Here's a few of the rigs I've used. About a million k's on them all together. They all get 20mpg. I'm really liking the 2004 Duramax couldn't ask a whole lot more out of any vehicle and the winter is where I ask the most of a vehicle.

88 4Runner 22re




88 4Runner SR5


2004 Duramax CC

Stephen that is a Sako S491 in 6mm PPC single shot. It is my all time favourite rabbit rifle. Where we were shooting that day IIRC was about 180 max distance. But we did get about half a dozen rabbits off that warren.

Kiwi knowing what you have done to that Brumby I can well believe it is worth more than my cruiser. Oh BTW that property is also the same place we will be taking you fox shooting, so now you know what a small part of that property looks like

Sounds good Pete, what is the best time of year for fox hunting? I'm thinking I will come over next year for the Banana Coast shoot in August........Ian

As you know August will be just starting to warm up a bit so the skins may not be at their peak, but having said that it seems to me that the seasons are slipping a bit so I dare say it will still be frosty at this property. So if you want to take a skin or two should not be a problem. Don't forget to tell Ray that you want to get out as Mike who works for him is my best fox caller so we will need him along. I have already mentioned this to Ray so he should be OK with it. We may have to take Ray along though

G'day Stephen, you know the language then

DAA looks to be a very nice truck you have there. Any suspension mods ?

Yes, the only factory suspension remaining are some of the mounting points for the control arms. But even some of those I have cut off and welded on different ones. But all of the control arms, springs, shocks, track bars, sway bars and links, tie rod and drag link have been modified.

I thought it must have had quite a few mods looking at the articulation it has. I bet you have a lot of great off road fun with it.
