ALLEN W. JOHNSON - DRSS

Into my heart on air that kills
From yon far country blows:
What are those blue remembered hills,
What spires, what farms are those?
That is the land of lost content,
I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went
And cannot come again.

That is one awesome ride! For only 52k it will certainly hold its value a lot better than a brand new Dodge pickup truck for the same price.

For that price they really did steal it!

That one was designed or made by someone who knew a bit about about hunting safaris - three spare wheels, just like my Land Cruiser when going into the Kalahari!

After a few years of participation on forums, I have learned that:

One can cure:

Lack of knowledge – by instruction. Lack of skills – by practice. Lack of experience – by time doing it.


One cannot cure:

Stupidity – nothing helps! Anti hunting sentiments – nothing helps! Put-‘n-Take Outfitters – money rules!


My very long ago ancestors needed and loved to eat meat. Today I still hunt!

Pretty slick!

For me, I wish I could buy a Toyota Diesel like the one PHs drive in Zimbabwe.

They have a fantastic payload, and I'm sure that little diesel engine will last forever.

They don't seem to be available in the US.

The reason the African Cruisers are not available in the US is that they won't pass our emission standards. I would love to have one as well.
