Look, make no mistake, a Patrol would be the solution to all our "problems", but does create another big one for me, and that is the budget to feed that monster with petrol or diesel. I went wheeling a few weeks back and had a few Patrols with us. Those things are mega capable. I would need lockers front and back, 10 inch lift, SAS with articulation to the tenth degree and probably still be at a disadvantage due to the power loss I suffer with my little 2.7TD.
BUT, speaking to some of the guys that have upgraded from my truck to a Patrol, they say they are now at a disadvantage when it comes to overlanding with the Patrol. Fuel is one issue, but the main one is interior space. Seems you just can't get as much into a Patrol as I could get into my van. You would never say so when you see the two parked next to each other, but they say the shape of the packing space is limiting.
