Hi all,
Ive owned a Landcruiser since 2011, but have only just now joined the ih8mud forum.
I originally had a '98 105 that I built up specifically for remote area touring, and in the 11 years that I had it, covered almost all of central Australia. We also enjoyed getting to use the stubby lever and did several trip to the Victorian High Country. It was on one of these trips (the last one, obviously
) that saw the demise of my faithful ol' 105 on Mother's Day, 2022. I managed to flip it halfway onto its roof and damaged the roof line and A-pillar enough to write it off.
So now I'm the proud owner of an '06 HDJ100, and are almost at a point where I have finished decking THAT one out. We've done a couple of trips in it as shake-down runs and to get familiar with a new (to me) car, before entrusting our lives with it and taking it back out into the never-never.
Cheers
Nobby
