirt, stones, small rivers that don't reach door level so I can pack up and go innawoods for shooting and hunting.
Budget would be 3000, 5000, 10000 USD, I want the best options for each price.

@Leaf me alone

v8 4.0L with 182hp and 233 torque. 14mpg average. under $5k

^Land Rovers have been favorites for overland expeditions for a while

price of replacement parts might be an issue in the US

yeah they have their issues too

electrical issues as I recall

yeah that's right. i couldn't remember what it was but yeah. that's the thing people mention

but in that case you just get the most basic version you can, in the best overall condition

for real. if the price range you're looking for @NotATF is really btween 3 and 10k you can get a """perfect""" condition one of these

also worth looking into a toyota landcruiser, any year I believe

the later ones are heavy and bad on gas, but are built like tanks

just searched land rover for sale with lowest miles and found this

faster than a miata

@NotATF you could be the proud owner of this gun toting machine

i'll have you know it hauls an AR, SKS, and Mosin on a semi-regular basis

shoot out of the tailgate thingy who cares! just buy it!

Be honest now
