Thanks for the congrats on 100, hadn't even noticed!
Mainly use the truck for a bit of fun, bit of beach work and some camping but plan to do more when our girls get older.
I'm running gas, and my petrol tank is only about 25L, so the idea was to fill the gas tank and fuel tank, and to carry 2 fuel refills in case I was stuck somewhere without gas. Hopefully if I plan everything out it won't happen, however it is always a good idea, I think. Only takes one servo to be shut, or out of gas and 25L don't get you too far!
All my gear is good quality, I work in spare parts and the D shackles are all big stuff, apart from a few that are only for light work, my tow shackles are all massive. The nylon tow rope is basically only for emergencies but was rated at 3 tons and I've used it to pull start my GT Falcon without a problem. The snatchem strap is a mean mother one.
We have food warmers at work, the bonus being I can use it in the car and also in my boat, if it keeps a pie warm or makes a toasted sanga I'd be happy.
I've seen lots of 4wds with a plastic (I assumed) PVC pipe on the roof, about 100mm diameter with a tap on the end, is there a pipe to use that is safe for drinking? I was planning on using it for showering as well, but ill grab a couple of cheap shower bags I think.
My next big thing will be to make a water bra, it will have to be permanently attached as I have a bullbar with 2 bull lights on top, so ill make it in a way that I can roll it up and keep it connected to the top bar with straps, and fold it down.
