My 1981 vw rabbit pickup with an old tdi swap has crossed the country over a dozen times. I commuted every business day last year without a single hiccup. I am a mechanic. But my motor has 300,000+ miles when I got it in 2011…. Before any of those trips. Camped out of it for a full year. Later used it to live in the woods for another 2 years. I’m a mechanic again but still drive the same car. You can too. If u work the system a bit, like I have, Mine is supposed to be registered forever…/altho technically only until the year 2050. That means a 40yo car will be my main transportation for… Another 40 years.

@@joesprague1464 very true that elaborate overlanders or even jeeps and 4x4 trucks are not needed for exploring and enjoying the backcountry. When I took time off between jobs and went cross-country in a 1969 VW camper I went on almost any road my heart desired and never got stuck. Great traction with that engine behind the rear axle and usable torque combined with high ground clearance and I was golden.

Drove it for many miles, including going cross-country twice. The iron block and head engine was unbreakable. Got a better car and sold it to a friend and he eventually sold it to another friend, who gave up on it when fifth gear eventually gave out at around 250k. Bought it back from him as he needed the cash and then sold it very cheap to the family of a friends wife in Asheville, North Carolina as it still ran fine, including the four-wheel-drive system. Lost track of it after that, but wouldn’t be surprised if it’s still running.

That’s very impressive! Really the only issue was ground clearance. It was very capable otherwise.

I just retired my 1993 Camry, that thing kept me on the road longer than it had any right to. 3 years, 2 batteries, 2 alternators, and a brake job later it put me in a dangerous spot when, ironically the brakes failed me 😆 Toyota makes some impressive machines.

I own a 1998 Toyota Corolla E11 Hatchback 2CE Diesel and this video made me think again about the road trip that I dream to do around Europe from south Spain to Istambul, around 4500km and then another 4500km to come back
