General Comments
Anybody who wants a workhorse should know there is no better pick up than the Toyota Hilux 2.5 d4d 4x4. O.K so it does't have the performance of the Nissan Navara, or the syle of the Mitsubishi L200 but these will be dead while the Hilux will just be getting broken in.
Service intervals are great 10000 "intermediate" and 20000 "full" and the new D4D engine has loads of low down power and gives me between 35-40 mpg (leaves the others for dead) trundling around a private estate, Figures would be even higher on road. My Hilux is used in forestry and is quite regulary pulling trees out with tow bar. Have owned it for 1 year and of course had no problems. I sometimes drive a new Land Rover TD5 and believe me they are highly overated, basic, noisy, cramped and unrefined with slightly less ground clearance I believe. The only thing lacking on the Hilux is a locking front Diff though the back does lock up. Performance and style is not what it's about when buying a Pick up but strength and durability is, go on buy one.
