Just want to know if its worth spending the extra R30k ($3000) on a higher specced model...

Thank you
Welcome! Go all the way and get the TRD model

It's a PNW joke up here.

A two year old boy in Seattle was in his back yard one day, when he ran inside and excitedly ask his mom "mommy - mommy, what's that big, round, orange thing in the sky??" The mother replied, that's called ...... the sun.
