Son has an agricultural service business, & for years has complained of the lack of
a vehicle to convey clients around in comfort & also carry merchandise. The
answer came last week in the form of a chopped 200 Diesel wagon. Chop &
chassis extension done in Hervey Bay. Dont know the name of the business, but
appears to be a very tidy job. Chassis extended by about 1/2 a metre maybe &
some sort of rear
suspension upgrade, allows for a tray back that is wider than
most dual cabs & probably a similar length...take a pallet easily. I wasnt able to
get GVM details, but will find out. He was also a bit shy on cost too, but the
business will handle that. I didnt think it rode any better (on rough stubble pdks)
than the previous hilux, & the turning circle is horrendous. But big inside with
all the usual wagon luxuries. That constantly shaking ARB bar would drive me
nuts, & make the spotties vibrate badly. Perhaps it is ok on good roads. Sorry
no pics..didnt get a chance yet...or a drive either....will work on it......oldbaz.
