what part of ol mexico. i know about keeping low key. when we go our ranch we always take our oldest crappiest looking truck. we do not want to draw attention to ourselves. also you didn't say what kind of offroading you would be doing. our ranch is the sierra madre and we took our stock 06 4x4 expedition up the mountains. the roads were really bad and we were stock and our truck did just fine. we were smart and drove carefully, but 2nd gen and 3rd gen are probably the least desirable trucks for offroading stock. the only thing i like about our trucks is the IRS gives a slightly higher clearance which did help on the bad roads.
I am in south central Mexico just outside of the city. People think it's bad on the borders, and it is, but down here there are +35 million people crammed into a valley. The problems are down here too. Maybe not to the same degree, but just as prevalent.
I don't plan on doing lots of extreme adventuring, I just can't afford to get stuck. I'll be going with one rig and there isn't any AAA around here. If things get bad, the best I can count on is a tractor or two and the manpower of something like 5-10 locals.

The Vin number and the door sticker should give you all the info you need regarding which transmission and gear ratio is in that vehicle. If looking at the Vin there are plenty of sites you can find thru Google to "translate" the Vin.
