The best sierra is the 1.3 lwb. I used mine as a daily for over 3 years and about 105,000k. running just 215/75r15's it would chug along happy as larry every day and then take the trashing in teh bush. the tyres were bfg muddies and after 105,000k's they were not even half worn

if it had airlockers and i pissed of the load helpers in the rear it would of driven better offroad but it was good with 800kg of shit on the back of it as it regularly carried far to much shit in the back of it... and the other thing thats lwb rock with is they have more room for shagging in the back even with a boot load of camping gear (as in you get to a camp site and its pissing down rain and your in the mood to get the nooky on but putting a tent/swag up would be a mood killer then you can get real creative in the back of a lwb

)
