Had my doubts about an auto 4WD, but after speaking with my bro & seeing his auto Prado on the beach at Inskip Point I was convinced am am now on my 2nd auto Prado & would never go to manual. With an auto you get a lot more time to enjoy the scenery with out all of the work (lots of gear changes on softish sand).

Have to say, behind a 3.0L diesel auto works best. With the Prado auto box it is a dream in the High country when engine braking is what you want.Blue Storm 150 D4D GXL, Toyota Tow Bar, Cheepo floor mats, Tough Dog Springs & Shocks, Colour Coded TJM T13 steel bar, KingOne winch with rope, GME 3440 80 channel uhf.
