I am waiting for my number to come up. Finally, my beast is running ok for the last three weeks. Rearing to go!!!

By the way... whose pick up truck is that? Looks nice! Does it come with 4X4?

Rohan,

Pickup belongs to Anand Rao a.k.a. Haryali. Yes it is 4 WD.

Srikanth - this was my first OTR with the Yokohama Geolandar A/T tyres - all the previous OTRs were with Bridgestone Dueler H/T tyres.

Jaggu · 9th June 2009, 16:19

Hats off to you Hrishi. You drove amazing, cool and calm and perfect articulation of gears and pedals!

Do give the truck a nice wash and some tightening job

Red Liner · 9th June 2009, 16:25

HRag you bloody show off! I am so on for the next OTR...

hrag · 9th June 2009, 17:03

Thanks for the kind words, folks. This was my 6th OTR with the truck - only the tyres were different this time.

With the OTR bug biting you looks like you would have to forego you weekend trips to Chennai which is what I was mentioning in my earlier post. With better shoes am sure you would become more serious, waiting to see the crawling truck to match the spidey

Oh i forgot to mention Siddhartha's friend, the one in the brown T and standing on the fender of the CJ when it was down under! Admire your energy & enthu! I know whom to tag along if i ever go offroading

Hey all

Gypsy-Boy · 10th June 2009, 09:50

Gypsy-Boy · 10th June 2009, 09:54

Third batch of photographs.
The Safari is literally making its own road here - This path was a narrow one lane before the Safari made it into a Highway!!

Gypsy-Boy · 10th June 2009, 09:58

Oops hit the submit button instead of the preview - Here are the Safari pics

Gypsy-Boy · 10th June 2009, 10:01

The final set of pics
PS - Moderators I have limited the number of pics to 10 per post to accommodate people with slower connections.
