Should I Buy A Hilux?

[stuck in dubs]

I am currently considering trading in my 3 year old Rav4 for a Hilux. I think it useful for its extra pulling power and ruggedness for my agricultural related work. I don't need all the fancy extras since i have a car as well, so what model would you folks recommend and what sort of MPG should I expect.

It would need to be a crew cab since the family might want to come with me occasionally.

thanks in advance.

If you dont mind slightly lower spec, rarely carry more than 2 people and are more interested in economy I'd be tempted to go for a 2.5 HL2 Extra Cab - like this blinged up one that belongs to my mate Andy...

I actual;y think the Extra cabs look better proportioned.

this also give more deck lenght; double cab with 1520mm against extra cab with 1805mm
