    Smile Hi from NSW

    Hi guys,

    New to the forum and proud to say as of last Wednesday im a patrol owner.

    Its been a long 12 month search for an ex telstra rig (which hasnt been flogged) but finally have an 06 4.2 GU ex tesltra patrol....

    looking forward to hearing from you guys and becoming more involved with fellow patrol owners, and thanks to all you ex telstra truck owners who have been posting on this sight, the input you provided made my life so much easier in the process....

    Got some work in front of me in the way of basic mod's so any ex telstra truck owners please feel free to offer me any advise you have. it will be greatly appreciated!

    G'day mate welcome to the forum and glad you could join us.

    Is your truck a ute with a pod?

    Take care out there.

    Hi Rossco,

    sure is mate, its the obieco body..... I have literally spent the last 12 months researching these rigs from speaking to former and current techs and looking at every possible car site! its in pretty reasonable condition apart from the usual wear and tear in the back that would be associated with being a workhorse. its an 06 with 170k on the clock, regular 5000k services and it was a town vehicle (no bullbar/winch) which will be one of the first additions.... im guessing being an 05 you have the rosco's trademate? I dont know if their is much difference apart from the roscos being a bit more pleasing to the eye! mate honestly what can you tell me about yours and other ex telstra owners? please feel free to bombard me with info... ps: sorry if all these msgs clog your system boys
