That's true Andrew.
The dark clouds of restrictions stops me from tackling the off beaten track. I have a missus who's ideal of camping is in a hotel room sleeping in a sleeping bags and at times I have a busy schedule at work (hard to get time off). Best thing about my job is I sometimes go off road with the company 4WD. I don't have Cape York or the High Country near by but will have the Glasshouse Mountains close to me next year. I can easily take my beast off road near my place but I am not about to do that just to say I've been off road with my fourby.
I also sometimes wonder why people buy vehicles like a Prado and spend so much money on it and sell it in couple of years time and for some... not even a years time.
I am opposite, after an extensive research It has taken me at least a year and a half to buy a Prado and knowing it will last me a while. I don't like wasting money and this is why I am trying to pick the brains of other Prado owners who has been there and done that, made the wrong decision and made the right ones.
I am very confident that the standard ATR can tackle some of the off beaten track and a decent rubber without the need of a suspension can get you places. The Dunlop's are still brand new and I will not waste it.
Cheers BM
