We took the Scout up to Al and Heather's place to 'test' it out.
The boys 'oohed' and 'aahed' over it. Well,.. they DID!!.... but in that MACHO way, that only guys do.
I think Al was having fun. Never one to back down from an opportunity, Al got that truck in 4 high drive and ripped it up the hill grinning from ear to ear feeling like a kid again while the other two were a bit more sedate in how they drove.
They found another hill that was a bit steeper than this one and the Scout just glided up that hill too.
Exciting moment for the day as the boys made their final lap heading toward the driveway, Al cut it a bit close and drove over a 10ft piece of 80mm x 80mm steel angle that whacked the passenger side of the truck pretty hard. Scared the heebie jeebies out of Chris! no problem with the small dent. It just blended in with the others. LOL Eh, we're getting it painted later anyway and what's a dent amongst brothers? LOL
We had a terrific time testing the Scout out on a wonderful winter's day.
Well, our next trip is to Gympie, where some of the cars are getting their engines tuned up; and we work out who's taking what.
