Heaps of Pajeros on the road.

[Mini me]

After spending a week at Hervey Bay, it was great to see the amount of Pajeros on the road and towing different sized vans. Pajeros were also very popular on Fraser Island towing. Couldn't fault my 2013 Pajero towing our 16.55 Starcraft. Averaged 16.5 - 17.5 Lts per hundred at 100kph Rockhampton to Hervey Bay.

When we were at Tallebudgera a few months back I reckon 60-70% of the tow vehicles in the park were Pajero's, I'm on my second and for what you pay for them you get a lot of bang for your buck.....

I have a 2014 Paj, I will be the first to admit it is not a 200 series but it was $40k less than that.
2 gripes I have with it, it is noisy and it has more rattles than a baby store.

The Prado is smaller in the back, also when you dont want the seats in the Paj there is a massive boot well to use as well.
I like the Prado for driving comfort though.

Yep plenty out there because people know that they are value for money, all round great tourer, very capable off road and an awesome tow truck only to be let down by the ridiculous ball weight restrictions once you exceed 2.5 ton. It's little brother the Challenger has a smaller engine with the same tow rate but the full ball weight capacity, guess it due to having the full chassis (same as Triton)

Stay at Young on the long weekend there was 9 Pajero's (including mine) in the park most of the towing Jayco's of some sort, in fact the place looked like a bloody Jayco dealership.

The Isuzu MU-X is getting pretty popular also.
