As I have mentioned before, when you see a conspicuously over-wrought, out of place, ready-for-all-comers vehicle here, its owners probably speak German.
In case you missed the license plate (or couldn’t guess), there’s a little flag on the side. Ja wohl!
Wish – I had that one and could make the tours they do !
Marjorie and Jorge were delighted to have our casita for a few days after many nights spent in their (considerably smaller) Land Cruiser — I expect this monster holds a few more creature comforts! Because of the nature of the vehicle, M&J were able to do some cool roads in Argentina and other places that would have challenged a lowly Chevy Meriva (to give an example you might understand in a visceral way). Those few hours, for me, would probably not compensate for being such a conspicuously rich and formidable foreigner along regular roads and in towns and villages. It would be an interesting exercise to consider how one’s travel experience would change without a $150,000 investment (at least!) in vehicle and shipping it around the world.
