I guess it depends on what you want to do: just go find a remote place to camp and enjoy nature and peace and quiet, or prove what sort of obstacles you can conquer.

It seems to me that these days the really rough places are mostly popularized and filled with lots of people trying to prove what they can do with their rig, and break things on their rig.
I am not looking to build a "wheeler", but more of a Overlanding rig to go camping and explore. I will be doing mostly Forest Service road, BLM land, Fish and Wildlife areas, etc. The roads can get tough, but very little rock crawling or deep mud. If things get to radical, I will find another way. Biggest issue with this Suburban is breakover angle and departure angle. Both are hard to fix without massive lift or a bob, both would defeat my purposes and make it useless to me. So, I will live with it as is. I still need to be able to tow my 30ft travel trailer with it.
