My first post of the year is to say , Korny, you my friend are an idiot.

Thats not 4WD'ing. 4WD'ing is "OMFG We are not going down that...oh f**k I'm going to die" and then watch as the 4WD in front proceeds to inch down and the back wheels come 3 feet off the ground as the front drops down a rut.

took about 2 hours with normal hose as mud was fresh, BUT the clay was still there until we sold it a couple of years ago! :D

i like the fact that you're wearing completely white shoes when 4WDing :P

Post 16

Korny that is pissweak...Me, Sardok and Mordin have had some totally excellent journeys man. Our Suzuki's outdoing bigger 4wd's :P Mine sucked a little cause it was a tad heaver but had a bigger engine. Try going out to Gunn Point hunting reserve in the wet... bloody big tracks there. Or if you want to try some hill climbing, out the back of hidden valley is great.

Theres some places further down the track for some rockhopping although i never took the suzi out there.

Front bumper, rear bumper!! They were both sitting in the back of the excel at the end of the trip! Not to mention popping the front tyre crossing a creek, then trying to get the lock nut off the mag without the socket for it. That weekend was lot of fun!!
