There was a thread here few months back about equipping a Landover for Africa travel. I personally do not own a Landover but in order to support American economy I ended up getting a Jeep Cherokee Sport (I gave my old Cherokee to my Dad) which I'm still working on in terms of skid plates and brush guards and rising the suspension. I also added a second spare inside. I believe that features I'm looking to upgrade in my car are pretty standard in Landover. I will suggest adding brush guards and depending on where you live maybe an outside winch. I'm in NYC so mounting a winch would be like throwing money away since it would get stolen in no time. In my old jeep I modified air intake system. With the new car now I heavily equipped the interior. I mounted a cb radio, under the seat I have an ax, foldable shovel, hand winch and 50 yards of tow rope. I have a water and spare fuel cans plus some emergency rations (which disappear quite often when my girlfriend gets hungry). I have a full med kit with big emphasis on spine and air way care/maintenance. I also have a basic set of tools and back up for my psk. I threw in couple of small sleeping bags that fit right under the seats. Most of my extra equipment is not visible from the outside (except water and fuel cans). Very nice thing that I bought from Cabellas are seat covers for dirty dog and muddy clothes and floor/cargo mats which are shaped like trays and collect water and dirt. Also my Garmin GPS is in there. Since things like stove is used only during camping I don’t mind keeping it in my car just in case.

My future upgrades include:
Mounting a heavier alternator
Mounting a winch with theft/temper proof screws
Mounting better light system besides the standard headlight and halogen combo.
Mounting second spare to the hood
Front skid plate
Making a secure compartment (which I had in my old Jeep) to keep my cameras and more valuable gear
