Once upon a time in 4WD Ex-Oz land (Last two days) there was a bush trip undertaken by some of the
Melbourne crew.
I have been told and verily believe by an extremely reliable informant that one of the aforementioned crew, who is commonly known as the Member for Terang - Minister for Anything and Everything - also a one eyed Nissan besotted braggart, (worse than a Collingwood supporter) had a spot of bother.
Allegedly, I say allegedly because I am still awaiting the electronic evidence which I will post when at hand, the aforementioned person had to be towed/snatched the full length of a 150 meter bit of mud that all the other vehicles sailed through without a worry.
Now the Tow-ee was a useless 3L Nissan and the Tow-er was an ordinary old 80 series Toyota.
This overweight fat B a s t a r d Nissan was such a problem that it caused the poor old 80 series to have a front wheel drive/joint problem thereafter.
If it was me I would have abandoned that Blue piece of Nissan Chit to the elements.
Then to compound things this so called highly experienced ( he will tell you himself if you stand still long enough to listen) Nissan driver after being extracted from the mud hole, promptly peeled a tyre off the bead, causing other members, headaches, numb fingers etc putting it back on for him.
Geez I wish I was there to see all of this unfolding. Just can't help bad luck I suppose.
I have only just managed to stop ROFLMAO.
Hopefully pics will follow tomorrow unless the subject person mangaes to buy them all to prevent publication (LOL)

No photos = no proof.......
I don't believe the Hon Member for Terang would be capable of bogging a vehicle, short him suffering some catastrophic failure of a vital bodily function (ie: "brain fade").
We all know this particular person has a wealth of knowledge about all things mechanical and is one of the best drivers of a motor vehicle that the big fella upstairs has ever daned to put upon this earth.
Another piece of irrefutable evidence that he 'could' have been bogged is that he was driving a Nissan 3L Patrol.
Okay, scrub that last paragraph......that is an argument for the prosecution; not the defense. hahahahaha

And thank you for pointing out to me that :
" Most vehicles are as only as good as their drivers "
It was very remiss of me not to have thought of that and now that you have highlighted it and brought it to my attention, I must say I can only agree with you whole heartedly.
Oh! he ( the owner of that useless 3L piece of Nissan c h i t ) is definitely the 'one eyed braggart' in this instance. Or so my informant told me.
Apparently one of those galloots that run around with a GPS for this, and GPS for that , all linked to PDA's, laptops etc etc , however this time he couldn't use GPS magic tricks to hide the inadequacies of that thing that rymes with Roo that he drives.
Just hope there is a swag of Pics.

What is this about the power of the front diff of an 80 series. It actually had to use a locker the whole trip,
well nearly, as it had "other failings" in the front drive department. We did have some 4bys for the trip but the 80 became a 3by because it had a locker, otherwise it would have been as good as Baz' 2by Exploder reversing up a
hill out of a drowning in a river.
As you would expect to be the case, where any Moses was concerned the wet and deep didn't bother any to that name........... Nissan or otherwise. He just carried hydraulic jacks for changing
wheels and the like on the less fortunate.

Obviously, the cows are milked, fed and returned to the paddock. Must be raining for both
Timboon residents to be home on the puter.
It would appear that Lucy failed to recognise that the 3L piece of chit was just resting taking on
water so that the oil level would rise enough to be taken up into the engine block. (Just been reading a book by Kurt Johansen[sic] where he was running low on oil and added
water so that the oil would float on the
water and be lifted into the engine. Not sure what happens when the oil and
water mix into one)
Miss Lucy, I'm surprised you missed this vital detail.

Don't fuss about the above two mate, its just 'Dad & Dave' from the Western District 'Banjo county' showing off that they can log onto a computer.
Just a pity poor old 'Dad' had to be told umpteen dozen times that logging on, did not mean throwing a log on the puter and flattening it.
Damn! how remiss of me not to have figured out that oil/
water thing. Just like those 'iron horses' on the rails use to do a 1000 years ago - take on
water and chit every 50-100miles.

Probly shouldn't be on this site Lucy, 'cause I'm more an observer than a Trendsetter.
. A little while back, we took the Rodeo over big red, and watched as a Toyota failed in those last 3m of
young sand. And, perhaps this shows my colours, I was really sad for this bloke. He had another unit with him, and we didn't interfere. We'd spoken to them at Dalhousie Mossies, and heard them on ch. 10. His mate had "BushTrackers" above his 'screen (NO connection to the trailer mob, eh).
So I guess a dick may drive a Rodeo, Toyo, Nissan, or, (at least in one case a Rangie). Met this bloke on the
Andamooka-
Farina track. Lights flashing all over his display. Did our best while he took tea. We left.
. Be gentle, JH.

