Is it a DMax (just going on the 4x4 sticks on the rear side?

Nice unit.

Our DMax is coming up to 100K and no problems (banging my head furiously as I say that).

You will have to change your log-in details from its current Ford Territory.

If it is a DMax, the only minor issue I have is the scratch marks inside the external door recess - like its been scratched by fingernails or sharp stones from a weeing ring. In hindsight I would have got the clear plastic covers fitted to this park of the paint work.

Also on the right side rear panel right behind the wheel, they do (or used to) put a clear or colour coded plastic strip up the edge for stone chipping. Mine has lots of stone chips in it, but for some odd reason not the left side, which you would expect given that its on the gravel road side....

Macka gets the wooden star, Ford Ranger Wildtrac. Was the one that suited us so now she is a family member.

Yes Doug we are looking for a decent second hand van around 18 ft that is not going to kill us. The missus wants the kitchen up grade and as she is the money earner I obey, cheers

Just cruising. NOT bush.
I looked around in the 12\14k range.
There are a lot of good out there.
One that stands out, in my eyes. value for money.
Are the full height Tandem Coromals.
Ally frame. Fairly light. tow exceptionally well. and some as good as new.

I bought a 535 Tandem. '98\99 model. New Aircond. decent inside.
$12k out the drive.
Ins market value was $18.900, or $19.800?.
They quite a nice van with plenty of leeway, weight wise with your ute.
There are fancier and pricier on market. also heavier.
Mine UNDER 2 ton loaded.
Perfect for my 2010 D-Max.
Roadstar. Regal etc. better quality. but heavier, and pricier.
Depeneds on your wallet.
