Saw this on another
forum. Just the thing to tow that 35-foot BT now that 21-footers and F trucks are becoming just a little too common.

They had a write up on that truck in 4x4 Australia mag. Should tow the 6 tonnes pretty easily.

That's awsome!!
Conrad has probable placed his order by now!
Speaking of BT towing vehicles...If anyone is interested ........Jay's rig is being featured in the next issue (No 75 Jan 05) of 4WD Monthly in an article entitled "Ships of the Desert"
Think I'll wait for the Twin turbo V8 diesel 'cruiser though.
Cheerio...........Rob

Your a hard man to convince...... you dont need to wait for Toyota to get some real grunt..... F250's are grunt enough!!

Yes, It certainly looks awesome but how will it fit down Oz bush tracks made by L'Cruisers, Nissans and Landy's.?
That's where the real Bush is. (IMHO)
Just today we measured (rear) wheel bases (tyre centre to centres) of my Troopy and a friends F250.
Even I was surprised. The 250 is 480mm wider than the troopy.
To me that equates to a lot of stakes and a lot of too narrow gaps between trees.
This is of course when roughing it without the BT.
BTW does anyone know when the twin turbo Tojo is really coming?
