Actually a "rally car" like an Imprezza might be the best choice. Small functional car that'll do just peachy on broken, dirt, gravel roads.. . . mmm.

95 and newer. A Bravada would be good too since its AWD, same years.

It's for my 5' tall, 100 pound Japanese wife who presently drives the Hello Kitty themed Miata. She also enjoys speeding tickets (this might help that at least!) and hitting things. . .
Though the idea of her driving a diesel truck is amusing. Maybe if I paint it pink and put some sunflower hub caps on.
Also, if this project pans out, might get into making some biodiesel for shits and giggles since I have easy access to lots of fry oil for free, and that would drop incremental fuel costs by about 75%. (And my mom has a Cummins diesel truck and at some point would probably get a diesel tractor.)

Vanessa drove my dually just fine on more then a few injured occasions. Plus if bio diesel is your thing the older 7.3l truck are ready to convert, no injector or fuel system changes needed, just a tank heater and you're done.
That layout of truck isnt all that large, i'd say about as big or slightly bigger as your tree sap danger truck.

Can't do anything at the moment as I'm in the middle of financing, but this looks interesting. Given the resources of MG, I'm guessing whatever the issue is would not be too difficult to figure out.
