Moby 0 Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 a fourtrack is rated the same as a landrover so i am told your told wrong then mate, there is no way on this planet that a fourtrak will ever ever tow 3.5 tonne and be safe doing it, it would push you straight off the road, 110 Defender or a discovery is the only way to go, I have a few trailers at work and they are plated at 850kg, basically it allows me to put 2150 kg's on the trailer, now Plenty of people go on about the Landcruiser being the dogs danglies, but when you move vehicles up and down like I do you get to know quite quickly what cuts the mootard, the Landcruiser is grand until you really put the weight on and they too get pushed around, good piece of kit Toyota don't get me wrong but they aint the real deal when it comes to towing heavy gear. a four track is rated to tow 3 1/2 ton.got to agree about it not towing it safley but it will certainly pull it,had a few fourtracks over the years and always towed trailers with them they are a good tool.once i could afford it though i got a discovery and it nearly halfed my diesel bill.

shaun v 3 Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 (edited) denver max rodeo the new models are suplyed with a power pack to boost the horse power. we use it to pull a ifor williams horse trailor with a 16.1 horse inside and it does the job easy with a good mpg , it also does a good job off road with the dogs with the correct tyres on. new model is just out with a more powerfull engine Edited August 15, 2007 by shaun v Quote Link to post Share on other sites
