[QUOTE="Fendtbro, post: 7482912, member: 111888"] Fairly low rpm torque, maybe comparable. Idle and take off torque must be different. Our manual 4.2 landcruiser’s will take off on a steep hill with 3 ton, at 800 rpm no sweat.. the new hilux won’t even take off until 1500 rpm with a red hot clutch. Pals navara is noticeably better.. All modern pickups need a bit of throttle to get up into the turbo before taking off with their glorified car engines, and I have seen every make of Unloaded pickup going except vw, stall on take off as driver leaves my yard. Car engines, 2 litre is fine. Pickups for hard towing, should have bigger engine options available. You can have half a dozen turbo’s on an engine but still stall on takeoff. I’m not too keen on automatic transmissions, rather a proper manual. As far as I can see, hgv’s still have big displacement engines.. as the transmission has no torque converter?? [/QUOTE]
