Just picked up new prado with the new 2.8 litre engine. less than impressed at this point. The old 3.0l 'felt' like it had more pull. May also have something to do with the 6 speed auto. Just doesn't feel as luggy as the previous engine with the van on back. Any one else got any impressions. Thought for sure they would have gone a bigger diesel at least.
.... Just gone past 4000 k. Fuel economy pretty good, averaging 8.9 l / 100 km. Most trips > 75 km. This is my 4th Prado and this one still feels gutless compared to those previous, despite Toyotas claims of more power and torque. Must be hidden in there somewhere. Jury is still out.
