Living in Cape Town, South Africa, we have access to many mountain trails where the terrain is rocky, loose shale or plain gravel. There are stunningly beautiful views from these mountain tops, some of which carry snow in winter. We also have many sand dunes for playing! I really like to tour the bushveld and semi-arid areas of Botswana and Namibia on Overlander type trips for game viewing with the family.
The Toyota Land Cruiser with the right suspension, the right tires and all that power must be as close as one can get to the ultimate offroad vehicle for South African conditions. I'm so pleased that I have one.
