    Yeah

    Thanks Robert (and all) for another fun day out. Certainly had some challenging moments and not too many vehicles would of got away without some battle scars. From memory casualties include:

    My front bumper has a hefty dent
    Rob's back bumper had a crack
    Macaroon1 and Fabes had some extensive side step re-engineering

    Look forwarding to the next one.

        What another great day out at City View. Robert thanks again for organising the trip, I had a blast and the kids had fun too.

        Just a few photos to add.

        Firstly after my 'mishap' with my camera I did manage to pull it somewhat apart and dry it out.

        I left it all week apart to ensure it dried out and put it back together this afternoon. I did manage to turn it on and download the photos but the poor camera has too much dirt and grit in the lens mechanism and is struggling. Still takes photos but doubt it will last.

        Here are some of the shots of the day.

            Hi CMY,

            I can tell you how it will go, and that's very well! There'll be heaps more local trips over the coming months, see you on one of them.

            Cheers,

            Dave

              I will be looking out on the forum for an outing. I want to try out the diff locks and see how they go.

                CMY,

                Yes it will go well. I don't have diff locks and this vehicle ever surprises me where it can go. On the last two trips at City View there was a number of very difficult and slippery areas we traverse and even the Prado's with standard tyres got through.

                Look out for the next adventure and join in.

                        OK, great, I'll consult the household CEO (i.e. wife) and see when she wants to go.

                          Hello PP members.
                          I have signed up today after searching for a 4WD club and coming accross this thread. What a shame I didn't find it last week before your trip to City View. Oh well - thems the brakes. I'm assuming any further gathering would be under the "Trip planning" forum ?

                          Cheers,
