What is the best Patrol on the market?
G'day , I have a 1998 GU 4.5L Patrol on Petrol and Gas, I have been doing a bit of work to it. (sub tank upgrade, lift, draws, fridge and a roof rack with all the bells and whistles. Its a great 4wd but I am looking a buying something with better fuel consumption and even better offroad capability.
I would appriciate all of your opinions

I agree too and with the money you have saved from buying a GQ you can put another 10k in to the GQ to create a nice little weapon!

SUCH IS LIFE
I think a 3.0 Common Rail Patrol is the answer you're looking for here. I wouldn't touch those GQ's with a bargepole..

I also have a 98 GU 4.5L
Gas Fuel consumption is 18 Litres per 100 k's
Lets do some sums
Say 20 Litres Gas per 100 K's @ 65c = $13
Say 10 Litres Diesel per 100 K's @ $1.50 = $15
