looking at getting a new or near new 4x4 asap. never considered it before but suddenly the idea of a ute is getting more appealing.
the requirements for the new 4x4 are the following;
*fit 2 large dogs for day to day use aswell on extended periods + luggage.
*fit drums and musical equipement
*be easy to drive for daily use especially for reverse parking and city driving.
*off road use consisting of lots of beach work and light to medium weekend play around the sth east qld area pretty much every weekend.. no rock crawling
It will be a daily driver and not needed for huge payloads like tradies would need at all. The other thing is i am pretty keen on getting a manual after 13 years straight of autos... so a nice easy manual gearbox would be great too. Will definetely be diesel... I was pretty keen on a jeep wrangler unlimited or a late model prado ( very different i know) but suddenly a dual cab ute like the D Max or Triton looks more apealing with our dogs getting bigger by the day
would appreciate it too if mentioning your own vehicle you could say the cons aswell... i know everyone says their 4x4 is the best thing since sliced bread but would like come criticisim too
Thanks for all your help
