Default huge week end at straddie
just thought i would write and tell people the week end we had a straddie and how good it was. imagine 10 new cars bogged to their axles (were talking prado's, pathfinders, xtrails, rav's) all at once coming of the beach. hahahahahaha what a sight to see. the only thing that made it better for us was our wrangler, no roof, no doors no anything just fly past them all on the sand. i could see how pissed of they were.

also got to drive the new landcruiser troop carrier - v8 turbo diesel with air lockers, it is a weapon!!!!! on the beach and on the road - highly recommended

will upload pics as soon as i get the camera cable - ive lost it.

mmm have had the same experience getting on to the Leisha track, new discos, patrols etc either bogged or needing long run ups to get through. My little 12 year old XJ just passed them with no effort!

We recently had a boys trip to the Barmah sandhills. Patrols, Cruisers, Navara and the Wrangler. The boys could not believe that I only had to put it into 4wd twice for the whole day... Even backing up the sandhills.
