We've enjoyed a full 5 years of selfless and unquestionable loyalty from the best automotive friend a man can have, a mighty class conquering Navara D40 V6. Like Abraham Lincoln, we wrote an Emancipation Proclamation and last Sunday we set our mighty Navara D40 V6 td free. She's gone north to enjoy some sunshine, and the cheque didn't bounce so there's a win. Tip for young players selling on Car Sales is brutal
The single most under rated car ever built was a true marvel, the 8th wonder no less. Not a single whinge as she spent 4 years carting tools, and 1 year carting us (overloaded) along and dragging our bloated overloaded Behemoth around Australia for 40,000km, on some very average roads.
Its a mere coincidence that we've offloaded the Navara at the same time we've wrung every dodgy tax cent out of owning it.
We did our due diligence just in case we've missed something obvious. We even considered Ram, Chev, and the Ford F truck but the prices were eye watering, payloads unimpressive, and its questionable who actually was liable for the warranty.
We looked at some very nice vehicles overall, including some which might keep running and some that historically probably wont. We also looked at the bottom feeders to get some perspective, DongFeng, Great Wall, Mahindra, Tata, and Landcruiser.
We've officially moved on and after serious research of careful consideration we've pulled the trigger on the acquisition of Crusty's New Steed. It shouldn't take much thought to guess where were are placing our faith for our future travel, but go on take punt anyway, there's a fridge magnet for who guess's correctly including the colour.
In line with the new forum policy of no pics of anything by anyone .... pics will have to wait for a bit
