Yeah, I got one in Feb this . So far so good. It has plenty of power, very economical, comfortable and the
parking brake (foot operated) takes me back to my old bronco days. I don't think it comes close to my old 80 series for sheer off road ability and toughness but it should tow my van much more easily and economically. (I have refused to part with my 80 Series due to withdrawal symptoms. I love that 80 series).
Read the above link if you want to experience the highs and lows of your recent purchase decision. Fortunately I read it before I made the move to buy. Mind you, it will take a few days of solid reading. When I happened upon it it had 28 pages, it is now up to 79 pages and going string.

Hope... And you have already been sold one?!
Yeah they are a good thing for $50-ish, in my experiecne.. however, use on more arduous terrain sees them run out of
suspension travel (not a big deal unless you are P-plater and want to climb picnic tables at the local camground) and the standard fit tyres (vietnamese Kumhos) will vey quicky be torn/chipped on rocky ground - like, throw them away after 500km in typical High Country running.
