Re: Tell Us How Did You Get to Know About This Great Hilux Forum
Hey guys how can you soil our great forum by going off topic and talking such a lot of bush? Did you realise that if you trace the meaning of the word bush it is made up out of two latin words bull-itius shyt-ius?

Ek het begin Mei my Hilux DC SFA 2.8DT gekoop en wou ( wil steeds ) Alucab canopy koop toe sit ek Alucab in op Google en toe kom die site op. Ek dink dit was 'n artikel van een van die lede wat sy eie gebou het. Van toe af kyk ek heeltemal te veel hierna.

Re: Tell Us How Did You Get to Know About This Great Hilux Forum
I used to be a member of a Hilux forum some years ago that was linked to a 4x4 site, I think it was http://www.4xforum.com/ but not sure. Pieter was involved there IIRC and then something changed and we all had to re-register because of lost data ... my memory is a bit vague on the issue. I was'nt too enthusistic at that time and left it for a long time before actually doing "the dirty" just over a year ago and starting as a 'newbie' again.
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Re: Tell Us How Did You Get to Know About This Great Hilux Forum
Andy, the lack of nicotine seems to be getting to you...
The original http://www.4xforum.co.za was administered by Andrew St. Pieere White, as a means of introducing his Info-Maps, Books & DVDs to us as members. Initially, the forum was a huge success and ran for a few years but then fell to pieces as its membership expanded due to lack of moderation and some extremely bad mud-slinging took place. Numerous attempts to get the Administrator to intervene and restore sanity were fruitless and the forum began to die. The database became corrupted before finally drifting off into cyberspace, never to be seen again.
At about this time, Dirk Erasmus decided to start a fresh 4x4 forum and apply the lessons learnt from the mistakes made in the past as guidelines to the new forum, and so the Community Forum was born. At the time, Pieter was under some negative influence and drove a П!$$@П before he finally saw the light of day and sold the П!$$@П in favour of a real 4x4 .
In a desire to learn more about this magnificent newly acquired vehicle, Pieter turned to the Internet and was horrified to find Hilux sites & forums all over the world...... except in the Republic of South Africa. Realising that this was a fatal flaw in the History of Mankind, Pieter, with great foresight and wisdom, established this forum.
The rest is History...
Oh, the original 4xforum is no more, after some characters of a very dubious & devious nature took over, advertising their wares, all of which were totally unacceptable to decent members of the human race.
Capiche?

Thanks for clearing it up Eric ... as I said I was'nt too enthralled by the site, and that whole saga is more than a litlle fuzzy in my memory.

Re: Tell Us How Did You Get to Know About This Great Hilux Forum
Went camping at Madikwe 2007 and met my neighbour who drove a single cab 2,8 Hilux. We got chatting as he had a neatly modified canopy. Not sure what his name is however, something he had on the back of his vehicle canopy was a map of southern africa. He had drawn all his route's travelled on it and was a great point of discussion.
He told me about the Hilux4x4 Forum. Not sure if anyone know's him and his wife?

Re: Tell Us How Did You Get to Know About This Great Hilux Forum
SWAMBO just called and said I have to pay her royalties, due to the fact that so many guys in their Hiluxs' ride up her butt so they can take down the address of the forum from the small sticker I put on the back of her Getz.
I wonder how many have actually joined from seeing the stickers on other luxs?

Re: Tell Us How Did You Get to Know About This Great Hilux Forum
months and months ago, when I started with the Lexus V8 storry a ''friend'' who is dead set against the idea of this conversion, found this site and said go have a look, most those guys who do the conversions end up selling the vehicle couz they are not happy, and these conversions dont work out and cost 65k!!
looked and read and eventually joined!!!
good atmosphere here
great people willing to help here!! thanx to all those that have given me info so far!!
might as well add this
when we were looking for a 4x4, was actually looking for a Hilux with a Ford V6, at the time found none
so we settled for the Courier, and have no regrets, just need a little more woma!!
and hence the Lexus V8 idea
have looked at the Ford and Chevy V8s, been a long story of doing homework on plenty options, still have many questions on the lexus V8s, however looks like this is the way to go for my towing needs!!

Re: Tell Us How Did You Get to Know About This Great Hilux F
I followed a link from some other Micky Mouse forum and landed up here. This in my view is the best on line forum @ present. But then again, it's for the fans & owners of the best 4x4 ever build. Well done Pietpetoors!

Re: Tell Us How Did You Get to Know About This Great Hilux F
Het een aand laat by die werk bietjie op die internet rondgespeel, het toe op een van Pieter se sites afgekom nl. http://www.pietpetoors.com nadat
ek "Laatson" geGOOGLE het. Het gehoor by n vriend van die plek en sy watervalle, nadat ek Pieter se Trip Report gelees het, het ons besluit om
te gaan kamp daar vir n naweek.
Het toe vanaf daardie site die Hilux Forum ontdek, and the rest is history as they say!!!

Re: Tell Us How Did You Get to Know About This Great Hilux F
In 2009 I "recovered" a Land Rover with my Suzuki Jimny.
By the next day some photo's were on this forum about this ..... JIP, Landy and Suzuki makes it on the Hilux forum in record time. :)
I just HAD TO log on to see what all the fuss was about.
A few months later I got my Hilux and Family-Dog "ensured" that I log on here again. :)
Thanks FD

Re: Tell Us How Did You Get to Know About This Great Hilux F
An Isuzu friend promised me a Namibia safari if I acquire a 4x4 vehicle. Searched the Internet. Browsed many forums. This forum's amazing members had me persuaded to buy a Hilux. Then joined the forum and have only being richer for the experience.

Re: Tell Us How Did You Get to Know About This Great Hilux F
From the Overland forum. Someone was looking for advise on his Hilux and the return answer was "check out http://www.hilux4x4.co.za" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;". So naturally I did. Glad I did though as I found my new vehicle on the site and of course have loads of fun checking the site daily.
