YD25 D40 Navara/R51 Pathfinder VS Duratorq PJ Ranger for towing

I've got a nice lump sum coming in from my tax return next month and am thinking about buying my first 4WD for towing my other cars with. There's an ample supply of two models out there that meet my needs (3T towing capacity) that are both around my sub 10K budget (ballpark is 7-8K). D40 Navaras (plus a few R51 Pathfinders) with the YD25, and PJ Rangers with the Duratorq.

Previously I asked about the Ranger but the Navaras and Pathfinders are also looking really good. I am still considering other options (Amarok, X5s, Ford Territorys, etc) but those all have a slightly lower towing capacity so I'm leading towards these two options.

I'm aware that in both models the manuals have dual mass flywheels and clutches that really should be upgraded before towing.

Thinking of buying a diesel PJ Ranger for towing cars with. Any one own one and care to share their experiences?

Looking at a 2010 manual XLT with 239K on it. Is rated to 3T and I need a tow vehicle for moving cars around. Anyone have experience owning one and using it to haul big loads? I have read mixed reviews on its ability to haul.

Teams Meeting Notes disabled in calendar despite Loop enabled in Tenancy

Following along the docs for enabling Loop integrations: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/loop/loop-admin-configuration?view=o365-worldwide

Despite doing everything, users still can't access the Teams meeting notes when opening a meeting in the Teams calendar due to policy errors.

Using the SPOTenant settings in the PowerShell SharePoint shell we have set the IsLoopEnabled and IsCollabMeetingNotesFluidEnabled parameters to $True about a week ago. Verified as active as of this morning. And on top of that all of the Office Apps policies have also been enabled in a new supplemental policy in the Office admin centre. Which shouldn't affect the Teams calendar but regardless they've been set.

Despite all this, the feature we've been trying to get working, accessing these meeting notes in the Teams calendar, still does not work.

Anyone experienced this?

Good yarn with a boaty

So visiting me old man up in Queensland. He takes me to see his boat I and got chatting to the owner of this funny name. Apparently he went to register the first boat and realised he'd spelled "salad" wrong because he'd done the forms the night before while drinking. Too late to change it, he decide to just stick with it. Thus the name stuck and remained so for his next boat and now this third one.
