I went to the Queanbeyan 4wd show today and had a great day. I got to ride in a couple of new cars on the 4wd test track, very informative. I have 2 questions from the day.
There was an impressively cheap Satelite phone for $749 that you could get on pre paid for as little as $20 a charge with 2 years to use the credit. Call costs 90c a minute. It was an Isatphone Pro and uses a satelite in a stationary orbit over New Guinea. Has anyone had any experience with it as far as reception goes?
Second question. Apparently all the new models of Cooper ST tyres are now 10 ply light truck construction. Before, you could buy them in 6, 8 or 10 ply. Could this be why some people love them and others are less than impressed? Those who bought 10 ply were happy and those on 6 ply not. I was told at the show, not by Coopers, that they now only make 10 ply LT to stop the confusion. Any comments on that? A good looking tyre.
Well done by the 4wd clubs who put the show on. Seminars and demos all day. Cheers
