I know of many people with modded vehicles, and dont really know any that when modifying dont do it correctly, thus not having any issues. If you do it correctly and dont be a tight arse, trying to save $10, then you will have no issues. If you get someone who knows what they are doing to do the work, then you also should have no issues. If you do, its their issue, they fix Free..
If you think you need to spend any $ on a Breadbox, or a TD6 to make it more capable than a $100k rangie, good for you. a fool and his money are soon parted.
What I was getting at and presume Martyn was stating, is that you could get a Cruiser or Patrol or several other 4wds on the market that are
well sub $80k, easily as capable as the Rangie stock, and then fit it out for touring or outback travelling and still come in under the rangie price tag.
Start by fitting Rear Storage, Fridge, Communications gear, Roof or dash consoles to fit comms gear, Winch, Bullbar and Rails, spotties, Cargo barrier, Fitted
Water Tank, Roofrack, Long Range Tank etc and still bank $20,000 or more and have a shaggers weekend at a resort for you and the girlfriend.
Just cause its expensive doesnt make it good.
YMMV
