[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 7938395, member: 718"] My father bought a Mini pickup while I was off working elsewhere. God knows what made him do it. It was old and hand painted and was absolute crap in every way possible. We changed it in probably 1978 for a Subaru pickup which was in a different league. Very thirsty and not particularly reliable though. That lasted, I think, until 1984 when I bought the LR110 Hi-Cap pickup which did sterling service for 22 years. Would never consider a smaller pickup than the 110 long wheelbase Land Rover. Current pickups are mostly around 130” wheelbase and double cab of course, which is probably why the ‘traditional’ Land Rover short wheelbase [88 or 92”] people think that they are ‘big’. Personally a king cab [cab and a half] would suite me fine, as my first Ford Ranger was, but they don’t tend to hold their value as well as double cab pickups. I have been surprised by how little I miss the lost extra foot bed length of my current double cab pickup compared to the 110 and shorter cab previous Ranger. [/QUOTE]
