for exploring the outdoors especially in the desert and mountains around Southern California on the weekends.
My budget is $15,000 to work with.
Must be dependable and easy on the gas.
Drive-through sand.
Drive-through River.
Climb mountain trails.
Don't need a lot of electronic gadgets.
Don't need a lot electronics that could cause the vehicle not to work.
I'm not looking for a hard-core rock crawling truck.

thank you for your help.
