Also a diff-lock and an off-road double rate transmission on base model. And it is still lightweight. Beats Land Rover on dirt easily.

Available as factory options in Somalia ...
really looks, like very old Ford Bronco. (Form follows function :)
Nice looking truck.
Yeah, those tires would last about 20,000 miles on US streets.

and for the same $$$$, you could buy two of the less expensive.
If not, you can go to MacMillan’s in Deer Valley, AZ and get it done.
Won’t be cheap, but it will be a blast! (Pun intended)
Perhaps not many of the young urban men; but when you get out into small-town America you’re going to find a lot of us do work on our own cars.
I would love to have something like this when I go hunting/fishing/camping. It will take you into areas most others can’t get to.
Yep, great offroad capability, my point. And a gift to those hunters who spent most of their money on hunting stuff (guns, optics...) and thus don’t have enough left over for that Merc G-Model (boulevard cruiser mostly these days - not that it’s bad as such). Added bonus: That idiotic “environmental classification” is sure to piss off the greenies. Win-win!
I'm quite sure that you do. I know what range of tools and machines are available in American DIY shops - there must be the people who buy this stuff.
Oh, I didn’t understood what you mean initially. I thought you was talking about making Caravan into SUV. Yes, the longer wheel base requires higher ground clearance to negotiate the same obstacles. It is pure geometry. As for adding a 4WD it is an extra $1,500-2,000. They’ve probably didn’t think it would sell well at higher price.
