    Went collecting rubbish in the 130....

    Well, not really, we dutifully filled out our border permits (that no one cared about) and went for a drive down near Wangaratta to pick up SWMBOs new project, it seems the number of Land Rovers around here is being challenged by Jeeps. The 130 pulled it back up to Yass without complaint although it was a bit thirsty, about 20l/100KM between Holbrook and Colac. I was back to third on a couple of hills but still faster than the semis.

    Colac? Even if you mean Colac Colac it seems a little out of the way for that trip...?? Or am I missing something?

    Really? I wouldn't have guessed. Only been there about a thousand times heading for Coota and beyond.

    Why would I want those two when a CJ10 is a Frankenstein of both, with a little Nissan thrown in for good luck (it's a diesel)
