@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!
