Introduce yourself — where are you from and what do you drive?
Name is Danie — based in Polokwane.
Currently running a Land Cruiser 79, built up over 5 years with ARB bull bar and winch setup.
My passion is hiking the Drakensberg.
Favourite place in SA: The Drakensberg in winter.
Looking forward to contributing to this community. Tired of platforms where posts disappear because the wrong person disagrees with you.

22 years of this and my answer to most of these debates is the same: get out there with what you have, learn what you actually need, then buy the upgrade. The number of people with R500k in kit who go out once a year is remarkable.
The best piece of gear I own is not the most expensive — it is my National Luna fridge. Everything else can be improvised or worked around. That one item cannot.
Based in Bloemfontein here — my weekend choice depends entirely on what the Hilux needs — fishing or overlanding.
