Thread: diesel vs petrol

If it came down to a bet on which would take off the steepest with a heavy load without getting into low box between my turbo auto landcruiser which was THE tow wagon to have for many many years and dads auto 2.8 colorado my money would be on the colorado, towwing his 2 tonne plus boat or 3-4 tonne of metal just doesnt phase it, it will smoke the tires if it cant move fast enough.
I havent driven the nissan or amorok tho the amorok is often said to be too high geared for off road use, auto hiluxes have a very tall 1st as do the manuals and I can definitely see how you could have your problem with one of them as they just wont get moving off the line even empty on the flat.
