Cool, nice bull bar!

What a trip. Talk about a great way to save your campsite.. lol

Pretty impressive, and, all in all, $150K US isn't a bad price, for what other stuff is going for!

-H-

I don't think you would go very far in a month with only a 100 L diesel tank. Most long range Patrol tanks are well over 120 L and most carry at least two extra gerry cans of diesel doing trecks. I wonder why they also gave it a 100 L petro tank? Perhaps that was a typo. But yes, a very nice rig all in all.

That 100L is extra fuel in the domicile part of the rig. The truck itself has a pair of 300's on it.

From the ad:

"The truck carries 600 ltr of diesel in two 300 ltr tanks, one on either side of the truck, giving the vehicle nearly a 2000 km range."

:Wow1: And to think I just picked up my new glasses yesterday!

I do like the wheel on the Roo Bar. If you see that coming up behind you it pretty much says get out of my way.

it looks like he took the bull dozer approach to the front angle question.

Gotta have something to go to Home Depot for a couple of sheets of plywood.

The Mogs date of mfg is 1990 so no US import likely

It looks like the guy used it for his business too, towing? There are amber flashers on the roof. Maybe a slick way of writing off expenses? I don't know how the tax laws are in New Zealand.

Maybe I should start a towing business.

Man oh man 3 spares for the rig and 2 for the camper!
