if you can get a 24 valve with manual box they are very efficient. the autos, 12 valves and FTE (100 series) not so much. my 80 does the same mpg as my 2015 hilux, and is actually better than the lux when towingThat 4.2 was so understressed and they had a bit of weight about them and a lot less overhang than a pickup. Liked a drink mind.
