3rd party Videos Rohny Dahl video incoming

That'll get ya a key in the paint around here.

Nobody's that special.

Yep. Too true. I did that once at a bottle-o with an empty car park. Soon as I turned off the engine the sales guy ran over and told me off for parking in two spaces. There were over 50 empty ones around me but still not acceptable to an Aussie Bottle-O. I moved it as I have no doubt that without moving there would be no booze sold. Totally agree. No-one’s that special

I do rather like the looks of Ronny's heavily modded 76. My guess is its extremely capable and durable. i knew they were extremely basic off the showroom floor, i had no idea there were still that expensive though and thats a ton of stuff to have to add aftermarket to get not even to feature parity with base models of comparable offroaders.

People on the internet say things like ‘oh these 70 series would sell great in the US’ but I have to call bullshit on that even if Toyota bothered to make sellable here (ie carb compliance). I think he said it was $88k AUD which is ~$55k USD. Most likely they would just cannibalize Toyota’s own enthusiast market of 4Runner/Tacoma/LC sales.

I have to agree.
If they would sell well in the US Toyota would be selling them.
They sell well in the middle east and africa. I think they even have a nickname for the, Technicals.
They even named a war after them.

Would the review be any different if the vehicle was his and not supplied by Ineos for six months?
Hopefully Ronny will move from Toyota and buy a Grenadier, set it up his way and use it long term like his old dual cab. Land Cruisers have been done to death from everyone, time for something new.

He won't, he actually said he'd like to keep it but would loose too many subscribers if he jumped ship (came from a source in the Perth dearship)

 

[MrMike]

Ronny would love a Trialmaster cab chassis. Add in a long range tank, Norweld tray or canopy, JMACX suspension upgrade with GVM, etc

They have one in Perth on 35s with a 3 inch lift and Norweld tray at the dealership, hopefully he gets to test it.

I might call in and take it for a test drive

Yeah, just see if they have it available, give Eadon a call 0421 351 931 he's the sales rep

He has several Toyota LC70s as long as one is used regularly the Ineos would bring in more subscribers. The bigger issue would be which advertisers would reduce content with him if he went towards Ineos. Ronny pretty much put the Toyota specialists PDP on the YT and socials map when he was getting his older LC repaired and the two businesses still work together specialising in Toyota products.

I understood he was selling / has sold his 79 Series ute and he is keeping his 76 wagon.

So while he has no room for a grenadier, he certainly has room for a quartermaster cab chassis if he’s game enough to take the plunge.

 

[ECrider]

Hasnt he got a Prado in white as well?

Yep, he keeps smashing it up, as you do.
Selling to the soccer mum set. Or alternatively using that to get some appeal from the US market that doesn’t get the real LC300.
