Probably need a fire pump from the creek to hose off all the crud in the radiators so your temps wont be higher for the trip home.
They have the local rual fire service attend at the Cruiserkhana and for a gold coin donation they will blast your truck clean.
Highly recommend or throw a few $2 coins at the first car wash you see.
Has anyone done any fuel figures yet ???
04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there
Thank you to Kris and Fiona for opening their property to all of us. We had an absolutely fantastic weekend! Was great to meet you all. I still can remember half of the names I was introduced to though, but that's what the next meetup is for!
I got to test my GQ and learn a bit more about what the Patrol, and myself, are capable of. Just driving up and down Kriss's driveway was the most fun I have had in years!
I got to test a new setup for our camper trailer. This time with an indoor shower!
Lost the winding handle for the jockey wheel on the camper trailer on the trip out yesterday and while backing into a space to air up in Braidwood, some little old lady decided to crease her front quarter panel with the rear corner of my trailer. (No damage to my trailer) I got out to make sure that she was Ok and she says "I'm not sure who's at fault here" I said "Well, I was stationary when you hit my trailer" I made sure that the guard didnt rub on here tyre and that she could drive home. (I have to make a report on that today)
Mileage: 15lt / 100km from my humble RD28T on highway terrain tyres towing a fully loaded camper trailer (weighing close to one tonne)
Cheers,
Rob

Just about to jump into my next Patrol. A 2001 GU II TB45E .
WARNING!: Do not ever use a towball as a recovery point. They are not rated and can become a deadly projectile during a recovery if they snap off, and they have done so with tragic results in the past.
No worries at all, have more pics and a few vids 2 upload, sure the vids will never get uploaded though
Unfortunately most pic were taken on the shit phone camera as the digital SLR I couldn't find the second battery for so was trying 2 conserve the battery
Time is never wasted when your wasted all the time
