I am sure we have all brought a vehicle with an extra switch or mod or whatever and wondered what this switch does, is it working properly. etc..

This is my reasoning, the ute is just too highly modified for me. If I bought it the first thing I would want to do is to strip it down and rebuild it so I know what the vehicle has and hasn't got.

The nature of buying a modded vehicle is that you research it before you buy it. IMHO anyway, thus you gain the knowledge and understanding of exactly what you are driving. So saying, being in the auto industry, I believe half the fun of having a modded car is the agony you have to go through to get it to that point. You know the usual parts dillemas, breakages and other general stuff ups all join together to make you absolutely adore your car. Even so, the first time I saw that ute I was like, "That's just damn sexy!" And I hadn't even looked at the driver!;)

I'm hopeless at other things that people on here do with aplomb, e.g., Disco Ute, Disco White, et al. (Hmm, have I spelt their names correctly? :D )

I never (I hope) rubbish people in a derogatory way unless they do it to me first.

I really appreciate the knowledge and skills of people on this forum and I try to think of them as friends with whom I can have a bit of campfire fun.

Everyone from this forum whom I have met has been great. LRs do give us a wonderful sense of camaraderie.

Ron I know that you're just taking the ****, just had to comment. I can't help myself ;) :)

Yes one thing that the LR fratenity is void of (thankfully) are overbearing knobs who think they know everything and try to tell you there way is the ONLY way. Toyota drivers fit into this catagory I have disovered over the years of owning my Rangies (just go to Overlander forum of which both of us visit from time to time).

Anyway, keep up the spelling Ron. Like yourself, I don't start on anyone unles they have a crakc at me first (anti-LR comments on OL I can live with, it's when they rave on and have little knowledge about what they're taklking abouut is what makes me angry and offering so-called advice without getting there facts right to start with).

Regards,

Trav
