    true indeed, I totally forgot about those red P plates I saw back there...
    I think the 22r will give you enough petrol/gas mileage over there too. its pretty expensive there eh?

    a trip to hawaii ey, haha. That desperate for the 4x4 ey.. :p.
    Yeah, we pay approx AUD$1.25 a litre, which is a quart, so a gallon is four litres, = AUD$5 a gallon. What do you pay for a gallon? Our dollar is close isnt it.?

    For USD40, I got AUD47.

    And my area is about $2.50 per gallon for 87Octane (lowest).


    AUD5 for a gallon?!?!?!!?!?!? well, from what I remembered, aussies get paid more to compensate for the more expensive things.


    my cousin supervises the freight company, he gets $40 an hour, on a bad night.... he gets more than that...

    thanks, the grill is stock btw, the Lux came with it. I want to do something different with the grill.
    The brackets off a 2wd bumper fit a 4x4 bumper, its just the outer brackets that dont reach, as 4x4 bar is wider. Also, the lower bar doesnt bolt to bracket anymore, as it is a bigger bar.
    Not much. Pretty sh!t pay actually.
    Last year i was on $256. Get a pay rise every year.

    bahaha.. thanks man! Its all about the LUX!
    :p the ladies have competition. Haha.
    I want to do a full custom build, but a lot of things may have to wait until i have: a shed to work in, a mig welder, and another vehicle to drive while i work on the Lux. Ah, these things take time.
    :)

    the roll pan looks ok, but i dont think the bottom edge of the tailgate is straight, or the edge of the bed inside isnt straight, because the roll pan sticks out more in the middle, but ill get it eventully. Haha.
    Make you one..? I could prob. I made mine at tafe..
    Ah, yes, Lux will always be there for me. I just put a cold air intake on yesterday, ill see if its any good driving today. :D
