Sounds like a good mix of vehicles. I wasn't actually expecting people to spend time on this, I was just sort of looking for limited experience. I also have the Toyota Hilux on the list, although I don't know how easy replacements would be. They manage it in northern Africa, but I don't know about southern Africa.
It might be an interesting trip, but I'm more of a green-terrain sort of person, so I'll leave it to you, although going out in the savanna would be interesting. I'm also not terribly fond of the heat, which would sort of doom me. Though Botswana seems relatively stable, and hopefully the tourist business will keep it that way. I never know about Caprivi though.
I was looking up prices too, but that's a pain. Most of the features that the Range Rover, Liberty, etc. come with are probably not what you want out in the bush. Unfortunately the only sites I can find with prices are clearly geared toward Americans.
