Good evening, Am wildmann who some will know from the Hunt Fish forum. Have come on here as I'm guessing you guys know a bit more about trucks than alot of hunters... Myself I dont really know bugger all and am in the market for a new wagon to get around in. Am no into prue 4WDing but want a reliable unit for getting tough places so any suggestions/tips would be much appreciated....
Cheers,
Dean

Re: Hello
Right... I'll leave that last one out... 
Just after something reliable, I currently have a Rocky and its too small so a Surf/Teranno or Hilux/Navara or Bighorn or Safari. Am not fussed as long as it gets me up farm tracks and across big rivers... Would spend upto about 10k for a nicer wagon but am aiming around the 5k mark at the moment...

Now ya talking cobber, especially for those big rivers. All those other ones will just float way.

rain, hail, sleet or snow, we go!
Re: Hello
Hmm dont quite have that sort of budget and my taste is a little different to Jaffa's by the look... 105k would get me ALOT of chopper time 
Thats what I'm thinking Al, last crossing of the MaCaughly in my rocky was interesting to say the least...

Well when can float a safari, come and see me. Had mine floating a few times, washing downstream and those that know me know that's no mean feat with the shit I carry. Got a trip down that way in January if your keen. Go to "planning trips" forum, you'll find it. They are reliable trucks though. I really punish mine, I carry the spares, but she always gets me home. That's all that counts.

That's not saying much. My neighbour's nissan 4X4 would go through the same car parks and shopping malls my 40 would go through no problem.
