Re: Import Pick Up comparison

There are quite a few options available for the specific role that I am investigating, however, the boss is also looking for something that employees can borrow for the weekend. Unfortunately, the Jackeroo he lent me last month (as it has a tow ball for a loaner camper trailer I was using, and the wagon doesn't), caught fire (I was in it!). Consequently, I sent it back to him on the back of a flat bed and retrieved the trusty wagon to carry out ferrying duties the following day. It went off without a hitch
My father in laws Territory Turbo did 2 trips; one to return his camper and a second for ours. Incidentally, the Turbos towing capacity only gives away 5kgs to the Hilux. Not bad for a "car" with an independent rear end.
