Running them is very cheap here due to the incredibly cheap petrol
The roads are pretty terrible and you will do small bits of "off road" driving all the time just to get around
Most importantly you won't believe the driving until you experience it. It is simply safer to drive a big car. Most of the locals are complete lunatics behind the wheel and they all drive big land cruisers. When they hit you you really want to have a decent amount of metal around you.
