The newer landcruisers DO rot quicker. Doesn't matter how much underseal you put on the outside. They rot from inside too... I personally have had and seen older landcruisers that haven't had as much rot as new ones. They're using crap steel for the chassis now. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Aussie Whip 4,323 Posted Monday at 21:55 Report Share Posted Monday at 21:55 I've got a 2011 Hilux single cab turbo diesel 4wd and a petrol 99 Nissan Pathfinder 4wd and have had them many years without any problems. The Nissan is built like a tank and probably uses as much fuel as one, lol but I bought it for the mrs after a bad smash in her Suzuki. I think Suzuki's are good driving around a farm but not safe on the highway. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gypsydog94 4,776 Posted Monday at 22:05 Report Share Posted Monday at 22:05 I got a 2007 x trail. Set of insa turbo all terrain tyres and does me for work and hunting following hounds. Haven’t beaten it yet but like to think I know its limitations. Just watch for rust. Plenty of power cruise control heated seats. Decent mpg 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Landcruisers are still no 1 for right out bush over here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
