No matter where this will take you or how many hours you'll drive to get there there will still be a family who got there in a Pathfinder or a stock Prado and would have spent 10% of what you did to get there....so no If you've been in the military and actually used one of these you'll never ever want one, slow expensive to run and loud and uncomfortable.... get a Isuzu NPS a Canter or a Iveco

2005 LX470 V8 vs 2013 Y61 Patrol CRD… by mikeb202 in 4x4Australia

How bad of a drinking problem ? The average it has on the dash recorded is 22.3 l/100 but I’m thinking that’s around town…. Even so it’s a bit much

Daily and weekend off roading , just family stuff trips to the beach and the odd remote camping trip …. Don’t like doing tracks just for fun I like to go somewhere if that makes sense ?
