How agitated do you get when someone else is using your vehicle?, B/inlaw took
mine to-day and i was like a cat on a hot tin roof!, although he is a very capable 4by driver, i had all sorts of things going through my mind.....If it had been the son in/law
complete panic would have set in lol, as he goes through vehicles at a incredible rate ,hence unless its a emergency he has no hope of getting in it.
Cheers Axle.

my neighbour lent me his Patrol fully set up back in 2006 when I sold my business and he insisted that I take his 4X4 to explore the incredible beauty of this country.
Hired an off road c/t and made it past
Nyngan when the engine went up in smoke........
it was the most difficult phone call I ever had to make!
..he then felt bad; thinking he spoiled my holidays; what a great person!!!
..long story short; we are still friends and have traveled many thousand's km together.

Axle, I'm always nervous when I think of the Pocket Rocket trying to negotiate the Coles car park in the mighty Tuck Truck. At a good metre longer than a normal ute and with a turning circle that would make the QE2 blush, it's like trying to thread the proverbial needle. As for the Crown Prince (soon to be newly minted 'Probationary' hell-driver!), until he can stop using the mirrors as a personal grooming tool, he's got as much chance as a one legged frog in a pit full of pythons!
When outback, it's even worse. There are few people I trust to have the knowledge, experience and attention span to be a capable off track pilot. When Tyres are better than $500 a shot and you're a thousand kays into the wilds, yeah you get a little nervous when someone else is driving your lifeline!
Cheers Mick
