    Another awesome episode. Cant wait for the next episode.
    Ive done those pans in the wet, in an old Landy with my wife and daughters. Very scary, and a old well seasoned traveller who I once knew, who has now passed away, once told me, if you hear the thwack, thwack, thwack of mud in your wheel arches while on the pans you are in trouble. :)
    Looking forward to the next one.
    PS. love the Amarok. I have a serious itch to build a bakkie......hmmmm. :) (dont tell my wife)

      I tend to agree with you - the Cruiser to me wins on 3 fronts: 1. Storage space 2. Sound 🤤 V8 and 3. A built 79 just looks insane!!
      The Jimny for the second trip in a row showed us just how super capable it is!! I love our Jimny so much I find myself grabbing the keys more often than the cruiser
