Hi Jasper,
I own colorado (prado, kzj95) and hdj80. My last trip with colorado was in Algeria in April and May and we did quite a lot of classical pistes and the car behaved really well.
I did some modification: replaced the original suspension with OME (6 cm lift), wheel spacers (3cm each), additional fuel tank (75 l).
Colorado is lighter and can not carry that much load as hdj80 but it is really pleasure to drive. Parts for colorado are easy to get and they are not that expensive. In my opinion colorado is quite underrated - the old engine 1KZ-TE is really robust and it is not sensitive to the quality of fuel - I have no experience with d4d engine
regards,
Tomaz
