I know what i am asking is crazy so many options so many different classes.
I am looking into buying a vehicle early next year, my problem is i cant make up my mind, here is what i want to do:
Fishing most of the places are easy to access but some do need a 4x4, need enough space for all the gear
Cycling, again most places easy to get in, but need a easy way to transport the bicycle with or without a rack
Towing and Launching a boat, anything from a 15ft to a 24ft boat
Lastly camping \ Overlanding with or without a camping trailer
Options i am looking at:
1: 2014 + Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 3.6L - Love this vehicle, love the terrain response, ride quality, Luxury features, engine power and the sound system
2: Nissan Patrol 4.8L, Yes yes i know fuel is a problem, but damn its so big and beautiful, more than enough space, great off road
3: 2012 + Ford Ranger 3.2, Love the looks, big space, just not sure about reliability or services or off road capabilities
4: Toyota Hilux V6 4.0, I know its a strong vehicle, great off road, but i dont like the interior, they are a bit of a hard drive and not sure about service and maintenance
5: 2010 Prado V6 4.0, I know nothing about this vehicle, its good looking, the interior looks nice, still have to test drive, but how good is it off road? services? Maintenance?
My Budget is about R280k - R320k
What would you recommend or advice you would offer, i like doing my homework and each vehicle is great in their own way, ( Note this will be my daily driver )
I just need enough info to make the best choice
Thanks in advance
