al4x Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 why shooting hatch just lift the truckman top off and fabricate yourself some seats in the back, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodp Posted December 15, 2009 Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 Don't know if they offer air suspension on the model you are looking at but if they do DO NOT HAVE AIR SUSPENSION ! Google Hi lux air suspension to see the troubles. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the mirrors on them If its really cold or I don't take the top off I just shoot from the drivers seat, gun fits on a mat on the dash so dead easy to get to.

dodeer Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 I've got one. If you want the cheapest price in UK to buy one then pm me. Mine is a 3.0 D4D automatic double cab HL3 spec. Goes like a trooper , excellent off road, very nice to drive, 29mpg with A/T tyres, tows 2500kg, and personally looks nicer than any other pick up. Servicing quite expensive but any main dealer is. Seen a couple of highways agency ones that are 3 years old with 160,000 miles on them and still being booted about most days. If you intend to use it off road then get rid of the crappy tyres it comes with and stick some A/T's on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
