I'd go with the yota. Reliable and pretty tough. I grew up with the old, old LC and they were just great. As long you do the maintenance they'll run forever. If I didn't own a Nissan Pathfinder I'd probably get a yota tk myself. Roomyness can be an issue though.
Learn how to drive a 4x4 well, get at least some good ATs (all terrains,) good battery and you'll never get stuck out there. Shovel, jack, and recovery eq. are pretty much mandatory in the winter. Even if you don't need it, you may be able to help some poor soul... believe me.
