On the reliability side of things,we had a Ranger at work for about a year on a windfarm job,it took a lot of abuse and the only bother it gave was a rear leaf spring.
The L200 however wasn't so good,it was in the local garage most weeks with various different issues,driveshafts and springs being it's favourites.
We also had 3 Toyota Hilux in our little fleet and they were good reliable tools,don't remember having any issues with them
