Hi All,
Firstly, great forum with lots of great examples of what can be done with these vehicles. I am about to purchase a Diesel Auto Altitude and after reading lots of different reviews most being positive, there seems to be a common theme that the 150 series may be a bit underpowered when under load. We will be towing a single axle 16ft Jayco Expanda and our previous vehicle has been a 2004 NP Pajero which predominantly we ran on LPG. The gas usage when towing along with the continued rising cost of LPG was one of the main reasons we are now making the move to diesel.
For those of you that tow, boats, trailers, caravans could you share your thoughts on your towing experience and thoughts when fully loaded on the Prado diesel engines power and ability to tow well.
Really appreciate any real world thoughts, and thanks to those who have helped me get this point in deciding on the Altitude.
Regards,
Andrew
