Yah I've been surprised that you don't see many on the road considering they've been out for just under a year.
There are a few up my way in the Adelaide Hills but what usually happens is that people see new models getting around and then become interested (advertising doesn't hit everyone.)
Let me know how it goes.
The car drives completely different to the Tarago (more like a truck where the Tarago was quite smooth.)
In saying that the Fortuner obviously feels very solid and seems to handle well on the road without being too noisy.
I just got back from Melbourne where I got just under 8.5 liters per 100 kays which will only get better as I get more KM into her.
Seems to be more and more people from SA getting on-board. With the nicer weather approaching might be time soon to organise an SA meet and greet. Now that would be cool.
Not looking so shiny at the moment! Nothing worse than rain for 1 day and then nice weather for the next week. Don't buy a black car (pain in da *****)
What colour is your TRD?? Will have to keep an eye out myself! I've got a silver TRD. Prety much sits in the garage at the moment while i try and sell my other car which is a silver 96 MR2 Bathurst edition. Been using the MR2 as my daily while i advertise it. Where in Adelaide you from? Im in Paralowie and work in Findon. I am originally from the northern suburbs (Windsor Gardens) but now live in the Adelaide Hills.
You don't see any of them Odyssey's done up here in Adelaide. I reckon they look pretty good but not as nice as a nice Tarago. Many TRD's getting round in Brissie (if that's where your from)?
I dont understand your reply. Dont like them rims on a Tarago? NAhh, maybe he's surprised that you got those rims? ANd that they suit it well? Cheers jeffbro!
Thanks for your kind words Andrew. The Viking is a top guy! Only wished I lived up in Brissie as it seems it's where the majority of the modding Toyota crowd live! ;-0
Unfortunately It won't be for a while as I am going through the process of building a house that has been a pain in da a$$ to date. Might go the exhaust first then the suspension. Cheers :-)
