Had my Ti-L patrol 18 months. Had the lift, 35s front bar, suspension all done. Looks a beast. Love it. Done the full lap of Oz towing a 3.5t van. Average full calculated on a spreadsheet 22.5l per 100. Don’t even notice the wood grain. Drives like a gem. Beach driving! What beach. It is like driving on a highway. Handles it with ease. Good value for money in my opinion.

[@4x4CampingandAdventures]

Great cars mate I loved mine

[@gavinhowie8189]

Loved?? What happened to the 10 year plan??

[@gavinhowie8189]

Sorry just caught up on a later edition which explained that you no longer have the 62. Sorry mate. Fortunately I have managed to do the big lap without any issues. Hope the Ranger treats you well

[@1nando632]

The biggest benefit of the y62 is that it doesn't have any common rail diesel fragilitys to suffer from, very reliable drivetrain!

[@4x4CampingandAdventures]

One of the best V8s to be put into a car people forget they used these motors for the V8 super car series, from factory they are so capable and reliable

[@VsV6Ute]

not to mention emissions standards crap like DPF

[@4x4CampingandAdventures]

Mentioned this in my first video on the Y62 one of the main reasons of going for a petrol

[@craigmcpherson1827]

No need to worry about frozen/ gelled fuel either

[@trackexplore]

Good video. In my opinion, these days, there really aren't any "bad and unreliable" new 4wd's anymore. No matter what you buy, there'll always will be haters. They'll hate the brand you buy. They'll hate the fact it's petrol. They'll hate the fact you only have one solid axle, or none. We've got 2 jeeps, we know all about haters. As long as one is happy with the vehicle they've bought. As long as that vehicle does what it is expected to do, who cares. I do know one thing, those Y62's sound mint. Keep up the good work.

[@4x4CampingandAdventures]

Haha they do sound bloody fantastic mate always put a smile on my face thanks for watching buddy.

[@roytaylor7807]

Don't forget to tell the 200 guys that diesel is now on average 55 cents a litre dearer than petrol, a test the other day on a 12k loop ^62 towing a 3,5 ton van 22.5 LPH 200 Toyota same van 34.4 LPH

[@Stevegrande1]

I bought my patrol new this year. The wife said she’d pay to get the wood grain wrapped, I said I couldn’t care less, I don’t pay any attention to it. People carryon about the patrol having the wood grain and a CD player, so does the new 300 Sahara, the current Kakadu even has it one the steering wheel, people carry on about no apple car play, my wife’s new Mercedes’ has all that crap, I still don’t use it when I drive it, the patrol head unit reads out my messages if need be, i use my phone for google maps which plays through blue tooth, people replace the head units with the after market screens, look like cheap plastic rubbish, I’d prefer the factory unit. The engine in the patrol is a absolute pearler, plenty of grunt, still blows a 200 and 300 off at the lights if need be and gives the boys inn their commodores a good run for their money and surprises a few, love it when they jump over to the left lane and there lane runs out on the other side of the lights and they have to pull back in behind. For a huge 2800kg brick on wheels and being able to pull 100 around the 7 second mark surprises a few. I believe the new Y63 will be twin turbo V6, it will be quicker then the V8 but nothing has the rumble of the vk56 under the bonnet of the current patrol, change the factory muffler to a sports muffler for around $300, it has a great sound, no droning, fantastic vehicle

[@aaronclausen654]

Mate took my factory Y62 patrol up Mount Meharry in WA, which is an epic, hardcore steep rocky crumbling 4wd track. Had the stock 265 tyres on and all, no bloody worries, the thing ate it up with ease! Love this car and what it can do, feels so safe and secure. I'm running 285s now and no lift, the thing is pretty unstoppable!

[@4x4CampingandAdventures]

Bloody oath mate people done realise how capable these things are

[@lukehutchinson6754]

Went the space cab PJ ranger for the suicide doors as I loved the accessibility of the rear area. Still going strong 15yrs later and 220k kms. Got to go with what you are after and not worry about opinions. Looking forward to your next solo and any other DIYs(if there's any left to do) cheers 🍻

[@bibideeboo262]

Excellent review! So well said 👍

[@4x4CampingandAdventures]

Thank you kindly!

