Stick to a proper 4x4 like your rangey.
total rubbish I have used a 4x4 for years towing all over the country I have had an L200 there OK but crap on fuel and the turning circle is rubbish,swapped it for an Hi lux then swapped again 3 years later for the new 3.0L auto invisable which is a stunning pick up truck returns 30 plus to the gallon no problem towing in fact i have had more then 30 towing on the motoways.
the opls Navaras are a buy tractor ish the newer ones are better,but out of the lot the Hilux 3.0l is the daddy
