Chris,Jennifer,my daughter Shelley and her husband Tyler, Robyn and myself are back from our Safari in Southern Africa with our two 1984 110s. (Now in storage in Cape Town for another stage next year). We covered a lot of ground in SA, Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe. No major problems with the trucks. Matilda the green truck covered 7000Km an celebrated her 295,000 Km birthday. Most memorable sections were in Zimbabwe fabulous country but nothing functions. No food in shops, no fuel to be had. Very few other adventurers, deserted game reserves seething with game. Quite an experience.

Rocky Mountain gear on test worked great - it's a tough job but someone has to do it......

Some pictures.
