@Inorganic thank you very much! She was dirty as hell and looking too good after a fresh detail not to share.
This truck eats up high alpine 4x4 passes, Canyonlands red rock, and tight overgrown trails to reach native cutthroat and brook trout in the summer time. Can’t wait for the snow to melt!
-
@SourPower that just warms my heart to read. when you have a rig like yours you gotta get out there and live. Given what you said it seems like you've chosen some smart mods: extra gas/water, winch.
-
@SourPower this is my 96 FZJ80 Land Cruiser. It is OEM triple locked and mostly stock - but an absolute beast. I am constantly in awe of how capable this rig is off the lot. I try to push it to its limits for camping, exploring and general shenanigans.
-
@Inorganic so sick, I would love to own an 80 series some day. They are by far my favorite Land Cruiser.
-
@SourPower yeah the 80 is hard to beat from the capability perspective and it's cozy to boot. Quite slow and relatively easy to work - luckily the following/community is quite robust and there is lots of data out there to devour. Last of the legendary front/rear solid axles. I wish we could get some of the Land Cruisers that are sold in the AUS market over here in the US.
-
I've got a thing about the mad Renault 5 Turbo, and I was tempted by a Clio V6 back in the day, only it didn't have enough leg room for me. Anyway, they've come up with an EV sequel.
It's even got a suitably practical boot. It's got in-wheel motors, so no axle to accommodate.
The only problem is that it's going to cost a lot. I've heard anything from £120K and up.
-
@SourPower let’s wheel this summer! By which I mean, me tagging along with you
we should link up with some other wheelin pals of mine and get after it. -
@mclaincausey so down! I’ve got a great spot to bring You & Hattie with some fun 4x4 and epic cutthroat fishing.
-
My old one first, and now its replacement. The dog needed a bigger space!

I like the numberplate!

My Bulli for my Bully
A leather seat had to clear the place so that Kurt could travel according to his status…
-
@ConBu That’s awesome! Beautiful blue too. I wish they sold those in the USA. I love the old Westfalia vans. Kurt looks like he’s ready for an adventure

@Danimal506
The real Bullis, Made in Germany, are unfortunately no longer produced. Mine was the last one our dealer delivered. The new ones now come from Ford, Turkey, based on the Ford Tourneo Custom. -
@ConBu ahh interesting
