THE STIFFMEISTER 14,568 Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 Sory guys have to mention this..I believe it is impossible for you to have a car for the dogs ands use for the family..One or the other Im afraid If you are out regular your car will be in a shit state with Smells, hair blood and mess...I have had a van for the dogs, a car for my use, a car for the dogs and for my use neither of these options have worked out..so next i am getting a double cab Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My wife has a nice clean new people carrier that is a pleasure to drive :11: Just looking at getting a navara to keep the dogs/people seperate, although they are costly and use more fuel than my current car, I do about 1,400 miles a month and that isn't cheap now but a navara doing 30mpg compared to nmy renault 36mpg will be expensive, also thinking of getting a trailer?????
