Except like all good things, they're banned from import to the United States.
You can still find late 80's early 90's Sidekick/Samurai/Tracker kicking around, but most of them got chopped up into off road toys and run into the ground.

Been looking for a reliable truck that can take the shit getting kicked out of it, preferably with decent fuel economy.
Is there anything in the American market made in the last 5 or so years that is up to the task?

Good luck driving during SHTF in your cool 4WD car and getting stopped on a freshly made road checkpoint by 10 armed monkeys who won't let such beauty go away. Pic related, one of the stolen cars in Donetsk. Imagine how many owners of a "cool" cars got fucked there. The point is, SHTF vehicle should only be reliable and as boring as possible.

Is it one of those stupid reasons like it's too dangerous when they flip or because your congress was salty regarding the 1980s export market?
iirc they're pretty cheap and abundant in Australia. Plus, they make a good painting project, like you could turn it into the Vargmobile in 4 hours tops.

Take a look at the Toyota Tacoma, it's got an almost cult following for its reliability. Also the Ford Ranger is coming back for 2019, so you should be able to find Tacomas for fairly cheap as masses of people trade in their old Tacomas for a new Ranger.

The former is the justification for the latter, yes.

Do you get Fiat Pandas in the US?
The new ones are pricier and possibly less reliable, lots of tech in it engine/transmission-wise, but they still work better that 99% of the "4wd" when it comes to actual outdoor shit and look fairly conspicuous.
