Its quite entertaining watching half a dozen grown men try and unbog a landcruiser ute with at least a tonne of logs on the tray. When they have a truck with hoist right beside it. Why they didnt unload the truck I dont know....

Fortunately they didnt see that I have a winch. No way I would have wanted to have them want me to use it in that disaster. When I got home, the neighbour said they were already bogged for 3 hours, almost 2.5 hours later and they just left... And they handle chainsaws...

Well not today but a week or two ago at the service station I saw someone else use the fuel cap to hold the trigger on the fuel pump, when you need to put 150+ litres of diesel in and the pump handle doesnt have a locking pin this sure beats holding the damned thing all day waiting for it to fill.

Don't dare do this at the Woolies Caltex in Kalgoorlie, the attendent will run out from his booth and shut your pump down and tell you to pay for what you have and then to leave as he will not let you finish the job. And don't try to explain that the auto-cut off will still function as he doesn't believe you.

Hahaha that's hilarious. Bushbasher You should thank him on bended knee, he could have very well saved your life from a firey explosion of fuel, Prado and body parts.

Happened to me in Woolies/Caltex Broken Hill. Stuck the fuel cap in the trigger and proceed to wash my windows. Console operator turned off the pump and screamed over the PA not to do it.

It's ok, I caught him driving whilst disqualified. Some may call it karma.

That's what scares me about key in pocket. We have laundered a heap of normal keys!

No the keyless is brilliant, one of the favourite parts of the 150.

I guess I have to say I am impressed that you can remove the metal 'key' and leave the electronic box in the car safely locked away. With the kayaking we do it was a pain the keep the smart keys in watertight bags and tie them in or on the kayak somewhere. This way just removed the metal bit and lock the now inactive electric bit inside. Key on rope around neck and no problem if it gets wet. That is definitely an improvement. Haven't driven the 150 enough to have a favourite bit, just 120km on the clock.
