I think you're are forgetting Funky that your family is going with you.
If you are lucky Mrs Funky will let you pick one from "Surfin in the morning, kiting in the arvo, a beer or a small campfire.
Also it will be unlikely that she will be that generous every day and from experience as the camping trip progresses the less generous they become.
Hey I'm not THAT stoopid (usually
)
Am planning seperate trips with
and without fam.
Ha ha - even without fam I'd be lucky to get my chicken wings rolling over for a surf and a kite in the same day. Bout as likely as Christina Hendriks ringing me up for a booty call!
BTW - it is
Ms Funky to you Slacko.
She is very picky about her independance (and mine!
)
forester is one of the only softroaders that will go most places a real 4wd will go
Spot on about the Forester. Surprisingly capable.
I'm not a bush bashin kind of guy (unless Christine does call!
) and the toy AWD is wifey's. Took it up the Pemberton dunes recently and was
really surprised.
Only needed a snatch/tow at the very last bit coz my bro in law decided to park his Prado right in front as i was charging up with pistons screaming and denting the bonnet from the inside.
Have shovel - will try.
looking forward to it.
