All,
I just came back from a 4 week trip thru the Gulf with 2 x D4-D Prados (1 x Manual & 1 x Auto) towing Camper Trailers.
Manual averaged approx 12.0 l/100km while auto averaged 13.3 l/100km but was towing heavier trailer (I don't want to get into discussion about fuel consumption).
My new Polaris running OziExplorer was just fantastic and I am happy to talk to anyone about how it is setup etc. Highly recomended.
But, to the topic of my post: While in Karumba, we had both vehicles parked beside each other and I happened to notice that one vehicle (Jan08 build) had a single factory radio aerial (port side) while the slightly older vehicle (April07 build) has 2 factory aerials (both port and starboard sides).
The newer vehicle has the Polaris unit plus single factory aerial and it gets inferior radio reception than the older vehicle with original factory radio but dual factory aerials so I can't confirm if the poorer reception is due to single aerial or Polaris radio.
Has anyone else noticed that newer vehicles have a single aerial only while older vehicles have dual aerials? (I searched on this topic but couldn't find any similar posts).
Thanks
Andrew
