Yeah. When I replaced the Safari, a fantastic vehicle off road and towing, I went for an older proven vehicle too. Replacement bits are plentiful and fairly cheap. They're also more built to be worked on by the owner. My pick if I had to go out tomorrow and buy again would be another Isuzu Bighorn.
