Who's got a new rodeo diesel? do they go good?
Those who choose to drive in the mud do so because they can't drive the rocks.

hey dude we have a 4cyl turbo diesel one at work, it hauls ass i must say. we tow 800 kgs plus on a trailer and tray so yeah about 300km per tank so kinda thrusty but good for that weight i guess. the only thing is we were having some turbo problems and over heating problems when we got up to 120km but that was when it was 10000km over due for a service so not to shabby. work doesnt get things booked in so things get abused and wrecked so afterall that we got it fixed and tis good as gold.
WHAT!?...WHAT!?...oh no no its not fast at all, just loud!!!

Mine isn't the newest but it seems to go pretty well. I get excellent fuel consumption at between 7.5L/100kms and 10L/100kms and I have put 1400kgs on the tray and she hauls that with no dramas although a bit light on the steering it didnt have any power problems pulling that along.
