[QUOTE="Kidds, post: 7954129, member: 5589"] I took my Cabstar to places my Navara would get stuck. I'm not pretending they are the best of things off road but a bit of weight on the back, some mud and snow tyres and an experienced driver will get you a long way. I don't think the price of cars is going to come down and even if it does I think you just won't be able to find them anyway. If you do think about a Cabstar the old Terrano axles used to fit on them, not sure if they still do. The point being that Terrano axles have an LSD in them. Another point is the single rear wheels have better grip and more payload as the weight of those extra two wheels comes off the payload. The advantage of the twin wheelers is the rear axle can carry more weight itself. This allows for the payload to be put nearer the rear, personally I would stick with single wheels. The older twin headlight Cabstars were the best, 1.35 ton payload and after the first ton they were sat on the rubber axle blocks, you could put as much on as you like and they still sat the same. Had just over 3 ton of carrots on mine. :D [/QUOTE]
