Jimny's can be ok on long trips if everything is done well. Vit or GV are definitely better power to weight from stock, and probably more comfortable.

Thanks guys, Im selling the patrol as its getting pretty on a bit and a bit of a slug but a great 4wd, I'm planning to do less 4wing and don't really need a dedicated 4wd anymore, not having a tray is going to be a pain but ill get over it. I'm looking for an every day car that I can have some fun with every so often.
