Thanks Nino,

We almost overlooked the important stuff (Pajero's dont need recovery equipment, I think its more so we can be good samaritans, to others on the trail that get stuck, like patrols or hilux's ect) :twisted:
I got a gas fridge that will no doubt come in handy, and some braai equimpent also.
