Hi All,
For those interested I took delivery of Chris M's (now
mine :-) sensational GUTD6 on friday, after a slight change in plans I flew to Brisy on friday morning and drove the vehicle
home, left Brisy friday arvo about 3.30pm drove through to Moree that night and then
home to FT Gully by about 9.00pm last night (sat'dy night).
approx 19.5 hrs road time.
I don't think there's any use in posting any economy figures because I made far too much use of the loud pedal, especially up hills when the overtaking lane presented itself, I was like a kid with a new toy, went for a short ride today and the adrenalin levels have returned to a more sedate level.
I couldn't believe how
well the car goes, Chris needs to be congratulated on setting up such a great car, the engine performance is magnificent and the ride on the 4inch heavy duty Lovells and EFS big
bore shocks was great, a little stiff but I was carrying nothing but an overnight bag, so with a few tools/slash camping equipment it might "soften" a bit (obviously all black top) I had every intention of swapping my 2inch Kings & Konis from my old rig with his set up to give me a more "city friendly" car but I don't think I can make myself do it now, obviously there will be off road advantages + it looks great.
Oh and the purrrrr from the 3inch mandrell, Plus the Pioneer sound system the VDO in car nav.............oh how I could go on, needless to say I'm a happy chappy.
Thanks Chris for taking the day off work on friday to help things go smoothly, your continuously ringing phone obviously meant you were busy.
Happy Days........Browny.
P.S.Chris is coming down next week and might be available friday arvo/night for a lager or three so maybe we could have a mini EO trip to a local booser (all welcome) or maybe a bbq at someones place?? Crazie???? surely your place is good for a barbie:-), or Jimbob???
