Hi everyone, I would like to introduce myself with my build I started exactly a year ago
.
There I was, buying a Hilux with 0 knowledge on 4x4 trucks from a neighbor who decided it is time to move on with a new one. Little I know in what condition this one was :/. All I needed was a 4x4 vehicle to drive to our old house and farm up in the hills. RHD oh man, a challenge
, let's try it.
I won't lie, the first time I sit in it, started that engine, a unexpected reflex smile was on my face. Let's take this one for a spin, short trip to a mountain close by, ~30km (~20 miles) away. Of course, I did acquire some knowledge about part time 4x4 systems (thanks YouTube and some Australian guy posting a video on how to drive 4x4 ~4hrs in total, what a marathon video), so I can utilize the broad range of gears and capabilities of the truck.
Wife was getting jealous is what I can say,
. Hilux was getting a lot of attention. Then reality kicked in ...
