Re: Ford Maverick ?

Yes they optioned some Nissan Patrols with the 3.0 litre engine but most of the Patrols sold in Australia had the 4.2 litre petrol or diesel engines.
It was called the "RB30".
The "RB30" was quite a few thousands of dollars cheaper to buy than the other larger engined models.
It was never a popular option, as the 3.0 litre Skyline engine was small & did not make
much torque at low revs. (It needed quite a few revs to make any power.)
It was not much good for moving a large heavy vehicle, fully loaded with 8 passengers, especially towing anything heavy.
They were only just okay when they were empty & not towing.
