    Ti in the Garage

    Picked the new Ti up today , I drove it straight to the weighbridge , 2 of us and a full tank of juice
    Front axel = 1540 , rear = 1460 for a total smack on 3000kg , no surprise its heavy that leaves only 500kg if I want to remain legal , it's not going to be easy that's for sure .
    We took it for a 180k drive , very quite, nice ride and lots of power compared to the Dmax but then it's a completely different vehicle .
    Now to workout how to use all the stuff on the dash , read the manual is probably a good place to start
    I usually just push buttons and work it out , manual is a last resort

    Congrats! What colour?

    And the buttons on the to right above the speedo - on the binnacle itself - will be your friend for most of it...

    I removed the 3rd row seats today , now to look into how I can fit the back out , I would like to fit a false floor and maybe a battery. The 2 seats were about 38kg

    Nice one mate, hopefully I'll see it around.
    We are doing a trip to Licola in August and staying at the lions village there. Would be good to have a Y62 there with us for something different.
