Looking for a tough and reliable pickup - probably either new or nearly new for a relative who is a farmer. Will need to regularly tow 2.5t and will obviously lead a hard life. He doesn’t want a Navarra as I think he’s blown a couple of engines on the last ones they had. Also X-Class is out because of crap Merc customer service; and it’s a rebadged Nissan.
Are Toyota Hi-lux really the go to option - anyone got experience of running one? Or Mitsubishi L-200?

Looking into these - they have 125k mile warranty and an NFU member discount...
