I use an Argo for playing around in the bogs and Lagoons. They're amphibious of course. They have a very light footprint, are available in 6 or 8 wheel drive and I took the option of the slip-on rubber tracks which only take a few minutes to fit/remove.
The Argo is economical, auto, can carry up to 450kgs, you can get them with a PTO to power a spray unit or get the bigger alternator and run decent 12 pumps and winch.
Plus, I wanted one since the 60's cos of the "Banana Splits and so I bought one
'nother dream ticked on the bucket list 
"One Banana, 2 Bananas, 3 bananas 4. 4 Bananas make a bunch and so do many more!" :woohoo:

Just looking for turf tyres for my Jimny and also found a few options of wider off-road tyres without getting silly tall.
If you could find some 14" rims to fit the Jim, a set of these would be awesome: 27x12 R14 UTV tyres
how about some 29x12.50 15s?
A few 27x10.50 15s too.
So that's the low ground-pressure side of things covered!
