    Great story Daz and a great experience for all those involved, Zach will never forget it.
    Do you think you could have got it out with your GQ? I have yet to see this mythical GQ.

    Guess a lesson well learnt but i reckon most of us have been somewhere similar in the past, know I sure have a couple of times. As long as no one gets hurt definatly a lesson that stays with you for a long while.

    Despite the debacle looks like heaps of fun, guess it would have made up for our lack of winching the other weekend. . .

    I actually enjoyed every minute of it to be honest, was a tough day but there no real stress and no arrogant or demanding people on the hill. We just got it done and everyone went home safe.

    I don't think Matt got why I was not angry with him, truth be told your on the money Rossco, every one of us has been there, I certainly have and will remember those lessons for ever. He grew a little on that hill and that's a good thing.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Yeah was frustrating because I would have just gone home and swapped cars. Would have had no trouble sorting it out with the GQ. Might go back for a look when it's going A few mates are already asking whether it's worth another look. Hehehehe.

    Yeah Zach fair dinkum had a Rippa weekend. 200 rounds out of the .22 for fun, a few stalking walks, a big muddy recovery, he hasn't really seen one before and he was actively participating which was fantastic, and then a fast run in the comp truck wearing full race harnesses and hanging on to the Roll Cage! He might have taken a couple of pics to school

    Agree, your nephew will grow and learn immensely from this and he'll be an infinitely better offroad driver because of it. I know I had my "awakening" from my police rescue incident, but that's a campfire story with trusted companions, not for here! Similar in so many ways: new to 4x4, inexperienced, under-prepared, under-equipped, the long hike out, etc etc! Ahh the memories!


    Gong him Red!!
