What CLASS of 4WD is most off road capable (water crossings / big rocks / steep inclines)?
Water crossings, heavier vehicles don't get pushed around as much and have better clearance; big rocks need full floating axles with four coil springs for comfort and a lift kit will save your sills(a little), power is always welcome on climbs so petrol has the edge, especially in sand, but modern turbo diesels do a good job and can handle a range of fuel conditions, handy if you're in tiger country.
