  • Hi There, I bought a 2010 GXL D4D Auto just before Christmas. Having a brother who has a 120 GXL so it was a pretty easy choice. I'm in Melbourne and am looking forward to getting out and about in the Prado after a long time in less capable cars. Already been up to the high country around Mt Stirling and a few other spots too.

    Accessories: TJM bar and protection, Stedi LED bar, Rhino tray. Simples.

    I just wanted to say that having lurked for a while, I'm impressed with the information sharing on the forum - it's great - thanks to all who contribute!

    Cheers,
    Peter

    • Hi Guys and Gals

      Been a member for a while, first post.

      Here is a quick run down of my Prado.

      Model: GXL turbo diesel (Auto)
      Year: 2016
      Colour: Graphite
      Accessories: So far I have Tuff rims, with BFG K02's, pioneer flat rack, TJM bulbar, 9.5t Winch, under body protection, TJM side Rails, snorkel, light force 22" double light bar and factory tow bar.
      Wishlist: New GME 3550s on its way, dual battery and solar kit, additional fuel filters and a ton of wiring needed.

      I have a GMC camper Trailer just basic, but added a 12v and 240v electrical system. Just basic. Planning on upgrading to a dot 6 trailer soon.

      Well that's my first 5c, hope to hear and see plenty more.

        • Thank you Ian

          I look forward to getting some pics up and reading about everyone's mods etc that are done to their rigs.

          And getting out there and enjoying the drive. That and learning how to 4x4 with the auto. All my other 4 by's were manual.

          Cheers

                • Hi and introduction

                  Hi chaps.

                  Long time lurker, and now a member of the 120 club. I pick up my 2006 Tx spec 120 series with 4.0L petrol power plant, next weekend.

                  I live in the Eastern Island, LOTR country, the suburbs of the shaky city - Christchurch, New Zealand.
                  Hunting and fishing is my hobby. I work in a large engineering firm making ship propulsion units.

                  here is my truck, stock as yet unmodified.
                  First purchase is a private rego plate.
                  Second purchase will be a set of MCC rear drawers (any one got experience with those). Previously I ran a 97 surf diesel 1KZTE and made my own drawers as a copy of the Drifta's.
                  Then it will prob be a new set of spotlights. I'm thinking Hella Rallye FF4000.

                  Most of my driving is daily commute, plus towing my ATV to the stations I hunt on. So a small amount of gravel roads but not real 4x4 stuff.
                  And going camping or fishing, which in NZ is tar seal or gravel roads.

                  Thanks for a great forum

                        • Ha Pradopoint,
                          Firstly have to thank this site for giving me the heads up on the warranty dash replacement for my 120.
                          2006 Prado Grande v6 Auto 120,000km
                          We have had the car 8 years and had never been off road as my wife used it to run the kids around. We thought about selling it, but decided against it and now after it's maiden Fraser trip at Christmas it's staying. Back to Fraser this Easter and Cape York next June/July, so begins turning a completely stock 120 Grande into our Tourer. First on the list for this Fraser trip was a Awning ,cargo barrier and draws I built myself from info from this site.
                          Cheers Pradopoint
                          Paul
