Dodzee, Your rig is the one I was hoping to see in action. I don't knoe if you are going road legal or not, but if you do, and you are down this way, please look us up and we shall go for a play in some sth island high country. (this is a genuine offer, not a dig, I really would love to see your rig doing it!!!)

I knew there was a bit of rivalry surrounding the different makes but gawd, the mud slinging between vehicles rather than with vehicles is a wonder to behold, :shock: he he, I’m lovin it!!! 8)

Which reminds me, I must point out that, 1 of the vehicles I towed, had lockers, compared to my 2 open diffs :-D And no lift, or mud tyres, just A/t's :-D

lol

Ah but elmo I'm sure a 2 wheel drive honda civic would have towed me out of where I was as I was really only hung up on my diffs due to lack of height(which no amount of lockers will fix). You forget to mention to these people there was a twenty metre rope which lead to good ground to tow from, also I had blown a CV and was only in 2wd and a honda would have still towed me out by my reckoning :wink:

Also I believe there is a photo of the nissan and the isuzu both on the end of the toyota :lol:

AH, yes, that is true, and was pointed out earlier, I wasnt the stuck one though. I could have pulled him out of there easily, with a snatch, but I wasnt in a good place to give a gental pull.
