Overlanding in North America - Toyota Hilux Surf or Jeep Cherokee?

Also, I have yet to acquire a roof tent for the 80. I'm sure I'll be down in the 10-11mpg range on trips at that point.

Yes, I notice a trailer barely affects my gas mileage but anything on the roof is like a massive air brake. I drive about 10K miles a year with ladders on the roof. Lucky to get 14mpg on the highway with them.
