Times like these I am ashamed to be called a 4wd'er

you want to feel ashamed to drive a 4x4,

watch car vs wild, any episode.

I die a little inside whenever I see the local Hilux King.
Giant wrangler stickers, 2 massive aerials, two bits of poly pipe because lets face it, 4 aerials would just be ridiculous, twin giant truck stack exhausts, more lights than a brothel at christmas time, and various witty stickers such as "She'll buff" or "Bogan boys".
But I have a little laugh when he stalls it at the lights.

And just why would you be checking out the Brothels Muppet? ;)

I'm not.
I just figured they've got sleazy lighting at the best of times, why should the holiday season detract from that? :D
Tis the season to be jolly after all :lol2:

There,, all fixed for you ;)

But it still doesn't mean Pat can steal railway pins :mad:
As isuzutoo states with the old mine in Tassie,, its sad when people destroy our heritage :( We'll have nothing to go and look at if people keep up this behaviour.

I cant be all high and mighty about this one though...
We did take about 8 spikes from the old Ghan line about 8 years ago, from a washed out section of the old line... middle of a mates property....
But we used them to make a cracker hat/coat rack for a hospital
day room... so we justified that to ourselves that way...

(Basically had about 2 1/2" wide (depth) jarrah sleeper 'slab' about 6' long and 5-6" high, installed dog spikes as hangers, (filed a few rough points but most OK) and varnished the lot! Looked schmick!)

I did the same thing, it was either that or run over them.

He was really checking out the lifted Hi-lux, secretly wishing that it was his. :Rolling:

It is the actions of others that tar us all, and that get laws changed for the worse...

Is he responsible. No I would suggest neither responsible nor accountable (sorry day job mode lol) in this case - no downside for him, and it is not until the kids and grandkids grow up that his actions will cause issues for us all.

Haha - this was not a show I was familiar with (joys of life without cable tv) but youtube left me perplexed - some of the things they were trying, and the ways they solved problems were interesting to say the least, but still left me asking "why?"
