Yes that is correct going for a play next weekend, it has been so long that I really need some tips from you experts.
Things like how the hell do I engage 4WD and other stuff required.

My only advice is 2 ditch the GQ and buy a Nissan Pulsar N16

Make sure you take plenty of Pics of your outing!

Stay away from mud - too expensive.

Stay away from beaches - too corrosive.

Stay away from rocky tracks - too hard on undercarriage, which is the first place the mags tell second hand buyers to look. Too hard on resale value.

In other words, keep doin' watcha' been doin' :-)

Hey Doggy,

Seeing as your not sure about the selecting 4x4 bit, just remember when you engage 4x4 unless you have auto hubs, you or a passenger will have to leave the comfort and safety of the cabin area to engage those hub thingy's on the front wheels.

Seriously though have fun out there and keep the shiny side up.

Onya Doggy, hope ya had a good weekend mate.
Have a look under, you may have picked up a bit of fencing wire or Mud on the brakes.
By the way, I think the 4.2 might have a slight miss, sounds like a valve mate.
Cheers, the ferret.
