Hello
« on: February 26, 2012, 01:24:38 PM »
I've just found this site and joined.  Looks to be huge!  I can see myself spending too much time here already. We have a 150 series Prado and an Ultimate camper. I'm recently retired but my wife wants to keep working now that I am home all the time! Biggest Prado disappointment (apart from the lack of power) is the 3rd row seats and the height of the floor. Cannot get into the Engel without climbing ropes and cannot install a fridge slide into the back of the 3rd row seats. Hopefully I will find some tips in the next few days.

Welcome to myswag, I hear you with the 150 and the third row seats. That's why I'll be keeping my 120 :)

G'day & Welcome Mac.

Do you need to retain the 3rd row of seats, can you remove them and free up the space, lose the weight? There are a few members with 150s on here who have fridges, slides, drawers etc.
