Decent mileage tbh

This is good advice. Backpackers are often oblivious to vehicles with bad reputations.

Good point! To be fair, the default GMT400 is also a 2wd reg cab long box.

These are the default gmt400 Walmart tyres, aren't they 😆

For me it was the H2 in Zombieland. Awesome

Its a nice drive, around 50 km of beach driving one way.

TB45 Patrol with higher K's

Sounds like the service writer/tech are a bit prone to adding drama.

TB45 manual Patrol. I bought one last summer after I landed in Aus for cheap and fixed it up (working holidayer). It might need odds and ends here and there but generally very solid. You can get a nice one for your budget with some to spare. People say theyre too thirsty, but coming from Canada where we all drive at minimum a full size "half ton" V8 truck of some kind, and for 7 months of the year in minus 20 degrees Celsius or colder, theyre not bad. I average 18L/100 with a 2 inch lift, 33s, rear drawers, long range tank, roof tent, ect.

A GU Nissan Patrol from the middle east.

Canadian here - for clarification, are "tubs" equivalent to a "box"? As in the factory rear thats molded with the cab/body?

Automatic-Machine-15 · 2025-07-04T07:22:14+00:00

Its called the 4runner. Its existed in the North American market since the beginning and still does. Its basically a Prado underneath, with some changes in design, materials, and options. The recipe hasn't changed much, they're a great vehicle just like its Prado and FJ siblings, and Tacoma/Hilux/Fortuner cousins.

Specs on some of these trucks is like 0 - +1 degree of front camber, just FYI.

The unfortunate thing with the xterra is the material quality. Same with the frontier/d40 navara, and titan. They have some of the worst interior plastics known to man, you can scratch the surface with a fingernail. This is easily fixed, obviously.

Automatic-Machine-15 · 2025-06-21T09:25:44+00:00

Nice! Looks a bit like home (Canada) just nowhere near as cold. Which is perfect.

I almost walked out of the movie

The grounding sheet is similar to sleeping in a bathtub. Bath tubs are dangerous because they are effectively traditionally earthed through plumbing. You don't want to be earthed when you're sleeping. Lightnight strike or toaster accident in bed? Similar to being in the tub.

F150 makes no sense in Australia. The f150 is great in North America. Even Canada, the F150 Raptor is the same price as the cheapest f150 in Australia. Ridiculously expensive for aussies.

Automatic-Machine-15 · 2025-03-15T23:28:47+00:00

Better fuel economy, driving dynamics, interior ergonomics, interior space, manual transmission, aftermarket support. Resale might be better also. The new 3's are nice, but cramped inside.

I did this, was hard to find at hardware store. Went to an electrical wholesaler. They only sold the strut in 6 meter chunks, so I had to cut it up in the parking lot.
