Took a drive out yesterday to Mackenzie Country yesterday for some fishing. We stopped off in Tekapo for some supplies and a SIII SSW pulled up. It was carrying a family obviously on an 'expedition' (back and roof full of gear). The driver got out carrying his mini toolbox and did a walk around doing 'running repairs'.
It really did look the business - but the coolest part of the truck was the dog kennel. Where some people would put a bike rack on the tow bar, this Landie had a steel dog kennel mounted there carring a really lovely Pointer. I'm not sure if it was mounted on the tow bar or cross member - but you get the jist!
Unfortunately I didn't have a camera, so no picks. The other great thing was that also parked up there was a great collection of Corvette Stingrays - it must have been an owners rally. But all the tourists were ignoring the Stingrays - they were all standing around the SIII taking pictures
