First of all I would like to introduce myself as a newcomer here. I come from Indonesia and am 27 years old as of the time of writing :D

Now this is a bit embarrassing but I don't own a Hilux yet; I'm still planning to get one (the 3.0 D4D would be ideal). Instead, I already own a 2.7 petrol Fortuner (Hilux SW4 for anyone else outside Southeast Asia/Oceania).

Seeing as the two vehicles are basically identical trucks, I hope joining here will help shed some light on my ponderings about what to do to the rig or what to buy.

Here's hoping that I can have a good time here!

PS. sorry for moments of broken English as it's not really my main language.

Haha Brendon, very little. I attended Indonesian langauge class at primary school in Alice Springs and Darwin. Haven't spoken a word of it since. I have no idea what you said above :lol:

Fortuner, I have visited Bali twice. I would love to get out of the tourist district though and see the real Indonesia one day. 8-)

Welcome Fortuner, let us know if and when you get a Hilux. Don't worry if your english isn't up to scratch, no one will complain ;)

Yeah Brendon, I too had Indonesian language classes that I did at school also, but it's been too long now to remember anything :lol:
