Thanks guys!!!

Unfortunately I will only see and receive my Patrol end of August :rolleyes:

I just came back from a 2 week trip to Madagascar and was really surprised about the Land Cruiser vs. Patrol ratio. All in all I may have seen 5 x 70series Land Cruiser but 50+ Patrols!!! Would be interesting to know how nissans does different there - or it might be the Nissan/Renault partnership...

Hi,

At least now I see that I wont be able to use my hi-lift Jack wheel buddy on those steel rims. :rolleyes:

Does anybody know if the rear tow point (Pic1) will survive kinetic revoceries? or better upgrade to somithing like that Heavy Duty Rear Tow Point
