Jaw.......hits.......floor .

Holy crap, that is awesome!!!

Lets take it bush

Wonder how much the conversion cost. It wouldn't go very fast anymore

 

[diesel junkie]

V8 diesel, me thinks it`ll go plenty fast.
Those engines sound sweat too, little rattle at idle v8 burble as revs pick up & then nice subdued roar.........gone!

I'm not sure if those are Mattracks, but if they are, that rear wheelwells days are numbered. A friend who worked in McMurdo drove around in a few superduties and every truck had buggered fenders.

The tracks reduce the gear ratios to something like 7.3's. It won't go that fast

The speedo is something like 100kmh and the actual speed is like 57-60kmh (so like 63mph = 30-35mph)

I believe our snowfields in the Snowy Mountains are bigger than Switzerlands but not as spectacular and the season is short.
There is also skiing down in Tassie as well.

Hey,and we also have a 80 series model called the "Alpine"

I bet it would take some getting used to driving the bloody thing!!
