Land Cruiser

Here is the new Tug for our wanderings. The latest model Toyota Land Cruiser GXL,with a few extras to be fitted. Soon we will have a bullbar, towbar, snorkle, electric brake controller and tinted windows at the front. Already had the leather seats installed.
It has a 4.2 litre twin turbo V8 diesel, 6 speed auto gearbox and should be able to pull the off road caravan anywhere we want to take it. Tiffany anf Hannah have already given it their seal of approval and Kathy loves it.
We have to do about 1000 to 1500 km before we can tow with it, so it is getting the run around to clock up the kilo metres.
As soon as we get the Toyota fully optioned we will be out to the Barossa Valley to make sure everything tows OK and then we will be ready for bigger journeys. Planning for a visit to Canberra and Victoria in February as the first real run with the new rig.
