dezz mirin gixxers

I hardly ride my bike these days :\

[blah_blah]

thinking of just getting a tuff looking hilux or similar 4x4 for both work and everything else. new sr5's are too damn expensive!

i want the full off road look (flood lights, massive tyres, lifs, bars etc) but still have decent space in the back and not cost over 30k...

older model hilux/patrols are still nice

other suggestions?

We'll if your getting a car for work. You could salary sacrifice and not pay FBT Tax depending on your choice of vehicle.

Just sayin

[dezz]

That's what I'm getting when the time comes

[Mohsen]

I need a payrise, this whole train shit to the city is annoying

momo just put a big turbo engine in and drift teh f**ker

Nah gonna be a nice cruiser with a bit of punch.

Got some dudes coming to see the 34 this week so fingers crossed I'll have a half cut I can pull some bits off soon,

Marry me.

No..

always reminds me of an old school adidas logo

wtf else is there lol

Haha they are all decent cars, but just commenting from a gearbox point of view. Problem with the utilities is people expect too much from them and treat them like 4WDs = break easy. Um...Holden Rodeo? lol

The Navaras are quite nice overall.

Thought 27k would be illegal these days

Must've been + commissions surely?

yeh plus commision after 3 months probation.

dont you sign a contract saying salary? Surely in the contract it would mention the 6month stuff?? if it didnt, isnt it possible to take them to court over misleading info?

thats how i found out. the contract was in the first day, and i questioned the lady about it and said what is this.. she said it shouldve been explained to you etc..

Cool, don't forget to change the oil at 1000km and sort out your clutch drag.

clutch drag is sorted.. there was (surprisingly) too much travel with the SS shaft I used. put the old one back.. made some adjustments to the pedal.. its all perfect now.

Birds where do you work? Gearbox rebuilders?

Indeed. Rodeos are too small

New colorados coming soon should be interesting

Decided to get a Nissan X-Trail, that way I can throw the mountain bike in the back and live a more outdoorsy life.

Let the vehicle hunt begin.

+1

ya but 60K...

if you looking 25K

Check a Turbo D Bravo, they were most comfortable to drive in my books

the hilux is unbreakable but to get it to that stage they are very agricultural (but being on a farm that was fine)

older rodeos are ok, older navaras not so much newer hell yes but your paying for that as well.

ford courier..forget it

triton, ugly as hell..

all ones I drove were 98-04ish models either diesel or TD.

[alr33x]

60k fk me thats a fair bit, i wouldnt have a clue just sayin they look nice.

[emts]

Yeah my old man went in to check them out thinking of trading the hilux.

they did end up with the new tiguran for the old lady tho instead.
