I would second a samurai for a fuel efficient off roader. The ones I have owned have been unstoppable. I have pulled a couple full size rigs out of ditches, and yanked one out of snow up to his axles he broke through a crusty layer and I just floated atop it(He hung his head and asked me not to tell anyone...hehe)

An x 90 is the same drive train and chassy as a Suzuki sidekick/geo tracker. It is very stout for it's size. Though a swb tracker has a great deal more room inside than an x 90 I have seen x90s with a bunch of lift, lockers, 31's and bull bars with winches. Actually looked kinda neat.