[@MLmusic1]

Loved the vid. I know the 'hate' stuff you're going through. I've had a lot of shade about my swb Prado being a toy car, not a 'real' Landcruiser etc etc... and that's just from Toyota blokes! A 2 inch lift and all terrains, she's never let me down in over 10 years. Best thing I love is the factory rear locker, let's me stroll up hills the 70 series vehicles have to lead foot on, spin wheels and lift wheels at weird angles. Being out in the bush is the best no matter what you drive! I'd love to see you do a wheatbelt trip. While not too tough, there's still plenty of interesting tracks around. Keep on doing what you love! Cheers Mara 😁

[@4x4CampingandAdventures]

Thanks mate you said it best just get out there and enjoy it I am bloody keen on a wheatbelt trip mate!

Great video, we are looking to buy one of these right now, here in the US we can only get the Armada, no rear locker, kinda a bummer. But super stoked to get one and learned a heap from you :)

Good to see you got it out the mate. Love the car although when you need to take stuff to the tip, do you find their isnt enough room in the back with a rear setup!? Hahahah! Thanks for a great weekend man! Had a ball with ya! Can’t wait to go on a send together!

[@4x4CampingandAdventures]

Hahahaha! Mate I just chuck it on the roof when I go to the tip 😂😂 was a great weekend mate loved the banter and company.

[@expandedconscious8265]

I needed a 7 seat wagon for everything from weekend trips to long range remote touring. With the cost of 200s/300s and the wait on 300s there was nothing else available on the market. For less then the price of a comparable 300s I have bought the TI Y62, priced up GVM upgrade, long range tank and a bunch of other goodies to get started and I am still in front by a good 10-15k.

[@4x4CampingandAdventures]

Exactly right mate you would be crazy to go the other way in my opinion

[@laloolhouvum1634]

In Australia, America and most of the European countries you can fit a high clearance bumpers/bull-bars with winch, spot lights, light bar, Antenna and on the rear a dual swing outs for bigger spare, maxtrax mount, jerry can carrier on your 4wd. Drive around town with no issue. However in India that's against the law. The penalty for offenders ranges from anywhere between ₹1000 and ₹5000. This is apart from the fact that cops will ensure on-spot removal of those bars.

[@craigmcpherson1827]

I read something about those no modification laws. Was quite shocked

[@offroadcrusader]

For a solo trip I reckon you should to a Blackwood run. With a large white 4WD wagon as your support vehicle, just in case :P Great video mate. The Y62 is definitely a weapon in its own right, and worthy competition for a 200 series!

[@4x4CampingandAdventures]

Hahahaha recon we should do a Y62 200 video mate?

[@darrindouglas1]

Mine's a '19 model. Was contemplating putting a blower on it ( a bucket list thing. I blame George Miller ). Minister of finance is not overly happy about it. Good choice of wheels.....lol. Taking a Next-Gen Everest for a test drive tomorrow (only 100mm narrower and 100mm shorter ). Be interesting to see how it goes. My van is 3T and I get anywhere from 25-30 L/100 towing, depending on the terrain. If I could get what I want for it, I might sell

[@NoOne56488]

Anything breaks if you push them hard, heaps of 200 series etc breaking cv's I've seen online. Cannot beat JDM built cars, and i love my soccer mum 4wd :D Things a beast, nice power, very nice ride and I'm over 6'2 and fit in my y62 so nice. Between 98 ron and 95 ron there is no real difference as it's not supercharged or turbo so you have NO real need to run 98 in them. No worries about dpf etc and diesel prices, they can even run on 91 ( will not run 100%) in a pinch. Also you MUST put a nice exhaust on these, it's a crime not too =P It's the 1st thing I'm doing with mine to make the Toyota people jealous haha

[@DavidAnderson-vt8iq]

Ok, tiny hands up, I'm a dinosaur, but I like the interior. Thanks for the video.

[@wildfiretouring]

If money was no objective and I was to do the old "dream build", the Y62 is the top of my list. As for surprise about my current MU-X, the capability and reliability I think it's a very under rated for a mid size 4WD compared to others the same size on the market. Plus price point compared to it's competitors.

[@4x4CampingandAdventures]

Diesel and less than half horses, but 2× power. In terms of power, I have never had power like this from factory.

The drama of getting the spare wheel out - dont start me on that! And as for the knocker & whinges - I just (rudely) walk away which takes away their audience.

@4x4 Camping and Adventures 100%, I don't disagree, I worked on cruisers as my profession for a number of years. 2k in the scheme of paying 95 to 105k is nothing really, and considering descent 3 way component speakers are now going for more then that, why not invest in the entertainment.
