Went and saw my mate who owns Meteor Car & Truck rental in Townsville today. He runs GX diesels + Hiluxes. These vehilcle work all over Nth Qld. When I asked if he had experienced "the rattle" he said he replaces the fuel filters on delivery as he doesn't trust the Tojo model to get the water out of the fuel. He has not had this problem on the D4D. But ... he said anyone who gets fuel from an old petrol bowser (or drum at really remote sites) is looking for trouble.
He's had 2 GLs totalled recently. One in Mt Isa where the driver swerved to miss a cow and flipped it back on to its wheels - still drivable but not much roof left and the other on the Bloomfield track where a church group lost it on a corner and went a**e into a tree which bounced them across the road and then went front into another tree. Both paid $5k excess!
