Thanks Bob.

I've got a 2014 Land Cruiser Troopy series 78 in Australia. This year's model comes standard with cruise control. Does anyone know if it can be retrofitted to my 2014 model? Yes, I could ask Toyota Australia, but I'm out of the country now and thought maybe one of the forum members might...

I don't know it it would work for you, but google Lock Alarm. Its a cable with a siren. Not only wilt help secure the tent from sticky fingers, but it should wake you up with the siren. I 'm been considering getting a few for those "just in case" situations. Good luck Martin

So Nik, are you going to Wengen because you're homesick for mountains already? I would have thought, based on your pics, that Bhutan has more than enough :-)

Not that I have one, but what in the world for? Some interesting, secret project? :)

The picture of the donkey reminds me of my LC 78 with 4.2l 6 cyl engine in South Africa. Its not fast but strong as hell. No turbo, common rail, ABS, etc, just totally reliable mechanically, can be fixed by any bush mechanic, and I think if needed, could even run on elephant pee. :-)

For the latest news that I have read (2016), the LC will have some modifications made so that it meets the 4 star safety requirements of the mining sector. Lateral airbags, cruise control, and stability control. Its not as dramatic as one could think, and if that is all that's required, I...

And what's the other option if not Trump? Hillary? Now there is someone with a lot of baggage, and that's only what we know about. November elections will be interesting to say the least.

Welcome Dani. I'm tempted to start a poll to see what the replies would be if it was necessary to chose either the car or the wife ! :-)

Welcome from one newbie to another !

Adolf, I am impressed, not only by your collection, but also the atmosphere of the man cave. Congratulations!

I get the impression that there are quiet a few jealous wives/partners/GF amongst LC owners :-)

Nik, thanks for the photo of Bhutan from above. Beautiful ! BTW, have you gotten used to yak butter in your tea? :-) Martin

Pets have names, like Fido, Spot, Blacky, Flicka, etc, so why not Cruisers? I haven't given mine one yet; still waiting for inspiration. Who has given their Cruiser a nick-name, and why? Come on, be honest !
