What type of vehicle is best suited to the trip?

  1. Any 4×4 vehicle with high and low range gear functions.
  2. Modern so-called “soft roaders” may struggle.
  3. New vehicles with too many technical gadgets may also be problematic. In this instance simpler is better mostly because sand has the tendency to get into nooks and crannies and potentially jam sensitive mechanisms.
  4. Vehicles with a high clearance are highly recommended.
