Hahaha absolute bullshit. My husband bullied me into buying a Toyota troopie (70 series) mid-pandemic (his impulse lockdown purchase, I refused, I was wrong, it’s amazing). And after driving it 2 years now in a completely ridiculously non-fuel efficient manner, I’d say we get about 25 mpg in the city and much better out bush. Which still beats the pants off anything similar.
The reason they’re not sold in the US (we obviously don’t live there), as I understand it, is some silly 50 year old protectionist law that’s never been revoked, despite no American company making anything like the amazingness of this vehicle. Troopy forever!
