Which model would be the best to buy 3.0Ltr Diesel or the 3.0Ltr Turbo Diesel?
Reliability wise. Do the Turbos use more juice?

The turbo one will use less fuel. My brother gets 10km/L on 33s

3.0D - Good. 3.0TD - Heaps better.
2000 SR-5 turbo diesel, dual airlockers, bit of a lift, some 15x8 sunnies, 32" bighorns, a few spotties, and a wireless, and a kiddie seat in the back.

If you can afford it buy the TD. Much better engine. And much better power and economy. I have been loocking for a TD Dual cab of around the same vintage for about 2 months now. But havent been ablt to find one for the right money. I ended up settling on a 2004 3.4l V6 SR5 the other day that i just couldn't refuse for the price at Auction. I prob wont keep it long though. If i find the right TD one i will either trade this one or sell it.
