Ok new to the forum. I used to have a Nissan patrol, one of the early GU,s.
Moved away from Patrols, looking to come back.
I can convince myself to buy one just on the smooth drive and V8 power.
However I cannot find out much about their off road ability and suitability for outback touring.
I have heard of the departure angle and rear bumper issue, sagging if you add a bull bar and the lack of heavy duty springs.
I wonder about Premium unleaded availability in the back of beyond.
All of these concerns have been pointed out by non owners I might add, so what are the facts ? help get me across the line.
I like touring the Vic high country, and outback tracks, no kids to worry about just me and the boss.
Any advice gladly accepted.
Cheers
Tony
