But it may be a little too new for a moulded carpet to be available. And why do you want carpet? The vinyl is 1000% easier to clean.

Thanks
Yeah I've heard of them I agree I dont know if they will be available yet. I want carpet as it wont be a work vehicle and i want some of the comforts of a puerly leisure vehicle without paying the ST (holdens top colorado)price, all up it's costing me $36000 instead of about $51000

Have to agree HuggB
after having vinyl in our Toyota Hilux, would never go back to carpet. Especially as we 4x4 on the beach and bush bash, nothing like getting the brush out and give the ute a good sweep otherwise you've got to lug the vacuum cleaner out to painfull.

Vinyl

I figured that was the case
did you go the diesel or petrol? The diesel is really good, for my 2wd tray back I get 12km/L, or 8L/100km.
we've got a rodeo and a colorado at work - there isn't really a great deal of difference to be honest. just bodywork is slightly altered - interior wise you would be struggling to differentiate them.

Diesel
I got the 4x4 crew cab the official figures are 8.4L per 100k's which is better than my rodeo 4x4 diesel I can get over 11k's per litre taking it easy with that one but on avrage 10.5 the petrol is about 12.5L per 100k's
