New TOY replaces Roy...
Some of you have probably read in previous threads that I had taken a decision to sell Roy, my trusty '89 SFA, with the intention to purchase something a little more comfortable for SWAMBO and kids on the longer trips. :|
It took me a good, long time to make peace with this decision, and as Roy drove out my front gates for the very last time on Saturday, my heart was very heavy.........but not for long.
On Sunday, I collected my new truck, and it's an absolute Beaut!
I have yet to see an SFA in better condition, in & out. And it goes like a dream.
Got the family's full approval and looking forward to many happy kilometers to come.

Re: New TOY replaces Roy...
Thanks ouens. I am very happy with the purchase.
Yes this was Kobus' bakkie. He really took good care of it.
Was contemplating an IFS for a while, but my heart eventually won the battle over my head (if that makes any sense at all)
Bluyota? Ek dink nie so nie. Roy is mos after all where it all began.
Now i just gotta get it over my heart to get some mud on such a good looking trokkie

Re: New TOY replaces Roy...
Congrats, Shaun!
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!
