Boy G Expert Date registered: Feb 2007 Location: Bushveld, South Africa Vehicle(s): Diesel G's: 617A and 602 Posts: 1683 | RE: Elephant in the camp Hey Michael that's cool but your ellies have winky little ears. Ours have big ears and you can't drive them like yours. And ours also have diff locks on both axles. And that pipe hanging from the animal on the left hand side can't syphon diesel. Freek - there is the 290. Man that thing worked a treat in that sand. I'll post on the SA site re heat and fuel consumption and tyres and where to get good water and cold beer.

Jonathan Joseph Expert Date registered: Oct 2006 Location: Charleston, South Carolina Vehicle(s): 2004 G55 Posts: 1538 | RE: Elephant in the camp Spots, Do you know of any references to the effectiveness of those seatbelt harnesses for dogs? I've seen a bunch of stuff over the years about incorrect seat belt use sometimes being worse than no belt at all (at least on humans) I'm a big believer in belts as I've seen what happens when humans are ejected from cars, and I do worry about the doggie. Sorry for the thread hijack, PM me if you want. Jonathan | ||
