I have had to do my bit at the Kindergarten that I and my wife work at, I am their fixit guy/handyman and today I had to take the post hole shovel plus the crowbar.
I made good use of the anchor points to keep these projectiles at bay as you can see the lauch pad was the back seat folded down and the direction was straight through the windscreen.

You lost me at Ford Dave…

The plastic side steps were rubbish and the low roof height made getting in and out with a hard hat on impossible.
Plenty of height inside to wear one but stupid that I had to take it off to get in and out.
Such a big vehicle with so little room.
They only cost $82,000 but way short of the Grenadier specs.

Yesterday we took a day trip to Wissembourg in northern Alsace. The old town is picturesque and we had a good lunch at Café Rebert.

In the late afternoon we drove back to Germany and met up with @Pat-Ard. It was so much fun.

That was a nice visit - we have to repeat it.

I don't know that unboxing counts as doing a thing, but these came in the other day from Agile Offroad. They are 1/4" iron for those who want added protection for your diffs but who do not want or need skid plates. The kit includes new bolts and a gasket.

Last year on my Outback trip I visited the Bullo Shire in the middle of nowhere. A couple of images and a link to more images at my Blog. That is freshly laid bitumen in the first image. On the map the X marks the larger area I was exploring.

Bullo Shire – Outback Queensland

During the Eromanga trip in 2024, The Doc visited the adjoining Bullo Shire. He are some images from Outback Queensland, Bullo Shire. Back to travel is a big part objective of The Doc’s rehab…

In anticipation of the imminent deliveries, what did you do with your Grenadier this weekend?

Tell the community and share the love, and pictures, lots of pictures.

This thread will remain locked until the first member tells me they have taken delivery.

 

[TheDocAUS]

The thread shifted from what you would do, across to what you did do - after the cars arrived.

This stuff is the best i've found for getting the plastic trim on the ineos go from that dull gray to its original color.

I don't know why but on my grenadier the trim seems to age unusually fast. I also have some sap from trees that landed on my car, not to hard to remove from the paint (i ceramic coated my car) but it really discolors the trim. This stuff to the rescue.

Look at this pic. Car has been just handwashed and dried with a leaf blower. Look at the plastic fender flare on the front drivers side. Its been etched from tree sap or something that splashed on it from the road. Regular washing of the car doesn't get rid of it.

2 minutes for the trim restore:

I did all trim pieces and the bumper. Looks really good.

I'm usually not into the whole got to detail it a lot club, but the gray plastic just didn't sit right with me so i decided to do something about it.
The car was super messy after all the rains we've been having and as you can see i have to park under a tree.
I have ppf on top of the hood and the sides, i put it on last august and its holding up really wel.
