Thanks everyone for all your input. I've been sitting on this decision for a couple of weeks now and have decided against purchasing this RJ70. I'm going to force myself to be more patient and wait for what I really want, and that is a Troopy. There aren't many in Guatemala, but I know they...
The truck was recently painted so I wouldn't be surprised if there was some minor panel repairs. The roads in Guatemala are pretty rancid, and the driving equally the same. I don't mind the extra body repairs, just because it is so cheap to do here. When I bought my patrol, it was complete...

I'm in the same boat as you. I couldn't find any vendor in Australia willing to ship a swag internationally, at least a swag I was interested in. Superior Engineering has swags made by Ironman on their website, which look like crap if you ask me. I've purchased multiple items from Superior...
