G'day lads and ladettes, just a quick intro. I pick up my new GUIII in a few days and yes i k ow about nads too. I've done a little homework with these. I've come across from the Toyota side of the fence as I reckon the grass is greener. I'm in the process of selling my 4runner and because I've always wanted the patrol, seemed like a fantastic idea.

Anyway, I'm a soldier. Actually a defence driver trainer/ assessor and that involves cross country, difficult terrain and maintenance. I'm not a mechanic but extremely mechanically minded and do all my own servicing and mods. Although I'm not a good welder.

I'm looking forward to the difference my new trol will bring and the fact it's my first full size 4wd. Oh and if anyone asks, I'm 43 and married with kids who after almost 16yrs I've finally been able to talk into going camping..

See you on the tracks!

Hi Dave, welcome aboard.

Makes yourself at home and feel free to share your adventures and stories.

It is good you are mechanically minded as Patrols can be expensive to look after if you have to pay someone else to do it.

 

Enjoy

 

Cheers

Been looking after mine, my kids,ages and parents cars for years. Maybe I should have gone and finished that apprenticeship instead of bumming around. Thanks for the welcome..

Maybe you should, but hey now you can shoot things too.

 

Anyway, have a fun with Patrol.

 

Cheers

G'day Dave, welcome to the forum!

 

A 4Runner huh ... I know a bloke who has one of those.  Been into the brindies with him a few times.  But he wasn't that good a driver.  Maybe you know him :-)

Yeah thanks Dave, lol. Better now I have my trol!

Thanks for the welcome all

Welcome Dave.

Glad to see you have bought the gu with open eyes.

Once NADS are done I think they are a very capable car.

Anyway heaps of info here so jump in and enjoy.

Cheers.
