Thread: Hunting Vehicle - What too buy

So some here may know of the issues i have had over the last 12 months with my BT50.
While "shit happens" we have been without it for nearly 2 months out of the last 12 due to what actually seems lack of knowledge by various repairers or "waiting on parts".

No too mention i do not believe we should have had these issues with a 6 year old vehicle which has traveled less than 110,000 in its life


Since it is also my wifes "town car" this is slightly inconvenient for her. Not too mention its a bit nice to drve down shitty tracks etc.
We are considering buying a second truck so that I have something to use for hunting, dogs are allowed in etc and so missus has a vehicle if the BT50 poos itself for a 3rd time.

So I have been looking at (and I can't believe I am saying this ), Hiluxs and something between 2003 -2005 that has not done a million Kms and costs a million bucks (maybe arround $20K, less is better more maybe possible.

Any other suggestions would be great. I would prefer to stay away from a truck(s) with a common rail and goddamn ecus that control everything.
I have been led to believe the 2005 Hiluxs were the last of the non common rail ones.

What too look for??
