It's already inherited a name similar to that and i'm on the lookout for a suitable private plate to avoid any long standing gags .

Pulled well though, load was a little unbalanced but plenty of power. Would have preferred an auto box but not too many of them around in the 3.0 LWB spec

You'd have been lucky mate!!! The 3.0 auto is the holy grail!!!

You're better off with the manual for towing though as the braked towing weight for the auto is less than its manly manual brother

Each to their own!!!! We're all happy with our own trucks and the way we style them that's what makes us unique, we are a diverse group of SWB, LWB Manual, Auto, 2.4, 2.7, 3.0, Maverick, Mistral Terrano, Patrol lovers.

Each and everyone of us loved as much as the next member

There will be no Terracism here
