surf & pajero kerb weights

[Wheelrepairit]

Hi everyone,need your help in an argument im having.

I have 2 surfs,a 2.4 and a 3.0

My friend has just brought a 2.8 lwb pajero on a 93 plate

Now we both tow a bit and on asking him why he not get a surf as he loves mine its because they are far too light to tow,according to him.Pajeros are a lot heavier.

So does anyone know the weight of a 3.0 93 surf and a 2.8 93 pajero.

Ill agree and say i think the mitsi will be a bit heavier,but i cant see it being much.

My 95 V6 4Runner was 2000kg exactly my latest 3rd Gen Surf is 1800kg however I have no idea of the weight of a Paj although even when obeying the 85% rule you are still talking aboug a bl!!dy big caravan.

2040KGs for a '94 according to here

according to the same site, 2.4td 4runner is 1750kg, so pajero's must be fatter, well they look all bloated and fat to me anyway.

the paj weight must include the driver....

I got different weights for Surfs everywhere I looked! But here's Toyota's own figures as scanned from the 1993 4Runner brochure.

The weight for the autobox version will slightly different to the manual transmission I don't know if it's more or less?

The best way to settle the 'best tow car' argument is to chain them both back-to-back and see which car can pull the other along backwards!!!

Don't blame me if you break anything though.
