All bias aside...

Its not the best outcome is it I'd still rather that then a ute with a repaired chassis...., however There is an upside, I can correct a few mistakes I made. I.e get the auto, get a canopy not a hard cover, possibly a different bulbar etc etc

This offer for the Colarado has to be close in value to the Nissan D40 ST (5* safety rating too) $38,990 drive away.

I got my choice right first time, the only mistakes I made was in locating the dual battery set up, but I have since rectified that, everything else I took my time with and managed to get right where I wanted it. I find it does pay to do a trip or two before finalising exactly how you want things set up, I just took the easy path with the location of the second battery the first time because time was limited, but the second time I planned everything based on previous trips and how I packed things.
