Poll: Main purpose of your Hilux
Hi There,
I am just curious of the "demographics" of the forum. What is the main purpose of your Hilux?

Re: Poll: Main purpose of your Hilux
then off course:
What did yu buy it for, but what is it being used for ... ?
Mine was bought to overland/see SA. But the reality is that I mostly do trips that can be done over a weekend, longer if it is a long weekend. With only the occasional leave allowing me longer distances.

Re: Poll: Main purpose of your Hilux
Ubuntu in my opinie is dieselfde as a maatskappy se "mission statement", word net genoem om jou samewerking te kry waneer hulle logika so flou is soos Cassie se radio batteryeOu vale1 wrote: Om Ubuntu deur Afrika te sleep met die magtige Lexus, maar al wat oor is ,is maar 'n windgat drag hier en daar voor hy kook!
Wat die Lux betref, dis 'n derde voertuig bedoel vir naweek trips, visvang of 4x4 roete, en so nou en dan werk toe as ek te lus raak om sommer net met hom te ry.

Re: Poll: Main purpose of your Hilux
My Hilux was maar eers net skool geld. Het baie geleer oor 4x4, enjins en dat spesifieke geluide spesifieke betekenisse het (van diffs wat sing, tot briek adjusters wat squeak, propshaft vibrasies, al die early warning tekens). Watter olie om te gooi, en om te onthou om gereeld olie te kyk!
Now I just enjoy my lux for overlanding! Got engaged in one!

Re: Poll: Main purpose of your Hilux
There should be one more activity that should have been included:
that is: 'Day to day use'.
For the past 20 years we have no other vehicle other than Hilux's; today my s/cab and my wife's d/cab. The d/c is our daily run-about, the s/c mainly for our travels.
Have no desire to have anything else!
