Is it just oz?? I believe ive seen some well warranted moaning on here as well from UK 🇬🇧, is it a global thing in the western world now?? Pretty much now if they day they call back i keep on searching as it is very rare iget a call back...im only a small farmer in the scheme of things but i...

Looking for a second hand truck. Hope to keep it for a while as won’t be doing many miles a year, so I want something reliable When out of warranty. am i right in thinking that a newish ford and VW have the same Ford engine which has reports of been unreliable. How old would I have to go to get...

So they’ve got the same chassis, gearbox, engine and suspension. Body panelling are different marginally but effectively they are the same vehicle. The price difference is £5000-£6000 for the same model with the Amarok being more expensive. However the Amarok has 5 years warranty where as the...

Just wondering about the justifications for vehicle towing limits. Last week I took a couple of steers in with my Freelander 2 and IW trailer. To be honest I was probably (!) close to the limit as it has a towing capacity of 2 tons. However it went like a dream, I hardly noticed the trailer...

Due Mid 2024, Toyota launching the new 2.8l diesel/electric invincible pickup More details here https://mag.toyota.co.uk/hilux-hybrid-48v-intro/?fbclid=IwAR2MTyyB4eZoDZeo41Z-FCyK9NHsCP3DcoCgYe96sn-DF5obQW1OC3gz1_0_aem_AXj_sJHkFIbD9SvBT9RParACmQVUGMdykf8LPVXIDz66EpcTSaZqpeGFgIpCIkNjBkU

Any suggestions for an all round vehicle please. Both a farm vehicle and family vehicle. It’ll be used for towing a ifor Williams at times, running across fields during harvest with bowsers/tools etc. Then on the daily school run as well as holidays in this country. Basically my only vehicle for...

It’s a 69 plate version and at 6 months old the belt that’s runs around the front of the engine onto the steering shredded. A new one was done on warranty. Ran fine until a month after warranty ran out and the steering went heavy. Had it with a local mechanic who replaced the belt even though...

Just seen on twitter that HMRC are to re classify crew cabs as cars for employees. As a Ltd Co. reckon it's back to pickups and wee vans. However the cost of them will maybe have stifled demand as it is. Best get the wax oil out and look after my current Hilux...

Currently getting some quotes to change the pick-up :nailbiting: One of the quotes has come back with spray-on bed liner, rather than a plastic tub. Anyone with experience of this? Is it as good as they claim? How does it compare to the tub insert?

Anyone done this?

It must have been a good few weeks since we last had a pick up thread... 😅 Company vehicle, not farm work, occasional towing and off road but mostly used as a car. Hilux probably top of my list, but even up to 2 years old / up to 20,000 miles they seem to demand such strong money it makes the...

I currently have a Freelander 2, which I am very happy with, that might be about to come to the end of its life. I am pondering what to replace it with. I don't need to tow more than 2t so another Freelander is an option but I think I would prefer something heavier/more capable so I keep my...

Looking at getting an other of the above both used or anything else to come close ? Had both in the past Thanks

Hi, has anyone experience of the NZ share milking process that had enabled new entrants to build equity to eventually start out on their own? I understand that it’s probably not viable now due to increased land prices but I’d still like to understand the process. How long it would normally take...

Seem to get a lot of punctures this time of year in wife's Volvo. Farm track and hedge cutting often to blame. Just wondering if anybody knows of a tyre sealant that can be used on road and doesn't damage the tpms device in the tyre? We use oko for the farm vehicles but it's not recommended for...

I wanting to find out if cross climate tyres do give more grip and better braking in snow and icy conditions. Have been using winter tyres but thinking they are over kill for the amount of times we get snow on the Cotswolds. Don’t get me wrong winter tyres really do work but loose their gripping...

What are people thoughts regarding expensive vs cheap LED lights?

Evening all not sure if right place to post but here goes! I'm due a new company truck, we get a choice between Hilux and Ranger, there's a few different variants to choose from but all Ranger or Hilux available to us on the list will cost about the same out of my wages each month. I was set on...
