Hi All, long time reader first time poster. I'm about to win a contract to maintain road side signage. It will consist of a lot of driving and installing signs around the roads and pulling down signs.
The signs will only be small ones. ive got a GQ but need a work ute for this kind of work (carrying concrete, old poles and fixings, jackhammer, general tools, etc). I'd hate to say this but I'm leaning towards a 2wd hilux or something else for fuel economy, etc. Just wondering if anyone knows a Patrol model, preferably ute or maybe wagon that would be suitable for long driving all day, reliable but most importantly economical. Fuel cost will be a big thing for me so I'm just not sure a Patrol would be suitable.
Trying to stay loyal though. haha. Thanks for any comments.:)
