stanski Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Was behind this thing last night - think its a Dodge - damn thing was huge took up the entire inside lane had a fat exhuast and twin wheels on the rear axle with extra widened arches! very 1970's!(before anyone says we were stationary when the pic was taken, I aint stupid!) Is it like yours Stew? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted January 7, 2011 Author Share Posted January 7, 2011 Thats a big Ram Stan! Can't remember the model number but it's standard! Ok, I picked up one of these on Tuesday Same colour as this but this is a stolen pic as I haven't taken any yet.... It's the Aventura model with all the toys. Nav, heated leather, cruise blah blah blah! Looks the same as this inside and mine has the same hard cover on the back just now too. Mine had a bit of bling on it some of which I'm removing..... 6 pieces off within hours of getting it! Still quite a few pieces to go! It also has the MT tyres that I put a pic up of earlier.

Stew Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 Does it fook! We'll see how much diesel it chews before resort to tuning it to maximise mpg. Ace outfit. I like it! I bought a bad ass real cowboy hat in Houston a few years ago so I might well wear it one day!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a fan of bling rims on jeeps. Standard fit 20s ok but not bling aftermarket stuff! I do like A bars and Roll bars though! Mine has standards 17s with oversized MT Tyres. I thought I run over a can yesterday but I picked a fiat 500 out from between the treads..... If I make a mistake on the parking a whole village could be wiped out!

Stew Posted January 10, 2011 Author Share Posted January 10, 2011 11 pieces of bling now removed. 8 to go then I'll be happy!!!! I think it's looking better for it. I found the bling on a website and it all seems decent quality stuff. There is about £400 worth on there!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beau Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Not a massive fan of Nissan but they do make some nice 4x4's, especially the Titan, which I think is only sold in the US. However I have a Toyota Landcruiser, Reliable, still running strong and never let me down, with 150,000 on the clock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted April 21, 2011 Author Share Posted April 21, 2011 I LOVE the Titan. The Land Cruiser is great, I looked at a newer one but it was tatty as hell for the money they were asking. Here is me with 'my' landcruiser when I was working in Algeria That pic is actually on the dunes of the Sahara desert. I like playing in the Mud and having decent road manners. The Navara is brilliant at that. Especially on KL71s! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 Your covies are too dirty Stew, did you fall over? They were clean ones! I was just there commissioning wells so to be honest they were way too dirty for what I was doing there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
