About time
All this time here and not introduced myself.
Hello everybody, my name is Chris and I own Patrols.
That's the start of my recovery isn't it, admitting it is the first step eh?
I/we own 3. An '07 DX wagon, ex rental/lease. 117k km 3 months ago when we got it, 120 now. It went thriugh it's service no problem.
A '91 GQ 4.2 petrol. Bought a year ago for $800 with a knackered front wheel bearing that ended up being the axle as well. Replaced from wrecker for $450.
A GQ for parts. Bought after the need for the axle. DOH!
I live in Perth and drive MC around the country. I've not been over the border since November though.
I am, from my forum name, a kiwi. Last place I lived there was Palmerston North. I grew up in Blenheim. 12 years in the UK truck driving, hence the other bit of the forum name. 2.5 years here so far. Would like to live in Vancouver, Canada, but probably wont happen.
I keep telling myself I'll join a hockey club here, but can't be arrr bothered ringing one.
Is that enough about me? I could go on some more. . .
