when you compare a hilux in its own class, therefore a navara there is no competition...
ppl compare patrol's to hilux's so they think they are better lol

Dont mind cruisers, apart from toyota's mistake with the 100 series turbo diesels and V8, the 2 best motors of there line up and they fit gay IFS!!

Yeah but you have to spend more normally to get it in the first place. I like Patrols because there are plenty of them around so there are always heaps of spares available and when I was tossing up between the two I found there was alot more aftermarket custom suspension parts for patrols and thats what i wanted. My GQ with only front locker has driven one hill climb that two dual locked 80 series had to winch out of, both had 4-5inches of lift and 35's too. Just really depends on what your needs for them are and what you were brought up around.

Rather than just posting youtube video's on ridiculous mods on trucks that none of us can afford, we need to have a patrol and cruiser Sunday soon to really settle things I think. pitch similar mods against eachother, mano - e - mano. Put up your dukes!

and we battle to the death!

case closed there... I havent heard of Patrol park, even though the alliteration would make it sound catchier... har har har.
We should, who knows the route or even some of the tracks there? I havent been there since I Was a wee one.
somone with more knowledge of the place should organise something there!

both are good 4wds,its personal preference which one you choose. and it cant be settled once and for all because most of it would be driver ability/experience.a gq and 80series with the same mods,same tyres and everything else are both great vehicles but the driver would be the let down in the final decision.

Plenty of nissan hills around and take a look at what the Perrit's (LMP) race, would it be a patrol possably?
We cant make june, but patrols beat cruisers every time. Look at the comps, domminated by gq/gu.
I would take your money mate, when I drive past your 80 with broken rear axle studs or broken front centre.
21 june is tough tracks at LMP.

yep good fun, I got a few things to do first but I'm up for a cruiser vs patrol run later in the year. Self recovery though, I've done my share of recovering cruisers. I'd even say I'd out drive most 80 drivers in the girls car.
I'd do cruiser, the springs (best park so far), janowen or maybe rover.
