Lets see some shooting vehicles.. post up your rides..

[Nederlander]

This is our VW with fold down windscreen and removable doors..

[bigfellascott]

Used to have a FJ40 that had fold down screen and no doors - was a great little shooting buggy

My Terios, a daily driver that is deceptively capable cross country. No folding windscreen, but warm heater and cold air-con.

I love that Kubelwagen, very nice. Would love one of those.

[North East]

Holden Colorado (D-Max) single cab ute. I don't hunt on private land much. This is just used for getting from point A to point B in the state forests of North East Vic. It's set for "glamping"....comfortable.

Lifted 2", tyre size changed, Old Man Emu suspension fitted.

That's a great setup North East

I've got a large tarp for it to that I can rig up over the canopy and increase the living area and keep out of the rain over winter .

my hunting rig

....and when I get there is all on foot....bone saw, PLB, knife, T3 Lite .30-06 and boots.

But no need to be uncomfortable when you get back to camp.

[Nederlander]

I guess we mean anything you use to drive to camp or actually hunt in..

Here is mine.......still new. Mitsubishi Triton diesel. I drive it hunting, the wife during the week.

What's with the spotlight on top?

its a lightforce 240mm spotlight on a Tracer mount, the reason it's got the cord wrapped all around it is cause I couldn't be bothered properly connecting it up

And north east is a safe driver to boot.

The old 80 series land cruiser is hard to beat if you're going full size.

Otherwise a 4x4 Hilux with the suspension done can do some serious driving in a smaller footprint.

[zobster]

toying with the idea of a suzuki jimny/serria,

small, light, agile, good on fuel, 4wd..

need to save up and get financial controller's approval first

[bigfellascott]

The little suzukis aren't too bad for a short trip type vehicle, I wouldn't want to do a long trip 4 or 5hrs in one type thing. Owned one and it was very capable with some decent tyres on it (actually flogged all the other 4wds we had on a trip once, they gave me s**t for having a toy 4wd but I was the only one smiling at the end of it, I got through every obstacle that came up, half of them need to be winched a few lost side boards and one nearly rolled, me I just took my time and worked out how best to get up each obstacle as it came up, only other vehicle that made it through without trouble was a range rover with diff locks.

End of the trip they'd all changed their tune about the "little toy 4wd"

You could be forgiven for not thinking much of then at first glance though

True enough until they drive past ya up something you've been struggling to get up for the last 30mins or so

The old 80 series land cruiser is hard to beat if you're going full size.

Just a pain for the burbs depending on your roads/parking spaces is all.

Can't have everything I guess.
