G'day all,

Today I picked up my first Patrol. She is nothing fancy, but should be suitable for my needs - 1994 DX TD42, 371000km. Purchased from a dealer in Alice Springs for $6500.

I will post more details in the Members Ride section.

The main reason I liked this vehicle in that price range was the reliability factor, and the opportunity to learn on a relatively simple engine. Although I have some good experience driving 4WD vehicles, I am a mechanical noob.

I aim to do basic service on this truck and get a feel for it. Maybe over time I can perform more complex tasks.

Looking forward to hanging out a bit here.

Cheers,
DQ
