    • @realneilsadventures
      @realneilsadventures Месяц назад

      Ground clearance was a little better in the Surf, there is some low hanging suspension swing arms on the Fortuner the Surf didn't have. That must make the on the road ride better. Cost of maintenance was getting up there on the Surf. The traction control is great, rear diff lock too. The cameras help both off road and car parks etc. Active cruise control and the extra safety features plus the automatic make the Fortuner a must for me with it being my daily driver. Sorted the front plastic with the bull bar as I wanted a winch. Don't know about the rear plastic yet, I have pop it out on one side 3 times now.

    What an awesome track!! That's somewhere I would take the wife to introduce her to 4WDing. There are a few challenging bits that gradually get harder-mostly just water and creek banks-but no MASSIVE boulders and "no edges" (she's not scared of heights - just edges), fairly flat track-yet still enough for her to appreciate the location and think her car would never get us there, perfect for her to the appreciate investment I/we have put into our truck. That's the perfect track to break the wife in! Awesome video - thank you!!

    • @realneilsadventures
      @realneilsadventures 2 месяца назад

      The first time I went though there was though their land and Malcolm showed us around, the history and maps etc. This was a last-minute thing finding the bridge was easy, I would need an address for the farm and I wanted to drive both ways though the tunnels so I just stayed on the DOC track. Next time I will see Robyn and Malcolm and get the map and explore the aera more and check out the tunnels you can walk in.
