Thread: Land cruiser troopy

Have started my new job which was hoping to replace my ute for another . My peers in the contracting I'm doing all have vans . I hate vans with a passion but it's looking like I need more room So was thinking a troopy as it will carry all my gear , but can be dunged out and used to go hunting and camping .
Any one know much about them .? I'm assuming most second hand ones will be from mining or forestry , had a look at one and it's been completely painted underneath it's from a mine on coast . Any one privy as to how much abuse they get in these industries ? . Can't afford new one as they are big money .

A mine truck will be fcuked!
We have had quite a few come through work and all needed serious coin thrown at them to fix them.
Finding a troopie that hasn't been through the mines though will be very hard.

see if you can find one from up north , not many mines up here

Forestry guys use the ones up north, they get thrashed too.

The prisons (dept of corrections) use them as well.

I'll struggle to find "one lady owner " I'm guessing .. There are shit loads in Aussie they do them up real nice too . Wonder if the cost much over there ?

Had a look on an Aussie site last night, they certainly have some good looking rebuilt units there
