Hello, I have been following MUD for a while and finally joined since I want to continue to learn about this legendary machine and my appreciation keeps growing. My first exposure to the legend is probably around nine years old, my uncle had a 40 series in the Philippines. I’ll never forget the trips we used to take to go to the beaches, and I had the privilege to sit on the floor, facing sideways in between my brother’s legs so I can tag along. If you are not familiar, the roads there shouldn’t even be classified as roads LOL. It was rough. I didn’t know much about them back then, but it certainly caught my attention and the more I learned about them, the more I liked and appreciated what it represented. Years and years later, my first opportunity to own one was a mighty 80 series, which lasted about a year until some young man blasted me in the back and I ended flipping the 80 series upside down. Luckily, I was in an 80 series and was able to walk away with some not so major injuries. Now, I have jumped into a 2013 200 series, and man it is everything and then some. I just want to thank everyone here for taking the time to share their knowledge, it is beyond helpful for someone like me who is not well versed in wrenching, but able to change the oil now LOL. I look forward to continued learning and experience the great outdoors with this beast! Thank you.
