Hi Doug,

Its a GX TRD V8 TTD Land Cruiser with 4into two pipe work and chip. Its very nice to tow with. the fuel  consumption is fantastic. With 2000kg boat out the back you forget that its behind you. Going to WA last year we averaged 17.65lt return to Sydney on cruise at 102kmph all the way.

Best tug I have ever owned and will be keeping it right through our retirement.smile

Jim

 makes it easier to follow the fog line AK

and easier to line up the van with a slab.

bit hard to see when to overtake though I would expect.
