and these are some links to some interesting pictorials (because i don't know thai).

put this in "tech" because one of the Sportages has some interesting tube and fender work as well as the fact they are carrying massive rolls of PVC out to the boonies to hook up a well water pump.

will post more as i come across good stuff.

** from another thread:



** looks like the same trip as the first link:

and a pic of the fender/tube work Sportage, with Toy Landcruiser front axle and suspension:



link to a grueling trail run: be sure to check out all 6 pages.

and an obstacle course comp thread with the same guy competing that was a year or 2 ago, with the same Sportage, minus all the doors and other junk:
