    I was talking to a cocky the other day who was complaining about how much time his wife spends in the car and in town. He said "She thinks that if she lets the oil settles in the sump the motor will rust".

    My binos are made in China and they are damned good and well made (Vanguard).

    10 or so years ago people scoffed at Hyundai, and now look at them. The same will happen with Chinese products.

    Hate when the wife has been using vehicles, go to jump in but the seat is right up against the steering wheel, get that sorted and turn key on and some obscene pop music starts blasting out the stereo at full noise, all rear vision mirrors pointed directly back at the drivers face....

    Luckily we have the same seat position, like the same music (mostly) and it is just a flick of the lever under the mirror to toggle between positions.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    My last hilux (2008) had it's clutch done at 50,000km Put a heavy duty one in, then the motor blew up (not related of course)...

    We have a contractor who has a couple of Fotons for 'boys' trucks. Both have gone well with no issues. Don't get that well looked after. They'd buy another.

    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.
