Bloody Kia 2900 is playing up, did an injector not long ago and now I'm getting low pressure in the fuel rail so while i'm figuring out what is wrong I am putting some thought in to a replacement vehicle.

I would prefer a 3 seater manual for the increased tray size. Needs to be 4x4. Probably willing to spend max 20-25k.
Last time I looked in to this I couldn't find a decent 3 seater so went with the kia light truck option. Needing 4x4 wasn't an issue than.

Anyone know of a 3 seater 4x4?

4x4 light trucks start to cost a lot more money from what I have seen.

I may have to go for a 4 door ute as there are so many around in 4x4.

I'm thinking of ditching common rail diesel and going back to petrol. The common rails just can't handle bad diesel or water in the diesel. High pressure fuel pumps and injectors cost big bucks to replace as do turbos.

Any ideas? How do people find carrying heavy loads e.g. firewood on dual cabs. Seems to me most of the load is behind the rear axle wheras at least with the single cabs you can position most of the weight forward of the rear axle. This is a concern for me. I want the front wheels on the road.

Had a quick look at a dodge RAM until I found out they start at 70k.
