    Please clarify this comment Ben? We might have to review any possible visa applications on the grounds of racial taunts/comments? :lol: :lol:

    Not many of the Yanks wheel with a wheel on the roof rack. To much of a tip over hazard. I think it it's more of an Aussie thing anyway.

    BTW I stole the quote from LCOOL from someone who will remain nameless. :lol:

      Since a lot of the travel in OZ is very remote it is advisable to carry two spares and invariabley one of these ends up on the roof rack.

        And that may or maynot be a full tyre/rim up there.
        Some people choose to just cary one spare wheel with a spare tyre just incase.

          OK. :lol: I more meant just somewhere to put them for delivery. Not to do a trip with 5 wheels on the roof.

              Mates,

              I have been e-mailing everyone at Toyota I know the OZFJ question....


              Mr. A********,

              I have been part of a discussion on Prado Point about the FJ Cruiser coming to Australia. Have you heard anything about this? The last I heard was that Toyota had no intentions of producing the FJ Cruiser as a left hand drive.

              Please let me know. Thanks again for the DVD's.

              Well.... I got a response.....

              Benjamin:

              I'm having Australia look into this. . .
              I will post when he gets back to me.

                Cool..

                And they called you Benjamin. Sounds like your in trouble...

                I think it would be great publicity for them. Hope they see it that way.

                Um does that mean that Toyota Australia will be seeing this????

                Hello mister Toyota San.

                Keep us informed Ben.
