Mate, get one of these Diesel (CRD) 3L V6 Mercedes Benz engine, 160Kw of power, an impressive 510Nm of torque and Quadtrack 2 transmission.
At 10.8L/100km its not the most economical, BUT it will go anywhere, mine has been up the OTL, it has arguably the best 4WD system in the business.
One of the motoring magazines had an article entitled "there's nothing wrong with a stock standard GC" that pitted a Laredo against the opposition which resulted in some very surprised Toyota and Nissan owners!
As a tow vehicle it is brilliant, many correspondents to this forum like me have purchased them exactly for that and have smiles on their dials all day!
I have also owned a KJ and as a shorter wheelbased vehicle it was an excellet unit as well with its 2.8L 4Cylinder CRD - and you get a very smart interior in Limited guise!
