COLODISCO, I definitely like that better than any damn roof top- tent, much easier for an old man like me to climb in and out of and you can unhook it and use it as a base camp as well. Even got a roof mounted a/c unit, that is ganster.

Speaking of gangster, is that a 944 beside the Discovery? I used to have a black 86.5 928 in my garage until I was laid up for a couple of years and the wife traded it in on her damn Explorer.

That is a sweet combo, a classic Porsche and a solid Discovery. Sounds like the best way to go in my arrogant as usual opinion. Great pics of a great Disco used like it should be.

OH and as far as my comment about Alaska, my sister married a Native Eskimo Indian and they moved back to his homeland for about ten years back in the 80's when drifting meant something different than it does today.

They had a cabin outside of Anchorage somewhere. They had huge vegetables in the summer, but they also had some occasion bear experiences. I guess it all depends on where you are up there.

I am sure it is unlike anything else you can experience until you actually go there.

Any of you guys ever see the pics on the web of the girl who travels all over the continent in her DORMOBILE? It is an old version of a special use Land Rover Original that was produced on a limited basis. It has a pop up roof hinged on one side, that is decked out for sleeping and such. It is awesome.

Also how many of you are familar with Bill Burke and his style of LR usage? Just thought I would ask. Who knows his Motto? (PM me if you know it and I will tally the results)

Sounds like most of our newer guys prescribe more to the Bash and Crash Method, or the Lift it Then Flip It Then Strip It School of Thought. That is better than lowering it putting 22's on it and make it a Drifter with Nitrous Oxide I guess.

That's alright when you are young and spry, but not for us Old Rednecks, That ladder would suck in the middle of the night when you gotta pee real bad, unless you just let it fly from up high.
