[QUOTE="madtuna, post: 382154, member: 44"] Hi Etienne, While it's not impossible it's a big ask. What you need to buy if heading into the outback is reliability as it's your life on the line if you are heading remote. Auctions are possible, ex-mines utes but usually full of rust but often mechanically okay. Unless heading into sandy areas or real rocky crap, often 4x4 is not needed but ground clearance is. As for mud, even the best 4x4's get bogged. The thing with mud out here is just don't drive in it. If it rains you stay put until it dries. Diesel is prefered over petrol, some places don't even have petrol but all have diesel. I've always found vehicles cheaper in the east than over the west for some reason. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
