G'day Biggy,
I use
mine for work (tree lopping) every day & take it bush when I can. It really shines on difficult roads, but is as slow as in city traffic with a loaded trailer behind it.
We just got back from a 5,000 km trip (around 2,500 on dirt roads) with 4 adults on board & it never missed a beat.
It towed a camper trailer up the
Oodnadatta track, including the side road to the
Peake ruins,
the painted desert, Finke, Mt Dare, Dalhousie, Lambert's centre, the old Ghan
heritage track, Chamber's Pillar, Alice,
Mereenie loop,
Palm Valley & Kings Canyon.
It has done 2 trips to the Flinder's, including all the gorges.
Earlier this year it towed a camper trailer through the
Gawler ranges.
Last year it did an 11,000 km trip including the
Gibb River Road, the Bungles & Jim Jim road.
I'm sure I've forgotten some of the
places it's been, but you get the idea!
I haven't had ANY of the issues I read people writing about on internet forums about D22's.
It's coming up 2 years old, so time to trade it for tax purposes, I've had a trade in price & it's held it's value really
well. I got
mine for $28,880 on road & they're offering me around that as a trade in.
Cheers,
Kevin.
