If it is anything like my soon to be replaced 2008 auto Navara which is fitted with a DPF, oil changes will mean fully synthetic oil.........I used to always buy my Shell Helix fully synthetic when Repco had their specials. Dealers tend to charge like the proverbial wounded bull for these oils...eg Nissan in Canberra charged me $141 for oil back in 2008.
PS - pick up my new SR5 tomorrow.

Those rims must be at least 19inch? Maybe even 20's. Look at the rubber bands wrapped around them.

I was referring to the 1's in the picture.. Are yours the same pattern or same wheel? They look pretty big.

Wow SB very nice. I'm guessing you got them fitted by dealer!
Maybe the new Hilux is wearing a lower profile tyre in the pic and making the rim look bigger.

dunno but it kind of looks like on the new hilux the offset has changed compared to this picture, might just be the angle.
