Squeegee that moisture and sell it. Every oz matters there.

My wife will like this idea. Is there a thread about bottling and selling LC run-off water to self fund PM and repairs??? I mean if Fiji can do it, I think we have a fair shake at establishing a viable business here!

Hi all!
This is my first post so Hi! to everyone. My name is Mike I am from Poland. This is our yota, it is European spec so it differs a bit from your rigs. Oh and I've been watching forum for long long time but now I decided to become a user.

Best Wishes

THX!
I know they are not so common in USA. I am more like V8 (gas) fan and I own Durango on my own but I do love 1HDT. Especially driving on low gears and feeling the torque.
 
First post here so, I thought this would be appropriate.

1. Year and model
1993 HDJ80 4.2L 12v Turbo Diesel. It has/had several colours, ranging from the red bordeaux original to current white(ish)...

2. Name of owner
Paulo

3. Name of rig
Everyone calls it the Tanker

4. Mileage
Over 400.000km (although I guess it has many more
ylsmoke.gif
)

5. Mods...if any
Living its last decade (and more) as press vehicle in events like Dakar rally, Africa Eco Race, it's not in pristine condition! Nowadays it runs on a double suspension setup, 4 bucket seats, internal full rollcage, 2 fuel tanks etc

6. How the truck is used
It has been used on expeditions to Morocco and offroading in Portugal and that will be it's future role...

7. Photo. again...small to save space :)

Wow... I agree with @mr natural. Beautiful color, and from what you're saying, it's in absolutely awesome condition. This is a prime example of perfect, serious, and hard research, because this cruiser will easily last you another 19 years. I wish you and your beautiful rig a great and fun future!
