Default Perfect 20ft Seacraft Tow Vehicle.

4wd Diesel - 1ton payload - 43mpg =>

Miles More Performance From Hiace D-4D

Fuel consumption is an important consideration for any commercial vehicle fleet operator, but reliable figures can sometimes be hard to find. That's why Toyota's performance in the RAC/Fleet World MPG Marathon is such an important yardstick of performance.

In the capable hands of former racing driver, Andy Dawson, the Toyota Hiace 2.5 D-4D completed the 465-mile course on just 10.82 gallons of diesel. That's 43.04mpg - an impressive figure for a van carrying half its 1095kg gross payload.

Nissian Navara => 30+ MPG



http://www.nissan.co.uk/uk/navara/launch/index.html

With a class leading 171 bhp, which even the all new L200 will not match, and a 297lb ft of torque the new direct injection diesel engine is a perfect complement to the stunning rugged looks.

Or

The Mitsubishi L200 Double Cab => 30+mpg



Power comes as standard in an L200 with the 2.5 litre turbo charged 113 bhp diesel engine, delivering a massive 177lbs. Ft. at just 2000 rpm and will happily pull a mighty 2700kg. The Mitsubishi L200 Double Cab will deal with whatever you throw at it!!

Isuzu Rodeo Pickup sets economy Record
14/07/2006 22:10. A standard Isuzu Rodeo pickup has set a new fuel economy record by achieving a remarkable 52.01 mpg after being driven virtually non-stop from Lands End to John oGroats. The luxury four-door five-seat Rodeo Denver Max covered the entire 853-mile trip on a single tank of fuel, using only 16.4 gallons to achieve the record. It is the first time a diesel-engined one-tonne pickup has completed the challenge and the entire exercise took 22 hours from start to finish.

The 3.0 litre Rodeo was driven by Chris Roberts, Dealer Principal at Isuzu dealership St Austell Motor Group, Cornwall, supported by Service Technician co-driver, Matt Saunders. Chris said: "We practiced a little... // marathonrally.com

We drive what we drive because we can. If you have a large vehicle and you are on a trip to your favorite fishing spot
and lo and behold you discover you are getting less mileage then you thought. What are you going to do? Turn around and go back. I don't think so. This would be my choice for the
ultimate aquatic assault vehicle.
Ramp rage would not be a problem. [image][/image]
It matches NoBones

I owned at one time (with my first wife) a Revcon Motorhome.
This would be my second choice over the 650.

Now were talkin'
