Gidday all,
I have a mate who wnats to buy a 99 2.8TD Patrol with 96K on the clock, the dealer wants $27,000. He intends on towing a horse float with it, does it have enough to pull it or not and is the money OK.
Anyone with experience?
Thanks Mick

IMO , no it wont.
A Friend of
mine owns a 2.8 and he tows his Campertrailer with it , but he says it runs out of puff REAL quick.
Nothing wrong with the actual vehicle and or motor , but towing ISN'T what you buy one for.
Look elsewhere.
PS , $$$ is certainly highside.
You can buy 98/99 4.5 Ti Patrols for that sort of money (not that you would , but , in comparison)
