    Get her to take up shooting mate, it would be cheaper in the long run, and you would have the perfect excuse to keep buying more rifles

    On no, wait a minute...you don't need an excuse do you

    The Mitsubishi has the best set up but there are cheaper trucks around to do the same job , You love your girl but the money for the trucks are over priced and you need to tell her that . You could buy a new truck and go to Taranaki and pick up a box for the truck

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Tell her to ride it to events. Isn't that why horses were invented? To get from A to B?

    And just for your benefit Happy, when Josh says A to B he really means Auckland to Balclutha or in other words a really long way.
