goldypurple Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 not as good as a proper land rover but very capable, depends what you want from it, i found the ranger more jucier than my 200tdi 110 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landyboy Posted April 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 not fussed about off road capability, i tow a 16 ft tilt bed trailor often with 2 tonne on board, thinking Discovery TD5 but possibly a pick up these seem the best value out there.

ferguson_tom Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 I dont own one but wish i could, 3 of my friends are running them now and love them. They have the highest tow weight of all the pick ups about 3 tonne i think. Its a comfortable truck on the road and tows well with plenty of power especially the 3.0 TDCI. Off road I am yet to see one stuck in a wet field with a caravan on the back or Ifor trailer towing their vintage tractors or steam engines. Obviously not as good on an off road course as a landrover but thats not what its designed for, and they are reliable so far heard of no major issues with any of my friends. If i get a massive pay rise a t work this is what i would get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmer-of-the-Futre Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Weve had a few rangers for farm trucks. All have done very well and my dads just got a 2010 thunder. Very nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
