So my small tractor is rated to tow 4,000kg if equipped with brakes. Now I'm thinking of buying a tipping traile to transport some FYM, woodchip, and logs with it. Due to the 4,000kg limit I'm now thinking of buying a trailer that I can also tow with my car, rated at 3,500kg towing capacity. Am...

As the title suggests, I’m looking for a fresh vehicle to tow the cattle trailer. My brothers little Terios is up for swapping soon before he totally destroys it and I’m thinking a second motor fit to pull the 12ft trailer wouldn’t be a bad thing. He’s not madly keen on pick ups as they make...

How exciting! Just had a phonecall that reminded me that we must be well overdue another pickup topic. The call was from a call centre on behalf of the Ford motor company. It was to inform me that they had boatloads of Rangers available for immediate delivery and would I be interested in a...

Hello all, new here and first post.👋 I'm hoping (and I expect I'm not alone with this) that someone has encountered and solved the problem I'm experiencing. I bought a used 2016 2.5L Isuzu Dmax Blade with 55k on the clock about 6 weeks ago. The issue is the vehicle is doing a DPF regen in...

Looking at trading in my 2009 ford focus, its a 1.6l petrol, only done 76000 miles - lovely tidy car. Need a pickup for towing and moving stuff about, plus driving round fields on the farm. budget of the trade in plus a couple of grand at most. Looking at maybe ford rangers and l200s? Ive been...

I thought I would consult the experience and knowledge of the TFF members. With increasing fuel costs(£1.50-£1.80 here in the south west) Is it possible to mix Veg oil in to diesel to make it go a little further or am I asking for trouble. Vehicle in question, Isuzu DMax. If it is possible...

Anyone running a new 2.8 auto, how do you like it ?, fuel economy? ….

Morning All I've got a job looming and because of the potential for disaster it's been put off for too long. All the glow plugs on the LR are dead and need replacing. Do any TFFers have any tips to avoid issues and the best procedure? The old girl hasn't been run hard for a month or two and...

I have a customer on his way to me this morning in a Ford ranger , it has suddenly stopped dead , where should he start looking.

Pickups , what’s the other options ?

Sorry I wanted to tag this on to an existing pickup thread but could I ‘eck as like find one, Hull Mitsubishi sent me this and I thought it might be of interest

The time has come for me to look at changing my truck. Currently have a 60plate hilux which does the job but is getting long in the tooth now. The natural choice would be a new hilux but I must say I'm not overly inspired by it. The problem is any other pickup is always going to fall short of...

I'm looking for a replacement for my transit custom van. I would like a 4x4 pickup , it needs to be capable of towing a horse box catering trailer and will need to pull a 2.7 ton digger for my work also ! Budget will be around £14-15 K . I know they drink a bit of fuel but what be the most...

I hear on the grapevine that people are removing egr valves and associated parts, remapping the engines system and getting more power more torque and have done away with a troublesome component of the modern diesel engine - mainly JD engines, I suspect Does anyone have any comments, experience...

Ordered a new pickup dec 2020, arrived 30th June, electrical problem and air bag fault on way home from dealership. They came to collect the pickup after 3 or 4 calls, they wanted me to book the car in rather than come to collect it. They left me with a car not a pick-up and kept mine for 3 or 4...

Anyone having problems with the new Toyota hilux active?

Are we heading for a mad max future rationing of fuel food etc on its way or is it just sensationalist headlines, are you stocking up and if so what on ?

Looking for options to replace a van at mrs work (vet practice) they currently have 1 L200 and a few berlingo sized vans. The large animal vets are towing a tipper crush at times and there’s a bit of conflict with vehicle sharing so in an ideal word they would run 3 pickups. Seeing as there is a...

Just been talking to local guy who told me his 17 reg disco stopped on road now needs new engine costing at least 10k.... just out of warranty

My Navara is due for a change in the next 6-12 months, spoke to Nissan today, they (obviously) told me to pull my finger out because Nissan were stopping making the Navara and the last ones would be coming into the country in December. If I were to order today expect the new one to turn up in...
