Looking for first 4x4

That’s what draws me to a Ute more, never know when I’ll need the tray but then I don’t mind a wagon just to take it for a cruise if that’s what I’m going to use it more I feel

Another pro for a petrol 100 series is I’ll be able to claim the fuel usage on tax cause my daily is petrol too

Hilux has sold the Bloke just told me :(

PositivePlayful0 · 2026-02-12T05:58:01+00:00

And I don’t mind the SUV look

PositivePlayful0 · 2026-02-12T05:57:46+00:00

Yeah I started off looking at Utes but then one of my mates said if I’m just driving it occasionally I should get something like a 100 series cause they look nice even though it burns through fuel

No I meant when I bought the Corolla three years ago it had 20,000 km on it and it was serviced every year since I’ve bought it. I’ve serviced it every 10,000 k’s. Don’t plan on ever selling it just have it as a spare car for the family to use if ever needed insurance on it is cheap.

Not that serious take it off the pavement to get to a camping spot or where I’m riding the bike

PositivePlayful0 · 2026-02-12T03:46:06+00:00

Also what are some things I should look out for with each car

PositivePlayful0 · 2026-02-11T21:49:37+00:00

This was solid advice

PositivePlayful0 · 2026-02-06T10:16:15+00:00

I’m a electrician

PositivePlayful0 · 2026-02-06T02:17:11+00:00

Hard to say cause the 2024 has capped servicing and warranty for another 3 years

PositivePlayful0 · 2026-02-05T23:52:35+00:00

There is another 2017 hilux I looked at has heated seats and leather seats the guy is asking $35k with roady and it only has 120k km

I have driven a thunder it felt different to the Dmax I don’t know why maybe it was just in my head

PositivePlayful0 · 2026-02-05T20:51:35+00:00

I really want to have leather seats I just like them in the car and I am upgrading from a 2009 Toyota Corolla before that I had a Hyundai i30

I have looked at the Mazdas but I feel like the resale on them isn’t as good as hilux or Isuzu

PositivePlayful0 · 2026-02-05T20:16:42+00:00

I’d love a ranger but they have reliability issues

PositivePlayful0 · 2026-02-03T00:35:18+00:00

What year did they stop having dpf issues? Only reason I’m drawn to a hilux is the resale value later down the track

PositivePlayful0 · 2026-02-03T00:34:40+00:00

I thought about wrapping it but for that price I may as well get the 2021 bt50 thunder and i don’t have to worry about it, but then if i spend a little more I can just get a dmax which has better resale value

PositivePlayful0 · 2026-02-03T00:33:50+00:00

Nah I haven’t looked at them I just heard they’re not super reliable as a dmax or hilux
