    An intro

    Hale and well met All!
    Not yet a lro but seriously considering a 5 seat 110 s/wagon. Well beyond serious to scheming how to get my hands on one. Taken a 110 out for two test drives a week apart. First time out I was more concentrating on how the truck feels on the road. Second time out was more relaxed and I've never felt so 'alive' driving as I had then. Bit naff of a description I know but that's how I felt. Something about the 110 that I never got driving other 4wd's. At this stage of non-ownership I'll most likely be doing more reading of posts than posting. But when I do post I will really appreciate your advice.
    Regards, saddler.

    Welcome to the forum.
    Lots of advice here. Most of it is free.
    What do you intend to do with your Landy once you get it?

    Banjo, Easo, Ausfree, Jason & Karen, and Mick, thank you All for your welcome.

    Mick, what do I intend to do with my Landy? I'm in the south of the ACT so I've got the east north-east rim of the Kosciusko in full view when I walk out my front door. To the south I've got the boboyan road into Adaminaby and beyond. To the northwest is the back road to Wee Jasper and then onto Tumut. South of that there's Khancoban and Cabramurra and swing back to Adaminaby. To the east I've got the Morton and Deua national parks. That's a whole lotta country you got to ship daylight into. So I'm going to need to fitout the fender with carefull consideration because that's some steep and rugged country.

    I fish, bushwaddle (won't say bushwalk as my days of carrying a load over long distance are over), field photography, etc. A colleague at work who's an avid lro had a chat with me the other day and he's given me some links to after market retailers for lr tailored kit. One must is an auxilliary tank to boost the range - there's one that fits up under the rear RH wheel arch and splices into the fuel line for a gravity feed into the main tank.

    Kind regards, saddler
