What did you do to your 120 today?

My brother just clocked over the million mile mark in his VW van (a diesel taxi) That's 1.6 million kms.

Most of our trucks at work are well past the 1 million mile mark, the one I mostly drive only has 300 thou on the clock, mind you its only 18 months old.

Cheers Andrew

The old man had a HR holden station wagon with a 186 in it. That did over 1 mill KM towing a trailer most days with his brickie tools and cement mixer. Much better than my D4D which failed to reach 80,000.......

Did you get a picture of the ODO at 111,111 ? My missus thinks I am weird when I do that sort of thing

Let us know when you hit this mark




Cheers Andrew

A number of years ago I tried that trick.
111,111kms with 111.1 on the trip meter was the aim.

Screwed it up and the trip meter didn't get to 111.1 in time - still pissed about it years later!!

Me to Where did you mount the Solenoid box?

I made up a cool little bracket that mounts it inside the bullbar, down next to the clutch lever. Nice and out of the way!

Yeah it took some concentration to reset the ODO at just the right time, glad to hear I am not the only one that does these things or gets excited by milestones or cool number patterns on the ODO. I was driving Trish's Rav when it clocked 123456, but I forgot to look and get a picture

Yes, ODO OCD here I tink. In the good old days I was known to beep the horn each time the ODO ticked over to the next 10,000.

I also used to be indecisive, but now im not so sure.

Fitted this pair of accessory sockets to the back of the centre console and tidied up some other wiring in the console.

I love this stuff too. I was stoked to be between Birdsville and Beetoota when my old Prado hit 300,000. I was able to stop and take heaps of photos standing on the roof celebrating

It pulls straight off, 10 second job to remove. I did similar awhile ago, details in my rig build.

Steve there is room for a GME UHF remote mike radio head unit to fit behind that panel, as that is where my unit is located with a speaker panel cut in over the top for sound clarity, some where there is a pic on a P/P thread of my install.
