    Guys with the same engine in Pajero's report between 12-14l/100 All depends on how heavy the right hoof is though Nice truck the Triton.

    Hey Luskin, I have an old Hilux and am thinking about either what you have just bought or another Hilux. I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on it. My trouble is I tow a seafarer which weighs a bit more than the hornet

    I have the 04 model turbo Triton and tow a 4.8m Fisher platey with it. It eats it. I towed the rig to Proserpine and back without a problem. My mate alway remarks how much power it has.

    Mate we have a 2005 GLS 2.8 turbo, we tow a 5.2m Stabicraft or a Jayco Outback Swan van (1000kg) it tows them without a problem. Liked it so much just got a 2006 GLX single cab (also 2.8 turbo). Had 5 Hiluxes before that but could no longer justify the "Toyota Premium Price".

    Our GLS travelled 86000km in first 12 months and didnt miss a beat. Biggest test was South Coast NSW to Karumba FNQ towing the van fully laden - didnt disappoint!
