Tiff 36 Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 don't know anything about the taxes and such, but we had one for 10 years before Kye decided he wanted to be Evil Kneival and jump a telephone pole. Put 280k miles on it, never got us stuck, but some of the parts are quite expensive (water pump for a honda accord is $50, the Rodeo it was $250, that sort of thing). That being said if I could find another one, I'd buy it in a heartbeat Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shaddow 166 Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 all grunt and no go . navarra is best 4x4 pick up on the road for use , had all of them and i personally rate the new navara as no 1 better seller too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DDD 4 Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Just remember the navara engine has no timing belt tension on start up - due to the fact that the tensioner is run off engine oil pressure Unbelievably poor design. Gone through various 4x4's (even landys) now have a L200. Rangers & Rodeo's do tend to get stuck but could be driver input??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
