Well what a totally different beast the Mighty GQ is to drive compared to the old auto petrol clunker. Pretty much had to change the way I drive off road. So much low down torque enabling me just to crawl up stuff rather than having to give it a bit if extra right foot, engine braking is something I'm not used to either, so was hard work trying to keep my foot off the break and just letting the engine do the work for me. Was a great learning experience having to unlearn what I learnt while driving the auto. Definitely gonna take a bit of time to get used to it........ Also gonna have to get an auto locker for the clunker, couldn't believe the difference it makes.
Stropp mate, thanks for coming out and keeping a watchful eye on me bud, very much appreciated.............


Right then, next time sand driving ;):D

I have to say, at this stage I prefer the auto box, specially for climbing. But for down hill, definitely manual. The TD42 is a friggin awesome engine, it just pulls and pulls and pulls..... Bloody love it bud :D
