Thanks Fatman,
I thought I might have upset someone.
It wasn't a fair comparison really as the two types of vehicle are worlds apart. The Hilux I drove were the 2.4 and 2.8 early models, dating back to the late '80's - early '90's vintage and were woeful. Then again I can't carry 1/2 tonne in the back of the pug. Horses for courses.
Also, at the time I was used to driving a modern petrol 4WD with a big donk.

Cheers
