HAHA... Thinus, you are never going to live it down. Your right foot is just too heavy bud.
I'd love to get my hands on a oldie like this....

Re: Changing to the Dark Side
I guess it’s cos there’s a lot more knowledge and experience these days with a td42t here?
I do like my td42.
BUT, nothing will beat the comfort of the auto 4.8

What happened not being able too turbo a Patrol successfully. Must be the SAC dyno that gets them running sweet. That's how I got mine to run so well and Dirk is still enjoying it.
Alex, all well and touring with my Companion Caravan that is now kitted. Far easier towing and you have all the comforts' . Miss the Patrol but the Ford Ranger with some bits from Gerhard before he left for NZ has made it a beast. 180 kW and 600 Nm. Uni Chip ++ with 4 programs so I can select from fuel economy, to full power or std and then one for towing which ups the torque.
Did a trip in Bots with a group only using caravans and was a dream,
Maybe see what it can do at the drag race event:
