Worst thing I bought was a Hilux Surf, something went wrong every time I went away, only kept it for a year.
Like others I bought the plastic egg holders, broke every egg I put in it, now I leave them in the carton and never break eggs.

PS: Macca you should not be allowed to go shopping by yourself, obviously have no self control. lol

Brought my 6 cell MAGLITE just before LEDS came on the market.
It sits with its 4 cell and double A mates while I have 15 Led torches from over the years.
The P7 would have to be the best all rounder,
Tents as the GLF worked at Kmart I have 10 tents ATM, couple are new in boxes
, gave a few 10 man cabin style to a mate and the guy up the road.
4 swags. Should list all you want to get rid of .
chairs would have to be a biggie with me but my latest chair seems to work ok so far

I regret getting a RTC damper POS. Going through a few sets of shocks before getting the Kings, should have forked out the money the first time, Same with the springs, they are still not right need another set to get the ride, travel and handling characteristics I am after.
Dropping the length of the front shocks to try and save the bushes and tie rod ends a bit and then having (and knowing) the hybrid arms coming
on the market. Now I dont have the travel I want but now have an increased service life of some front end componants and can now afford to have more travel, should have waited and not been so impatient.

Alot of the time I regret taking out the aircon to replace it with the radiator for my intercooler.

I have always wanted an allrounder. All rounders means sacrifice in certain areas of 4wding. Some of the sacrifices I have made are a bit too much. This I found out on the high country trip where there were some things I could make better without affecting it ability to crawl and flex.

Sooo I have been thinking about an entire setup change, recently finding out that the long arms can be engineered but only with a 2 inch lift. A 2 inch lift is the path I am going to go down now. Was at a mates place yesterday discussing what I can do about a fully bolt on antirock sway bar and shock mount setup so I still have the same flex, and increase stability all tucked into a 2 inch lift and 37 inch tyres
