I like my disco's manners going down hill so I wonder about the new defender in similar circumstances
he wouldnt buy a landie over a toyota but all the footage of him driving was in the defender.........
If the landcruiser didn't have diff locks the defender would be heaps better? well if the defender didn't have traction control and the Tojo had locks.............stupid ass comparison
Mmmmm, factory diff locks or traction control, I know which box I'd tick:twisted:
And it ain't TC
Funny thing is Toyota produced one of the best set of factory diff locks and no-one seemed to add them to their specification. They still use the "knob of invincibility" in that video to switch the lockers as they even had in the 80 series:D
My old boy ticked that box on his 79 series RV troopy:)Quote:

no i can buy that, the lockers were an option that could be factory fitted if you wanted them (back in the day when they first started doing it Im not sure about the latest ones) and the series and the counties were still all over them even with the lockers.Quote:

See I think that is the critical point full stop. A lot of people play off the fact that "I'm experienced, I know what I'm doing, I'm wonderful and the vehicle's systems just get in my way". Isn't all about learning how the vehicle works (including its systems)?Quote:
