About 5 years ago my 80 series landcruiser big end went and with my work trailer on and a fair way from home i was in a bind.
I found a car yard close by and bought the first ute i saw, a 98 XH ford longreach.
It cost $2000 and its still going strong now. All I've done to it is change tyres and put a canopy on.
I got $1800 for the cruiser from the guy in the petrol station across the road so the car sort of cost $200.
A big rough but not worried about getting in with my work clothes on and parking at shopping centres.
Cheers
Andy
