I have been doing a bit of research for a while......

Value for money, fuel economy when not towing, towing capacity, reliability....

There is only one option....

For me anyway... A second hand option...

2005 onwards Jeep Grand Cherokee.
3 litre Mercedes V6 turbo diesel
510NM torque from 1600 - 2800 rpm.....
Only thing comes close is a V12 Turbo diesel Audi Q& $$$$$$$$$$$4
V10 turbo Diesel Towrag.. (no disrespect)
Yes the V6 turbo diesel towrag has similar figures but have you priced one?
Averages 10 l / 100k city / highway.
There are regularly examples for $30,000 on carsales.
There is one at Stanthorpe for $26,000...... 65,000k 2006.

Just my 2c
HI TM. I've been waiting for you chime in.... I found the the car you mentioned above I THINK but it had 75thousand K's and he wants $31500....
I assume you've done a deal...??? If so, great price as there are alot there in the mid 30's ++++++.

I've decided to not do anything for a while. My FILaw is loaning me his 08 Ford Ranger for a while so I'm not rushing out to buy anything until I sell the house.... SpookyPT
