Well get out there and buy em up, I prefer to replace my WG with one thats had the bugs worked out of it, low Kms and heaps less dollars. Actually I really like last of the model run with low Km, they last for ages. The Trailhawk looks good, don't know about running up a creek full of sheoaks though.

I spotted a trailhawk at Chullora today and yes, it has two big red recovery hooks. I have asked the service manager to find out if they can be retro fitted to MY12.

I was at the dealer the other day and they had a new 2013 Trailhawk in the showroom. It definitely had 2 tow hooks and I immediately asked if they could be fitted to my 2012. After a lot of investigation, the answer is no.

On the positive side, the 2013 Trailhawk does have a new belly pan that will fit 2012 WK2s.

Check out my other post for more info.
