They had Rangers at the coal mine I work at as well. They were shocking. Couldn’t get them to engage 4WD, had transmission issues. Hiluxes and Landcruisers are there now and they don’t seem to have as many issues. However those light 4WD like Rangers and Hiluxes really should never enter a mine site, they are only really road cars.
Landcruisers seem to get the rear brake lines ripped off regularly. They also are hopelessly underpowered when you start towing lighting plants around.
The absolute biggest pieces of crap are the Iveco 4WD buses on site now. Do not ever buy one of those!
