Been offroad a few times, but nothing too heavy-duty (stuff like touring in the flinders etc)

Selling your Jeep traitor! Why?!:
Relocating to Norway (they drive on the wrong side of the road), so both my Jeeps and Jeep gear has to go (before the new year).


I'll consider trades or swaps - but only if you have a Jeep for me in Norway. And said Jeep must have a heater coz it's -18C there. (so no dodgy WGs with busted blend doors eh!)

Where at and for how long?
Melbourne - near the Flemington Racecourse and Melbourne Showgrounds for the next two weeks, then probably left as an orphan (with his WH Grand brother) at my old's place near the airport.

Somebodies going to get a great little truck there Eric.

Wish I was a collector Eric, it would go into my big shed (who knows you might want it back one day). After one winter there you will be dying to get back here, and -18C will be a balmy day in mid-winter.

After 28 years in Canada I can offer you this advice: Whatever you buy over there make sure it has a good block heater, battery heater, and you have a powered parking space. Freezing door locks are a major pain so it must have remote locking/unlocking but you'll still need to get some of the alcohol based lock de-icer. Other must haves: Tungsten studded snow tyres if they still allow them (they chew up the road surface in summer if left on), and a good remote start system (press the button from the warmth of your home and the vehicle starts itself and turns on the heater!).

You'll be back.

-18C wow and I thought sleeping in the scrub in Canberra under a hootchie for a few days in winter was bad........ YOU"LL DEFINATELY BE BACK!!

haha - that's not too cold... i think....

I hike a fair bit and have snow camped out the back of Falls Ck and Mt Bogong a few times. Coldest i've experienced is -7C. Not too cold when you're in a tent all snug as a bug.
Bloody cold when you've got to bare your behind when nature calls and it's blowing snow onto bare skin (sensitive bare skin might i add).

here's a pic off the top of west peak at Bogong...
