why do you want a 4x4 ? insted of a van
well, i live right out in the country, literally in the middle of know where, when it snows i dont even step outside the door let alone go out in the car or van. and just lately my van has got stuck in all the mud, i would say 3 times this week. i go up to a lot of farms real muddy tracks, i just think it would be ideal. and also if i have the kids, 2 of. its awkward with my van cause i only have 2 seats.
our car is a little too small for all of us going on long journeys, so would be ideal for that too.
looking at the l200 double cab pickup. get a nice flat tank in the back, probably get one made. 2 hose reels on the fold down boot. get 2 nice pole carriers on the roof. big DI vessel in back. would look well pro and like i say is a win win all round for me. and looks as though it does better mpg than a transit or the like would
