Question Iveco 4x4 available to use/rent from Sept in USA/Mexico

Due to visa restrictions we need to leave USA by about the 9th or 10th September. We will be away for a minimum of 4 months and possibly up to 7 or 8.
I have a british registered iveco 35-10 4x4 diesel which is kitted for long range, self contained travel. (we came across mongolia to get here).

This is a working truck, not 'RV' and has no luxuries from home ! however, it is capable of sustaining 2 people, on board 240v system, cold water (100 litres) feeds small kitchen sink and cooking (2 rings + grill) is by propane gas (on board tank). I liken it to camping on wheels without the hassle of a tent !

2.5td engine with spare capacity fuel tank enabling a range of approximately 1400kms, I get an average of 7.5 to 8 kms per litre. The engine is simple, reliable, sluggish but very dependable to get you anywhere.
All the normal supplies you'd expect on board for an offroad vehicle.

We love the truck and have no intention of selling.

However, it occured to me that perhaps somebody wants few months either touring USA or Mexico, so we could either work some form of a trade for few months or some form of rental.

Whomever was to use my truck would I hope have some experience of this style of travel, be able to solve issues (should they arrive), happy that any on the road usage, wear n tear, or damage would I expect be fully repaired by you.

If anybody is interested then drop me a line. Could be very cost effective way to travel around Mexico for the winter.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
