Hey! Stop showing 4x4's offroad, you will shatter the fragile worlds of the
"4x4's never go offroad " brigade.

What highway is that with the triples?

Not to mention the mind-bending concept of a 4WD going off-road then
later appearing on-road without a spec of dirt on it. How can that be???

Those roads look a bit too narrow for triples.
Triples are rare in Vic., the only ones I see regularly in Melb belong
to Ford and run between the plants at Geelong and Cambellfield.

Relaxing the rules for car companies is a great Australian tradition :-)

Interesting the 2 interation on tray on back of 'lux.
They keep getting wider almost in proportion to engine size increases
over the years.
Why the feck ToyCo can't build a full size 4x4 'lux in the shape of
the 1988-1997 (or to 2004) with live axle, 6 cylinder in line
turbo diesel, not the ugly disposable shite they are currently
peddling, I'll *never* know. Oh, it might affect L/C pickup sales?
Dream vehicle? - my own 'lux, however supersized/scaled up and with
a Cummins 6BT turbo diesel engine :-)

Hey Kev - found your website and your tribute to *Colin C*.
Nice thing you have done there.
He was a great work mate, the absolute best there was.
We lived and breathed cars all the time.
As long as I am breathing air I won't forget that day.

I'm aware of the T100 as I took a new one for a test drive while in
the US in 1994. Cummins would not fit.
The Tundra (as per trashed in the Terminator movie) I kinda like,
has potential. Again, a Cummins 6BT is a fairly long engine so I'm
not sure it would fit.
> probably not as out of reach as you may think
All dream material, as would be a Dodge Cummins pickup for me, I'm
just too poor :-(

Asset rich, income poor.
Looks to be around $8 to $10K land tax this year due to recent
property sales.
Seeing how to move stuff around on two titles to avoid land tax,
if that does not work, father and I seriously considering the $3 to
$4 mil. I get a farm and he gets somewhere on the Gold Coast.
You know, moving out of Shiteney does not worry me, working my
current job from a farm kinda interests me.
Just gotta find an ocean front farm :-p
