For that money I would buy a cabin on a couple 100 acres and a few quads
and a Kick A$$$$$$ Unimog with a back hoe to play in the dirt.

There was a nice Unimog Expedition for $20K for sale here in Squamish BC a while ago

Big big off road vehicles are none too capable in the real world. Just look at what they use in the under developed parts of the world. Mostly smaller units , a Mog is close to the ultimate when going into the bush in my opinion. Cheers Dan

MB is starting to sell the Zetros to the general public and not just the military.

Not bad looking ride.



Although, for that kind of money, I'd buy real estate and have my jollies with lighter weight machines. The Unimogs are great for sure.

Like the look of the Zetros, reminds me a bit of the Russian Ural trucks I like...
