First camping and offroad trip away from home since the new engine and drive line went in. Definitely learnt along the trip to use 2nd a lot more now the Prado is a 5spd vs the old 4spd and pushed it harder than I would have liked (aiming to reduce redline situations) but we managed to get home under our own steam with no breakages. Popped 2 x tyres off the bead after finding our stauno deflators were set closer to 15psi and not 18-20. Looking forward to more technical SLOW and controlled driving on the next few dry trips around SEQ and surrounds. A lot of winching left out of this video of short cuts...
The Prado is on ~3" lift and 33" muddies twin locked with high stall converter in the auto with all the extra fruit for touring/medium offroad work.
