Time to consider a new car and I was thinking about going for a double cab pickup (second hand of course). Has anyone made the swap from car to pickup and if so what was your experience? There are a lot of reports saying that they drive much more like cars these days, but are not quite there yet.
My two favoured options are Navara or Hilux. I?ve looked at various reviews and there seem to be some questions about the Nissan?s reliability and safety whilst the Hilux is more ?workman like? with fewer creature comforts. However, most review sites have both vehicles ranging from zero/five stars ? most horrid thing I?ve ever driven or owned to five/five ? the best vehicle in the world.:dunno:
The basis for this choice is I?m doing more green laneing and thinking about doing more track days so something that can move bikes would be a distinct advantage as I don?t have enough space to keep a trailer at my house. My son is also getting into schoolboy motocross as well so I?m spending more time lugging him and the associated kit round the place as well - seems like a good idea, discuss...
