The Iveco Daily is hands down one of my favorite overland vehicles, and for good reason. It finds a sweet spot between a 4WD van and a much larger expedition platform. Subsequently, it provides generous interior living space (akin to a Sprinter AWD or Total Composites box) while still being relatively affordable to run and…

2006 Lexus GX470 :: Classifieds
