Cheers,
Grumbles

Re: GPS system on new 2012 Hilux
Hi KPG,
Do you mind me asking what you paid for the unit? And who installed it and what that costs?
Lastly, does the GPS work well and what maps are used?
Thanks,
Grumbles

Re: Hi from PE
Thanks Mud Dog,
Yes it has taken some time, but here I am. The more I read the more I wish I had stretched the budget and went the 4x4 route...
Anyway, love the cab and will have to see what the future holds...
