That would be the story behind my truck:

I heard about this expidition. Not quite the bush excitement of Camel trophy (I'd expect) but quite the adventure.

I'll be recording this on my DVR to share with everyone for sure.

Alak good man I was about to post up that some of our friends over the pond should record that and get it out to us here

Sweet... That was really strange to see the pic you put up.. I produced the show and drove around the world in one of the cars the whole way. I was in D2... Which one did you get?

Its not in the US yet but I'm pushing to get it there. Its airing all over the world right now though.. Nice shot...

ArmyRover · 11-11-2007, 08:29 PM

Yeah, I just merged the two threads w/ comments in them together, so some of them may not make sense, but its better then looking at a few different places..

This should be a great DVD!!!!

burgieman · 11-11-2007, 10:25 PM

Sorry, posted it in more than one forum. My bad.

I drove one of the 4 DATW LR's around the world. We definately had some pretty intense driving in parts of the world... Myanmar was the worst road we had on the entire route and it was supposed to be the "Good" new highway. 14 hours to go 50 miles in knee-deep mud... Across the Outback on the Gunbarrel was intense too. no person or car in 4 days of driving..
