Buying my least favourite 4WD - what changed my mind

Has Graham made a HUGE mistake?

When it comes to 4WDs, everyone has an opinion. But if there’s one vehicle that’s the most wanted, most hyped, most modified, and most dreamt-about in Australia - it’s the 79 Series LandCruiser… and Graham’s just bought one! 😱

This is a second-hand 2022 GXL LandCruiser with 35,000 km on the clock. It’s completely stock, just as it left the showroom… and yes, it’s Sandy Taupe.

Now, as a die-hard Nissan guy, Graham’s first impression of the 79? It’s the single worst value-for-money 4WD on the market. 💰 But many of you strongly disagree.

So, he’s putting it to the test. This will be Graham’s new vehicle for what’s shaping up to be the biggest year in OffGrid yet! 🔥
