The most important thing is personel & tool transport.

Are the standard Michelin XZL's worth their salt?

Can it really tow the stated 3500 kg's ?

.
David ,do you need a 130?

If your just taking tools and men what about a twin cab 110?

Plenty tree surgeons use them. Handier to manouver too.

I had 40+ K off a set of XZL's, good off road but noisy on road and grip isn't that great.

I've just changed to BFG a/T's in a wider tyre to try and maintain some grip whilst having better road manners.

All landys will tow 3500kg.
