A change of style , Sold the 80 series and the Campomatic c/t .Now the fun begins of fitting out the 04 Holden Rodeo 3lt turbo diesel auto dualcab tray back for beach + desert trips . Bits + pieces to suit an 80 series soon on the trader.

You've done What? Sold the 80, how could you. My 6 year old son whats
mine when I upgrade, if I do.
No seriously, things change, and down sizing will help you guys to still enjoy your travels.
I am sure your new Rodeo will serve you
well. I've driven Mark G's Navara 3 ltr D/cab, it drives like a car. Now that's not a bad thing, I quiet liked it. Just that we've got a horse float to pull around and it's all we can afford ATM.
By the way Axel, you don't happen to have a left hand swing wheel carrier do you to suit a standard rear bar?
Just asking.

The l/hand Kaymar wheel carrier went with the vehicle, sorry .
As for down sizing ?
park an 80 next to a dualcab with alloy tray and see who is smallest , power wise difference is not so easy to measure.

Cheers Axel,
I had to ask, one day, one will come my way, not to worry.
My 80, being a 91, only has a 2600kg towing capacity, I know later models and a lot of 04 Dual cabs have a great towing capacity than
mine, but I feel safer in
mine. To tell you the truth I've never notice how much longer a dual cab with a tray is than an 80, Hmm
Can you get different tray lenghts, or are they all the same?
The Rodeo would have to be lighter on fuel, at a guess?
