Just after I got my Hilux I was looking for information on the internet. So I Googled 'Hilux' and came across the Hilux 4x4 club. I subsribed to the newsletter and I have been receiving it for two or more years. When the 4x4community forum could not get me a VHF Orra licence, I was looking for a club to join in order to be eligible for a licence. But this forum offers so much more than what I originally joined up for. Well done!

I was a member of the Land cruiser club some some years back.
My pops who is still an active member and a cruiser enthusiast suggested I sign up here once I have my Hilux.

I often search Hilux or Cruiser related topics, and most of the good information comes from here or 4x4Community. I actually joined to post my bakkie here, possibly to sell, but it's a hard decision.
