What do you use your 4x4 for outside playing? Here's a pic from the other night moving hay and straw for Sarah's dogmeat... err, sorry.... horses 8-[ :lol:

Had the local garage chic comment this morning on Trug :shock: .
"Are those mud-club stickers just to make you feel its okay to own a 4x4, even though it never gets muddy?"
I explained she never sees it muddy as the local garages (inc hers) have turned me away from the car wash on a few occassions, so now it gets washed at home.
I invited her for a ride in my 90 anytime, she soon stopped scouling and a wee smile appeared :wink: :wink: (Think ive pulled).

Ah, so *that's* what you are meant to do with 4x4's when not playing with them :lol:

mine gets used for work everyday, its a mobile workshop for myself (not work) carry far to much stuff in it, but its just convinent, gets used as a van for all manner of reasons ( probably because it is a van :D ) and im the local breakdown service for my mates and trailor tow-er when they have crashed or bought someother non runner.
defenitly gets put to good use!

Mine gets used daily as a dog transporter :lol:

Mine's the village "bogged vehicle" extractor.
To date it's done two 4x4 building site fortlifts, a 7.5 tonne lorry and Transit full of dog food for the kennels up the road when the van skidded on ice and nearly went over the cliff, only the wire fence saved it!! :shock:
This one was a bit out of my league though! :D

Talk about 'digging yourself a big hole'!!! How did they manage that??
-
The few times I'm allowed off-road in it I'm under strict instructions not to "bend" it cause the wife needs it for towing the pony.

why is your wife licking the horse :lol: :?:

My Disco gets used for everything as it's my only vehicle. Family, Work, B&Q, Tip, off-road, also as my main mode of transport for shooting/lamping/deer stalking/mobile hide, and personnel carrier when we do the SAS Survival weekends.
Generally nearly every part of my social life has an "anti" group or organisation setup to shut it down. :roll:
Roll on next year when I get a new car for the family, then the Disco becomes the "SUV" - Sole Utility Vehicle. :twisted:

Digging drainage ditches in a field which is mainly peat bog and just sank!
They got it out the following day and carried on digging. :wink:

She's not - she's complaining that she's *too hot* (cue obvious jokes here) :D
She also demanded that I don't publish that photo on our website (technically I haven't so no rules broken there - right).
-
Mine mainly gets used as a farm hack and my transport to and from work.
Photos taken a couple of weeks ago whilst bailing. Had to use the landy and flat bed trailer as the tractor broke down, sorry about the quality from my mobile.
Got a bit scary after 25Mph started bouncing the landy. The last picture the stack went a bit wrong had to restack the back end.
