Also, as I already mentioned, the 70 series is still in production in OZ and IIRC that still comes with a solid front.
Chevy plans to take a stab at the Dakar too. B/c it's in Europe, you'll find some cars not found in most of the world. You can run anything, it just depends on your resources and how deep your pockets are. You won't go too far with a oem vehicle, that's for sure!

Here is a Frontier getting some air!
