This Mercedes-Benz Unimog will take you to any place you want

When you think about the car for heavy off-road, you probably don't think about the Unimog. We don't understand why this truck will not in your list of great 4x4s. You can drive literally everywhere using this cool 4x4 truck.

The first Unimogs were made for agriculture purpuses to be an alternative to tractors. The huge ground clearance, courtesy of its portal axles, combined with a selectable all-wheel drive and a frame that flexes as part of the suspension, made sure that the Unimog will almost take you and your gear anywhere, and that’s what made the Unimog so popular with farmers and armies around the globe.

This example was bought by Dirt Every Day with the goal to drive it from Indiana to Memphis, Tennessee. With the Unimog being able to cruise up to speeds of 50mph, it’s not the ideal road-trip vehicle, but the fun starts when the tarmac stops and that’s what this beast is all about.
