I just read a story in our local newspaper.

Didn't believe a word of it.

Do you want me to send you a copy?

LOL

Like everything written in any Australian 4wd rag it would be a load of crap, no doubt biased towards whoever was spending the most on advertising at the time.

I agree with you 100 percent.

The number of times they have an article endorsing a product alongside an ad for that product is not coincidental.
Life's great and it just keeps getting better

It was about a 3.0L Ti Patrol versus a 100 Series VX TD cruiser in the wild.

The cruiser won.
