WayneD,
How does one break a transmission? - does not sound cheap, nor much fun...

lots of driving in places like Ehh Hapton State Forest 
Covered under LR warranty. The vehicle has done lots of off roading but just went into limp mode the other night and had no power off the mark. It was alright after getting a little speed up and switching on and off rectified the problem (temporarily)
Might also have something to do with runiing it in on the GRR. Take the road less traveled.

Do they have any idea what actually failed. Generally they have been pretty bullet proof.  “There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely gamesâ€

Andrew dont know at this point but will find out when I pick it up. This one will be run in during the Hampton trip.
No hassle from LR which is pleasing.

One section down to the Fish river has a few branches but nothing too overgrown.
You have reminded me, I bought some of that paint too and have not used it, might try it out this trip, its just sitting around. Take the road less traveled.

Ok Folks - I have decided to stay in the Hampton Pub on Saturday night instead of camping, as I now have my two brothers coming with me.
This means I won't have to take tent, annexe, mattress, sleeping bags, stove, table, chairs, food, and so on. Also means I can have meals cooked for me, beers poured for me, and stay warm.
Cheers,
Rob
