2009 2.7, 250,000 km manual.usual maintenance , new clutch 200,000km. absolutely NO failures , no accessory failures, no roadside assist . two light bulbs burnt out. best vehicle i have ever owned.
Mine has about 235,000 Kim to date. Still doing it’s job. Just installed a new stereo unit so I have Bluetooth. Will have a video on that soon. I take this Ute everywhere with confidence that it will get me there. Glad you have had the same experience.
Just picked up a 2011 Hilux 2.7L Petrol today. Just turned 105,000km and drives well. It's a manual and not too sure how much life the clutch as left on it, doesn't have a tachometer so hard to judge the revs. Hope you are still enjoying yours.
Hey mate, I’ve got a 2006 workmate exactly like yours, I was wondering if there are any modifications you would do to your workmate, I want to look at getting a nice bullbar I’ve already got some spotties 👍
I have updated the radio so I have apple car play. I want to get a reverse camera. I was tempted to get a nudge bar and add some led driving lights. I would like to update the seats to something more comfortable (currently have a gel back rest for better lumbar support.
@@neilcox7879 They really need a more fuel efficient motor. The 2.7l has been around since the mid 90's. Still seeing it in new utes is very poor form from Toyota. I know they are still in production due to how bullet proof they are meant to be.
the lack of fuel economy i the petrol is recuperated by that fact they're cheaper to maintain compared to the diesel. they're easy as piss to keep running for 500km +

Hi Alf, I have been watching you on Home and Away for years. You are a fantastic actor. I like that you are branching out into car videos.

Very informative..thanks for sharing..
Thanks
Me cousin had a 2006 workmate. 2.7 I think. It had 450,000kms and he sold it for $8,000
They are getting silly money. Saying that, I take mine everywhere with 100% confidence of getting there and back.

@@RoadsOfOz sounds awesome mate, if you did buy a nudge bar, where abouts would you buy it
Castle Hills cool 😉.
How bad is the fuel economy I heard the petrol ones are thirsty
Anywhere from 11-13litres per 100 kilometres
I’ve got a 2021 auto model and it drinks fuel like there’s no tomorrow. Very disappointing.

@@konival9753 this is true also isn't as bad when 91 isn't at $2 a litre