Jeff
I feel I have to bring to your attention that your vehicle recognition skills are a little challeged.
That vehicle you say failed to make Big Red was definitely not a Toyota, most probably a Nissan tricked up to look like a Toyota in case of embarrasing situations.
Or possibly this admission:
"perhaps this shows my colours,"
really explains the situation - you had a feed of those magic mushrooms didn't you and just thought you were on Big Red.
These Toyota hallucinations happen to the even the best of owners/drivers of 4WD's other than mighty, magnificent Toyotas. Just a jealousy thing that a good Psychiatrist can help with.
I have to stop now as I am going to burst if I keep this up.
By the way you are a trendsetter just by reading and participating on/in the
forum.

Ms Lucy

Good to have early trip reports in Lucy, but perhaps you should know that intrepid trip leader would not proceed up one slope because of the likely hood of his likely explosive front Yota diff. We all were looking on but he spun the
wheels for a while and said 'enough is enough'. He could have gone up it with lower pressure I reckon.
There was an ex-rental Troopy amongst us that one driver observed in his mirror looked like a block of flats swaying around. It did get through though....

Oh! boys, Boys, Boys
(1) I do like the pics and the Nissan Postulating excuses
(2) News flash tonight that a new book has been released called
'A Conga Line of Suckholes'
(News.com.au Quote:)
A book of quotations collected and used by Mark Latham during his public life.
Mark Latham says male culture is in decline, but dinky-di blokes won't have a bar of it, Dan Silkstone writes.
FLAMIN' hell! The Australian bloke is cactus. That's the verdict of former opposition leader Mark Latham, who claims in his new book that the traditional Aussie male has been replaced by a nation of "metrosexual knobs and toss-bags".
(Unquote:)
Well good old Markus nearly got it right, it should have read - "metrosexual knobs and toss-bag Nissan drivers."
ROFLMAO and ignoring all the outrageous derogatory comments about Ms. Lucy.
If you must know they are all true and she is currently recovering from the last bush foray. 95% recovered.

So what was really said in the first post was that the Nissan driver did not have the correct
tyres for the job at hand but had tried to compensate by running them at a reasonably low pressure, and that the Toyota crapped itself when doing a very easy recovery on very a very forgiving surface (mud) while going up a mild grade.
If it had been a recovery up a steep grade on solid rocks it would have been understandable......
Next time swap the
tyres on the vehicles and see how you go...

Gary, it was a tyre named after a certain South Aussie beer manufacturer, but the ultra low pressures pictured above didn't rate. I had a slightly more agressive STT pattern and got through each time. I guess importantly I had a bigger profile tyre as did some others.... Heather has a good video of Moses sideways though with front and rear wheels not following the same track.

Hi Gary
There was nothing wrong with the
tyres, or the pressure(22psi). The recovery was not a typical easy recovery as the vehicle was dragged for some distance. The 80 series contiued with the recovery and the rest of the weekend with minor damage to a little part.
I think everyone there was experienced enough, and there would be no advantage in swapping
tyres.
but thanks for the input..

Moggs I would like to take up that offer, my other cap has red writing so if its red one would suffice, and if its not then we can swap one for two if you still want an orphan one.
I just ordered a set of clips for the trim thats all it needs, nothing broken at all. Whew
The weekend was a real well needed relax for me and thoroughly enjoyed, might have to get thos thread moderated theres some very awful pics on here and hahahaha Craze you didnt know it was my camera hahahaha ahh cest la vie

no worries Bonz, mine have the red writing also - I'll give you the full set so you have some spares.
Good news re: the guard. One of my mates here at work did the same thing - Nissan wanted a fortune to replace the guard - then someone pointed out it just needed new clips - all good.

Hey Lucy,
I hope you've got your team of mechanics all booked in for the whole week commencing 16 October, to work on fixing all the broken bits on the droopy after you get back from your o/seas trip. BTW, you'll also need to book a low-loader to get it back to Mexico.........I'll be happy enough to tow the rotten thing onto the ferry for you and nudge it with my b/bar into a back corner .....also quite prepared to tow the damn thing back off the ferry at
Cape Jervis for you. BUT, I'll be damned if I'm gunna tow the bloody rusty old hulk all the way back to drizzly
Melbourne for ya....NO WAY.
Oh boy; I'm gunna love this...hahahahaha

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm! taking those 'idiot pills' again , and lots of them by the looks of it.
Could you please have the lovely Annette bring plenty of 'idiot pills' antidote so that I can make it through the week.
ie Anzac Bickies.
Its the only thing that will keep me sane enough to put up with you for 168 hrs non stop. (LOL)
