OH LEATHER IS NICE
pulled several meters of excess wiring from the patrol, seems previous owners just kept all the extras (spotty's/cb etc) by cutting the wiring at either end and leaving the mess there! when i put my electrical stuff on i want to start from scratch rather than fixing other peoples stuff ups.....
Took it for my first sand drive and got bogged on purpose, actually took a bit to get bogged. They don't allow beach driving in Vic. so had to go to a local lake. Tried out the TREDS, wasn't impressed.
Some experimenting with different tyre pressures and found the sweet spot at 15psi. For this sand it was ideal, just floated over everything after that. Learning something new everyday and enjoying it. Had my daughter, son in law and grandkids in the Toymota for company. They are very experienced with sand driving so got some good advice.
Spent the rest of the afternoon driving around one of the local lakes visiting spots I'd never been able to get to before. Could be a very interesting drive in the wet from the looks of some of the old wheel ruts.

Well that dreaded day came, as I towed him up the highway I could almost see a tear in his headlight.
The photo's attached show his mileage at point of sale and his sad, sad look sitting on the trailer he towed across this wide brown land.
