    Hey Gibbo, we all need to win lotto and get the Patrol and decent van and money to have time to use it! . Good job getting it back together 😊

      Thanks for watching - well we won't be travelling again until we have a vehicle sorted. Fingers crossed it won't take long. Anya

    Looking good mate. I remember you saying your warranty was voided because of the mods. All mods are covered under ford/ARB when ordered with vehicle. Give it a look see mate.👍

      Yes, we are aware of that - thank you though. That's what will be doing, if we go that way. Anya

      Yeah, you're right, we want to order the v6 with mods, so it is under warranty.

    I thought my Ranger PX111 was nice to drive until I bought a Next Gen Ford Ranger V6. They're not the biggest selling vehicle by luck, the Ranger is a great vehicle to drive day to day and when it comes to towing it does it with ease. Yep everybody knows someone with a story about every car out there so take a Ranger for a test drive, I reckon you'll love it.

    Started off towing my 18ft road owl with a 2022 GLXR Triton after 6 months on the road we realised it wasn’t handling the job so we up graded to ford ranger XLT V6 we have just finished 7 months on the road doing about 20,000klms with no issues I not saying it’s the perfect vehicle it tows well and averages about 18 litres per 100

    Have a dmax towing 20ft van with no problems so far uses more fuel which is to be expected all in all a ripper of a car in my opinion but everyone to there own cheers Craig

    I came across a bloke stalled 3 weeks ago near a roundabout with a decent sized van on the back..Ranger V6 not even 12months old...it just stopped..no power, nada..nothing.
    We checked under the bonnet no smells, build leaking..nothing unusual.
    Then I asked him to start the car..there was nothing on the dash..dead black as a dead dingo's dongga....no warning lights, no radio, no hazards, no lights...nothing...but the engine was still cranking and wanting to start.
    It seemed to be a "electronics issue"..so he called for backup..luckliy he had top roadside cover...
    Nuff said....

    I know what you are talking about re the vehicles ie Landcruisers, Patrols etc - they are really holding their values. I have a 1992 80 series land cruiser - 4.1 litre diesel none turbo plus a 2001 land cruiser GXL 100 series 4.1 turbo diesel. I would not sell them and although I don't tow a van either but those types of vehicles would be ideal and reliable for your needs.

      Yep, more reliable than any of the new ones! 👍😎👍

      Yep, the v6 is our choice at this stage.
