Here is a newer Nissan Patrol that was being used by security contractors near the Syrian Border, I thought I'd post up some pics of this outstanding expedition vehicle for all you Nissan folks here on ExPo!

I was able to drive the previous generation model around the base when I was at Al-Asad. They are very cool and this one had been well abused.

That's sweet Dave.
I've seen a bunch of them featured in AUS4WD and they are very impressive. They rival Landcruiser's down under, for most beloved fourbie.

I hate it when you find a killer rig that you can't have (frequent) and soil your shorts (not saying).
