Thanks Scott, I´m apparently not familiar with the Danish off-road community, could you give me some insights on this...?
BTW I was not able to make it to the the Allrad in Germany, had to head home and fix a leaking EGR-cooler. This is now fixed with a new unit.

Very beautiful!
Morocco is on my list! How difficult was the trip in regards to good fuel and safety?

Hi Don,
Fuel quality is not as good as in Europe, although my truck has a "modern" common-rail engine and need decent fuel it worked alright, - even in Western Sahara where diesel quality will be poor I had no problems. (I actually had a problem with poor diesel in France on my way down to Africa, and had my truck stop due to paraffin in the rails....) On my G I run a combined pre-filter with a heater and a water-separator and I also added some diesel-booster/injector-cleaner on a regular basis.
Safety is no problem as long as you use your common sense - just as when traveling elsewhere.
Have fun

now I don't mind leaving the US... ;-)
but my G has a 5liter V8 gasoline with the thirst of a horse after a 10 day postrun... I guess the fuel quality for gasoline isn't perfect either (maybe with need to run a pre-filter)
regarding safety I am only concerned that some stupid idiots come over the border and are looking for trouble.
Morocco is propably the 'safest' place down there...

In North Africa gasoline will be a bit more rare than diesel ....
