Good morning Just a short note to introduce john and Linda to you all.  we are about to start retirement but need some advice.  We have a 2006 Nissan Navara 3.0 Litre Turbo diesel, bought form brand new with 169,000 km on the clock.  We are about to get electric brakes installed and a new suspension system. Does anybody have the same vehicle and can it tow a campervan weight about on average 1500 kgs.

I used to own a 2007 twin cab - same motor I believe - it will eat the task, my off-road camper was just on 2000 GVM.
