Hi CLC50,
One more for us, one less for THEM. Hmm ;))
It's not really that dark over here.
Just a reminder to change your rig profile.
You've bought an 80, Good move. :))

I think quite the opposite. Instead of moving to the dark side, I think you have seen the light!
Halleluiah!!!!!!

First things first. Stick a turbo on it and match up exhaust and you will see just how well it goes. Next oil change use CLM flushing concentrate, actually before the turbo fittment, and you'll be even happier. Ours goes just so well even at 210000 kms.

Sigh! and for the first time in 20 years we don't own a Toyota! Although I think the truck my son drives may well still be registered under my name!
