Holden (Isuzu) Rodeo, two wheel drive single cab. Think it's a 96 model, turbo diesel and she cops a flogging. Poor girl has been known to have a one tonne machine on the tray whilst towing another one and a half tonne on the trailer. :eek: Good ute but I wish she had a sixth gear for freeway travelling. Not fun driving to Melbourne in a diesel with the engine constantly around 3250rpm.
Also have a 2003 Toyota Hilux 4x4 Dual Cab, 3.0l diesel. Nimble footed, comfortable (compared to Rodeo), tows well. Has fun on weekends ;). Just wish she was turbo....imagine driving to Queensland towing over two tonnes of machinery. Slow trip.
I have a 98 Landcrusher and pull up to 3 tonnes (11'9" horse float and two huges mules), which is legal as it is fitted with 4 wheel brakes and breakaway.Quote:

Apart from that I reckon the Suzuki Mighty Boy is one of the best utes I have seen:D :D
We just bought daughter a Falcon Wagon, does not impress me at all, wallows around and has no road feel at all compared to the Toyotas we have.
Had it checked out and got a clean bill of health, nothing wrong at all, so much for Jap crap.
What model? The EA wagon (late '80s) was bloody dangerous.Quote:

Goes like ##### off a shovel, give it a squeeze on the highway and you can actually overtake!
Although I did come out of a 4.2l naturally aspirated diesel Ford Maverick (The best Ford that Nissan ever Built) that I used to open the door and kick like Fred Flintsone when I wanted to overtake going downhill with the breeze behind me.
Takes one tonne in the tray without a problem, tows two like a dream, Flat 1800 x 1800 tray size is pretty much all I need without wheel arches in the way.
Handles the odd weekend in the mud well although it could do with a JC bar for SWMBO:D :D
Shep - I, too, have a radio and it has ONE station.[/quote]
mate in 98 the ute spent 3 days under water and now to turn the radio off i push in the ciggi lighter. the wipers turn it of as well. ist been a good ute. fixed the glow plug timer on the weekend by smaking it with a hammer.
oohroo
shep
