Man Trucks are cool! I am really taken with mine, it looks good (in my opinion) especially with my beefed up tyres. It is comfy and has all the toys. It's not a V8 though. I bloody wish it was!
Again, I've looked at virtually all 4x4s over the last few years either for me, My Mum or my Dad. So if you need some non expert opinions feel free to give me a shout!
Shoguns are a real good shout. 3 or my close friends have them of various ages and none of them have had any issues. Apparently when they changed there was a year of dodgyness though. My Dads winter hack is a top spec '06 LWB and it's been fine. he had one as a winter hack years ago, it was a '94 and he bought it from a good mate of mines dad (who had it from new) in about 2000. My Dad sold it to a guy he knew a couple of years later and he is still using it. It's never needed anything major!
