RE: Getting out there

in Outdoors and morelast month

Those are gorgeous photos. I really like how you were able to bring out the beautiful contrast in them. The truck looks like it's seen a lot of things, but if it is able to take you to these awesome places, then it's done its job well. We have a Toyota Hilux that's been with us for almost 10 years. It hasn't been through wilderness as much as yours, but it is very useful when we go to a farm and bring back produce with us.

Yeah, the truck did a good job. I sold it years ago (it was starting to get too old for my needs) and have upgraded a few times since, but this one was a pretty decent vehicle that took me many places.

I've had a few Hilux's over the years, none of them I left standard though as the standard version of any four wheel drive simply won't do what I need it to do. Good vehicles though, however here they have lost ground to the Ford Ranger which hugely outsells it.

I've heard the new Hilux isn't as good as the old ones as well. Those were hard to 'kill', and it's fun watching the different 'tests' they did to see its durability.

Yep, they're all getting softer.
