Thinking of buying a 2nd hand ute for the farm, as currently im using our family car for business work. no ideal as im clocking up the KM's
So not wanting to spend alot 15k or less has to be 4x4 km dont worry me as long as it has been well serviced, not too old either 2000 or younger.
So what make? Toyota Huilux is out of that price bracket i think. next best? Cheers

Once you get into older utes, maintenance is probably more important than brand. A courier or hilux would probably be my pick, but mitsis and rodeos are not bad either.

And also be aware that some crooks disconnect the odo so they don't have to pay ruc's.

it is, but with the right tools. not sure if they turn the odo off but typically hack the mileage counter and wind it back.

I knew a guy who did this to the extreme. The ute was rooted, and it only had 45K clocked up.
The "bone" caught up with him.
