Why do they always get stolen, written off or die a natural death after you fork out your hard earned cash on the muthers. My Hilux in my eyes drew the final straw when it bleep itself in the country so I sold it for peanuts. Trouble is if it did it a couple a days earlier I could have cancelled the new aussie desert cooler I ordered instead I am out of pocket and out of patience. Isn't it always the way. Anyway I suppose I will have to look at what to get next now. Maybe something a little heavier duty. The choices are many.

een spending heps on it over last twelve mths and it got to the stage that when it overheated in the bush and did the head gasket slightly I had to make a decision as to where it was going to stop so i cut my losses and decided enough was enough. Some cars are just money pits while others give trouble free motoring it's just luck of the draw. Just got to find someone local to give a couple of bits away to now I haven't got it anymore but I think maybe I'll advertise the radiator eventually as it's unopened and cost me the best part of $500. I get it all sorted when the dust settles.
