Tough looking shorty mate.

If I had the bucks my toy would be a Patrol shorty.

I just need the GU Ute for work and towing but if i ever come across some funds I would definatly go a shorty any day of the week.

If you ever do turbo charge it you could bounce your way through some great tracks.

Nice truck mate, hard work with the winch but good fun hey

Yeah that was actually a video of the 2009 Otway trip I ran on MudRhino forum (majority of the guys on there are into the harder style of 4x4n), I ran the same trip again this year and that particular track was was even harder now compared to that video

Think it was around 6-7hrs to complete the track and majority of it was winching
