[QUOTE="ken2m, post: 290060, member: 7269"] You could try a 90 series prado or even 120 series. The 90 series you would be able to pick up a good one for the 8k the 120 might cost slightly more and the clearance (standard suspension) is I think 45mm less. The 3.4l petrol engine will usually do 500,000km with no major work needing to be done. NSW or QLD are the best places to pick them up and it may even pay to go there from other states to get a better price or buy online. They are massive fuel users in the suburbs but on the open road they get heaps better economy. I presently get 250km on gas and 350km on petrol in the suburbs from (both) 68l tanks but I do know which pedal makes it go faster. On a country/highway trip I get 400km and 550km sitting at 110km/h. You may even get a lift for the 90 series within your budget. If you are seriously thinking prado it may pay to join pradopoint.com . Ken. [/QUOTE]
