Hey all i been looking around and occassionly commenting in here for a while now. Everyones got nice trucks and nice mods etc. I thought i better get a few pics up of mine.
I got a 2010 TD Auto SR5 Lux. Optioned up from Toyota with Sports hard lid, Tray liner, Revearsing camera, Chrome Billet Grill, all plastic and mats.
The plan innitially was to option up before i got it but to keep it under the luxuary sales tax threshhold , i got it with the above mentioned options and then shopped around for the options myself.
The to do list of my own, Suspension Lift, Bull bar, Tow bar, AT's for general use and MT's for play, Snorkel, Tints, some alloys and Sports Chrome/ Clear tail lights the list goes on but that was the start.
I have since had the 3" Cal Off road suspension lift done, the Safari snorkel fitted and all going according to plan the ARB Delux Bull Bar next week and a Marks addaptor electronics box to callibrate the speedo as tyre size change, if it can be arranged, engineered also. I got the bar, lift and snorkel in a package deal from a local buisness at Penrith. I have also had the H/D tow bar hitch fitted and had BFG 31/10.5/15's fitted to the standard alloys and the front windows timted to legal.
I did a deal with the local Bob Jane Tmart and baisically 2 days after getting the lux traded in the factory HT tyres on the BFG's and it worked out i got $150 per tyre for the HT so $750 all up and paid an additional $675 to get the BFG's. I was pretty happy with that.

I have more plans for my lux in the future and as some of you know via post's elswhere in here use to have a heavilly modified lux over 10 years ago before it got written off. Unfortunatly with family and work commitments im yet to get it dirty in anger and am hanging to get out sometime soon hpefully as is my wife. We are also looking to taking our son on his first off roading adventure. As everytime he see's a pic of a Lux including anyones in here, he gets a big grin and yell's "daddies" so we keen to take him out for some real fun
I also just picked up over the last 4 weeks or so a set of Speedy Grandes and a set of 2nd hand BFG Mud Terrains in 265/75/16. The keen eyes may notice there are 2 different mud terains models in shot. I picked up a set of 4 BFG "Radial Mud Terrains" in the older tread pattern and i picked up seperatly a near new BFG km Mud Terrain that had been somone's spare. Of the tyres in the set of 4 i picked up 3 were quite good, the forth had slight to mild sidewall damage so am keeping it for a spare and running the additional km on the truck. The muddies will primarily be a play set.[img]
