A unimog video came up in my recommended last night. I must have watched a top gear episode about them years ago for the name to be familiar.

Such a cool vehicle. Those ridiculous American trucks wish they were unimogs

The older ones often aren't that expensive to buy, expensive to run, but I reckon I've seen them for $20k which pales in comparison to a jumbo ute.

Real ones buy a 70 year old unimog and maintain it themselves. Only posers buy a modern truck from the dealer
