And our first Suzuki at that!

Never owned one myself (except a SJ410 many decades ago), but had some smaller ones as rentals a few times. They always left me impressed.

Enjoy!

As we are going cross border I had to dig around for Shrek's RC1 form... Thank goodness I still had it...

Change of ownership for the trailer completed... Numberplate will be fitted over the weekend!

Dunno why that is shown as a "quote".

Ek en MD beplan om naweek van 16de recce run te doen met die nuwe wiele. Sal terugvoer gee.

So... in the light of smartphone GPS's being near useless in the Richtersveld and my TomTom Go calling it quits I finally bought this... Hopefully it will guide us when needed.

Is dit n GPS, bedoelende n "regte" GPS?

Sorry stupid sounding question but an honest one
