G'day
Been visiting this site for a couple of years now and am ready to submit a question.
What year do you reckon was the best for the 100 series? The reason I ask is I'm in the market and almost got duped on the Easter long weekend into purchasing a Sept05 Sahara. I say duped as I told the sales rep that it is going to be my tow vehicle for a 2500kg caravan.
I then went home, checked out this site and found out about all the problems that the auto levelling suspension had with that model. So thanks Alan, JohnR,OT and the rest, you've saved me from laying out 60 grand for a car that would be totally impracticable.
BTW Toyota's response when questioned was "it will only go to low mode if you put more than 580kgs above tare weight", not quite enough to convince me to purchase.
So the question again - towing a 2.5 tonne caravan fully loaded, what do you reckon is the best year for a 100 series?
Thanks for your advice.
