What did you do with your Grenadier today?

Potentially a PIDOOMA:
Plucked It Directly Out Of My Arse/Ass

An oft-used term from my old Govt tendering days...

The ripe old age of 101.

Although, I’d guess only about 2% of the population in Australia would have heard of Howard. Like most other places including the US, the rest of its people have likely never been anywhere near a farm sadly.

Thanks.

Second image looks a like the creek crossing into El Questro in The Kimberley, near the Homestead. Where were you?

I fitted (temporarily pending my sparky fitting this, a rear anderson plug, and my UHF next week) a Narva EX2 20” double lightbar.
Thought I’d share in case anyone was considering it and wondered if it fits.
I purchased bullbar mounting brackets to fix it to the bullbar top tube rather than the base.
I tell you what, it just fits, and the brackets are right on the edge of the tube before it bends down to where it joins to the bar upright. Certainly couldn’t fit anything wider and mount it to the top tube.
I picked Narva in the end for two reasons. Firstly they supposedly have a much wider close range spread (top priority for me) than stedi or lightforce without giving up too much distance (I don’t care what’s a kilometer down the road), and secondly I got them at a big discount to retail price via a friend. Laser at 3 times the price is overkill for my use.
It also has a 7 year no fault warranty if it breaks for any reason and you get a new one.
I’ll fit an amber cover for use in the sea mist of Fraser Island when I head up next weekend and let you know how they go.

What mounting brackets did you use? They look a bit like the brackets I saw at XHQ. Cameron and I used the STEDI Hex brackets,

So far AU owners have managed to fit a single 20 inch Lightforce Viper (me), a 20 inch double row 20 inch Viper (@CBN) and now the Narava EX2 double row 20 inch (you) - on the top Roo Bar hoop. All of them just fitted (bracket choice is critical).

My single row Viper provides so much light, the double even more light. It also provides a lot of light in close and out about 20-30 metres off the road.

We have choices and choices are good.

XHQ like Narva lightbars

Installed all bags and stuff tidy to the molle system left and right side in the trunk.
I am really a fan of the molle system since years. Versatile, flexible, sime View attachment 7867609View attachment 7867610

I was at the field day today with my Grenadier. Technology from old and new times was exhibited and demonstrated. There were a few questions about the Grenadier. When I said that the Grenadier is a robust vehicle also for use in agriculture, I was told that it was far too expensive. No farmer can afford that. And yes, I can imagine that. Many drive their Lada, Jimny, Ranger. I tend to stand out when I drive the Grenadier across the fields.

I will always see more pick ups on the fields - L200, Hilux, Izuzu - cant be beaten for work to price ratio. Almost disposable or they once were, times have changed but the Gren just more of a keeper especially given its starting price
