    Bought my first 4WD today - GU Patrol

    Hi Everyone,

    I bought my first 4WD today, a GU Patrol. Don't get to pick it up until the middle of next week but I'm very excited and jumped online to find out some info on what I want to do to it.

    I live in Hastings, VIC and will want to go out and learn some 4WD skills soon. Can anyone recommend a course or club in the area?

    Thanks in advance for the info I'll be getting off this forum.

    Cheers,
    Shaun

    She's a beauty.
    Welcome mate, surely the best forum on the net. If you need it, you can get it, if you want to know it, just ask it.


    Never argue with an idiot, cos he'll bring you down to his level, then beat you with experience.

    Welcome mate and congrats on the new rig. She looks great. You'll have a lot of fun, just remember to ease into it and take it steady to begin with.
