F50 is the same to look at as a F20 or Toyota Blizzard but has a 2.5 diesel donk and 4 speed tranny. F70 is a Rocky.
If you plan off road driving then any diesel is a better option than a petrol IMO. In both my daihatsus I was able to put it in 1st (high range not low range) and just realease the cluthch and idle up the steepest hill in baulkham hills without touching the accelerator. I proved it ot a mate who owned a landcruiser and he couldent believe it. In low range it would have been able to do it with a trailer. My point about the diesel is that often when you are in a hairy situation being able to creep along is much better than having to rev the engine and risk spinning the wheels.
