    Default What ute do you drive?

    I've got a 1995 Triton Dual Cab 4x4. The old style -there are stacks on Epay.

    Nice, I couldn't afford the Hilux.

    13 February, 1984 I first regisdered Hilux 4-door 1.8lt, manual, petrol, two wheel drive. It's travelled 113597 km and other than service costs I've spent less than $1000 on it and that includes one new set of tyres.

    Is it 'run-in' yet?????

    Shep - I, too, have a radio and it has ONE station.

    I don't like travelling in the ute any more - the law says I have to wear a leash and the boss gets niggly when I bark at the other cars

    2002 Hilux 2wd with an extended aluminium tray. Have done 85,000km; had to replace a front gearbox bearing at 70000 (warranty period plus one day )

    Spent $1200 fitting boxes to the back and underneath - VERY happy with the boxes setup. Also have ladder racks I can put on if needed. Other than the bearing it has run like a dream.

    Not really a ute but that's what I use it for.

    Thats what i did with my 1996 Frontera, removed the rear seats and built a big box in the back with lift up covers. Stuck some Rhinorack roof racks on and i can carry 6 18mm 1200*2400 sheets of MDF on any more then the roof creeks to much.
    Planning on changing it this year as it has got 230,000 on it now.
