The speed limit you see on a sign is not a target that you must drive at. It is the maximum speed that you are allowed to reach in perfect conditions! And those perfect conditions may not be towing a big heavy van behind a lighter tug.
Spot on Waren and Pat. and not only on dirt roads. If we went back to when we taught people to look through the windscreen and drive every road on its merits, and to the prevailing conditions instead of a number on a singe, we would lose a lot less lives on our roads. Landy
Given the vehicle you are driving and the size of the van you are towing, driving at the speed limit would almost be an impossibility!!! Ha HA Dont get me wrong I love landies. Look what I drive!!
Hey Walter With a Manufacturers tow rating of 4 ton, a payload of 1500 kg, a GCM of 7000 kg and a rear axle rating of 2200 kg, I would be surprised if many dual cab utes on this forum could match it as a tug. you should also not under estimate the 5 cylinder motor with a couple of tweaks, but being a landy man I would imagine you already know that, Its certainly not the tug that limits my speed. Well not on dirt or minor roads anyway.
