Thoughts on 2WD vs 4x4
I've been reading some of the posts about shipping from Europe to Egypt. I'm currently in Montenegro with my small camper, a Toyota Lucida Estima (2WD). I see the mountains along the coast of Egypt, the deep red sands in Sudan etc. on Google maps. Must be pretty.
The car has reasonable ground clearance, uneven gravels roads are no problem, but I'd feel bad about abusing the car in deep mud, I don't think it would like soft sand either, it's not made for that.
What do you think? Would you be limited by 2WD? Can't go out into the wild? In most parts of the world 4x4 is rarely an advantage, but I have no experience in this area.
