Delayed Introduction
Good day all my fellow Hilux Lovers
This is my first chance to introduce myself
I am Ihan van Vuuren, currently living in Vereeniging. My dream was to get myself a Hilux, with my first bakkie being a corsa utility. And then 4 months back i got a chance to buy a 2008, D4d Hilux dc with 98000km for R181 000 from a family friend, so i sold my corsa utility that was only 8 months old at the time. Since then me and my wife have done Berakha and Thaba Monate, and the a few quarry holes, and we are loving it. So i say hello to all

Re: Delayed Introduction
Welcome aboard, Ihan!!
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!

Re: Delayed Introduction
Hi "LUX" guys
I'm Sun Chasers "other half" and have preciously introduced myself but haven't been on here for a while... usually due to the fact that I forget my password... but that problem I've sorted out
Our Hilux "GEM" has taken us many places and our camping set up has changed progressively through the years. We're in our element with what we have now It's awesome!
Will try do some trip reports sometime of our adventures with Gem
Till later,
Wendz
