[QUOTE="madtuna, post: 530770, member: 44"] What utter rubbish! Absolutely nothing to do with being a Jeep hater..I'm not, I actually like the Wranglers. Seems like a feeling got hurt, gee wizz...my bad!! It has nothing what so ever to do with hating Jeeps, it has everything to do with the reality of living in remote WA where 95% of vehicles on stations and mine sites are Toyotas. Every vehicle will suffer a break down out here, no matter the make. It has all to do with parts availability and service. If your Jeep needed a part in Laverton, it would have to be freighted in. If your Jeep needed a service in Laverton, there's a damn good chance it would need a flat bed lift to Perth. Not so with a Toyota. Yep I do maintain my Jap shopping cars, that's why they are reliable and don't tend to let us down. Incidentally, my personal vehicle is a Perentie. Ultra reliable and go anywhere, much prefer it than our cruisers. But there's no way I would have suggested one as they are not practical for what the OP wants. Again, parts have to be ordered in.
