    I'd say most use there Utes on the farm on a regular basis at least in this area.

    I think Perazzi summed it up bloody well.

    I've been using 4wd's for work for about 7 years now in a couple of different jobs and I'd rather have a more capable 4wd that is worse on the road, even when the majority of k's are highway. It makes up for it when you actually need it

    maybe I'm in the minority, wouldn't be the first time

    And yet when you hook a heavy boat on behind the 2.8 Colorado auto and put the boot in it will smoke the rear tires if traction control is off and scrabble for grip if on while accelerating like there is nothing hooked on behind at all.

    Why would it be any different than the 2012 I have? Only issue has been a crook tail tight and had to have breaks skimmed, and yes it gets used Off road. Just like a rental.

    I think it's called looking a gift horse in the mouth (which I'm sure you're not). I've been lucky enough to be supplied with late model utes of every description for the best part of 20 years. I wouldn't dare bitch about a free ride regardless of the name on the side. Funny thing is I've never had a Hilux other than the one I bought myself. I just like stirring up fanboys regardless.

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    My new ones even better. I couldn't think of a worse affliction than being both a Blaser and a Hilux apologist.
