  • Another one delivered

    Picked up my 2010 GXL D4D this morning. Very happy so far, smooth delivery by the dealer, was presented very nicely until it got rained on.

    Spent about an hour going through everything, pairing my phone, setting up speed dials etc, got a couple of bonus goodies - Picnic backpack, 50% discount meal form a local Thai Restaurant, very small very basic first aid kit.

    Also something I didn't realise at purchase time was that I get an extra 3 years warranty on top of Toyota warranty (total 6 years) as long as I go to this dealer for all my scheduled services and don't miss any. Not sure if this is something that all dealers are offering or not? I was going to go to this dealer anyway as I have the capped servicing costs for the first 6.

    Already fitted all three kids seats, deep rubber mats (on top of Toyota ones). Seems a lot wider than my old car as I don't have to shove the kids car seats together so hard to get the doors to shut

    Plan to get UHF installed ASAP, it was a pull out from my old car, will do this myself. Hayman Reece Towbar is booked for next week and BFG 265/65/17 AT's will be going on as soon as Bob Jane T-Marts fill their back order, again probably in a week or so.

    Bit disappointing that the feet from my old Rhino bars don't fit the rails, they are close but just a slightly different profile, hopefully ARB can supply just new feet.

    Suppose I should start a build up thread....

    Obligatory first pics anyway -

      Thanks - there was a lot of playing with figures to bring it under the luxury car tax and I was trading my old car, so on paper it looked like I got a lot for mine with a big discount, from what I can work out it would be around $59k drive away.

          Very nice, provided Illawara Toyota can get pre-delivery done on time, im due to pick up a Manual D4D GXL in Graphite this afternoon. Fingers crossed!

          Already booked in with ARB for a deluxe bar, however there is a months wait on that. The HID kit is sitting on the kitchen table to get put in at the first opportunity, and the UHF is waiting to be ordered.

          Fun times ahead!

              Hey Dave, I'm putting 2x 55w kits in the Prado headlights. I have done the same thing on my HSV (except i went 35w Low, 55w Hi). The kits I use are from a guy called Gerald @ Gadget Master (http://www.gadgetmster.com.au). Inc LED parkers (nothing worse the yellow parkers and white head lights), it was just over $500 inc postage overnight.

              If you speak/email him, just tell him "Ryan from LS1" sent you and he should look after you. The kits are faultless and i know tons of people using his kits with no problems with radio reception, etc (unlike some cheap other kits ive used that killed all FM reception when running).

              Any other questions let me know, happy to help.
