Yesterday was a blast, 7 KJ's and a WK CRD.

Funnily enough, 4 CRD KJs and 3 Petrols !! :P!!! Listening to 4 CRD KJ's idling around was quite funny - every know and then they'd all idle in perfect harmony !! lol!

I always remove my front for the trails, but keep it on for road and sand driving.

Nice comments on the Aussie board, real positive. It looks like you guys had an awesome time, and I would love to go wheeling in those exotic locales. The lush scenery, rugged trails, and variety of KJ's were amazing to see. The pictures were excellent as well, with some of them looking like print quality poster shots. Very nice! The second pic is just beautiful. Nice Run!

Nice run you guys. The countryside reminds me of the Diamond Beach/Taree area where I stayed a few years ago.

wow 5K ? that's a bit steep.

4x4ing just gets better in the cooler months, more people come out to play and the Hot coco flows.........The scenery is beautiful around Winter, misty mountains and thick dense fog in some parts.......

If it was that to go both ways, I might consider it some year, but at that price, I could buy, then sell a KJ.

That does look like fun! How is that snorkel doing for you? Looks like you had some time to use it.
