does anyone know if toyota is planning to put airbags in 79 series utes? My company is about to off-load its cruisers for probably hilux's because we HAVE to have airbags. I would much rather keep my cruiser. I don't pay for the fuel and it covers 2500km a week over some of the roughest roads in the west. The hilux I borrowed for a few months earlier in the year was too bouncy couldn't cope with the rocky creek crossings.

Don't know about Toyota utes getting airbags but I read in Fridays paper that Nissan are fitting dual airbags to Patrol utes due to customer demand. Don't be surprised if Toyota catches up and fits them soon. Daryl hmm ... a patrol. Last one of those I drove was back in 93. The only problem I can think of is it may have a wider track, well they look like it. My vehicle is fitted with hyrail gear for standard gauge rail. Thanks for the info.

An air bag will save you when a 100 tonne dump truck runs over the Cruiser:-) Daryl PPPPPFFFFFFFF splat David > > nah, BHP policy.

Your missing the point guys. The airbag will help keep your face in tact as the rest of you gets mangled. That way your next of kin can not sue the company because they could not have an open casket at your funeral! Garry The 2007 78/79 series will have a 4.4 lt TD V8 but no air bags until the 2008 model from what I am reading. Take a read of 4x4 Australia September issue page 10/11. > does anyone know if toyota is planning to put airbags in 79 series utes? > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Darren |
