I'm still really glad with my HZJ79 Landcruiser pickup. I use it for surveying in the field, beaches, along dikes in forests, carrying all my tools, towing trailers etc. It has 540 000 km on it and still going strong. It never lets me down and brings me everywhere I want to go. But the kids grow quite fast and the single cab is getting a bit too cosy if the wife is not at home and I have to bring kids to school for example. She starts complaining that I should get a proper double cab or something. And besides that, 540 000 kms is quite a lot and it won't live forever I'm afraid...
Regulations over here make it impossible to drive hilux/ranger double cabs as a company vehicle, so taxes are wild... A friend has a transporter 4 motion that I use sometimes. You can't compare it to my landcruiser at all, but it makes it possible to enter and leave a field without getting stuck every time. The transporter 4motion pickups are quite rare over here and expensive. How about Ford transit 4x4's and the older Fiat Ducato 4x4's? Is it full mech 4wd like rangers, hilux's etc. or with visco clutches and crap like that?
Not many pickups that are on a 1.50 metre width
