+Team Benhamtroll Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 (edited) We went out caching yesterday, and finally broke in our 4WD. So, in celebration of that fact, I thought it might be interesting to see what other folks are using to get from point A to point B. For us, it's a 2000 Land Rover Discovery that we picked up a few months back for a great price. Let me tell you, she handles the muck and bumps of the wild country like a dream. The Cache-Mobile! So . . . What do you drive out there? (If this isn't the right forum for this, let me know . . .) Edited April 18, 2005 by Benhamtroll, The Shrink, & Rainbow Girl Quote Link to comment

+Team Benhamtroll Posted April 18, 2005 Author Share Posted April 18, 2005 Very nice, Cruiserdude. Did you wash it just for the picture? It looks immaculate . . . BlueGerbil - how often do you need the snorkel? It's one of those things I've looked at, but I can't imagine I'm going to need it much (not while my Disco is my primary transport, at any rate . . .)

+Team Benhamtroll Posted April 19, 2005 Author Share Posted April 19, 2005 I'd be interested in seeing the difficulty rating on a cache that required one! Quote Link to comment

+Team Benhamtroll Posted April 21, 2005 Author Share Posted April 21, 2005 Many Land Rover enthusiasts here. Nice to see! This is my Cache-Mobile: {DEFENDER} I'm jealous of the Defender. The Discovery II is a solid truck, but the defender is a tank. Is that a cache on the tire? Quote Link to comment

Gernot90 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I'm jealous of the Defender. And I´m jealous of the engine in your Disco I think. Is that a cache on the tire? Yes, it was a drive in cache. Quote Link to comment

+Right Wing Wacko Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Here is my Geomobile parked just a few feet from the cache. Many others hiked straight up the side of the hile to get this cache, but no..... not me! Quote Link to comment
+Mr. 0 Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 These were the only pics I could find right away, and I'm too lazy to scan some. Anyhow the first is my '86 Jeep Wagoneer Limited. I bought it inexpensively as a beater vehicle, since I was putting my other vehicle into a lot of areas that I didn't think it could get out of while caching. The other vehicle is my '96 Ford Thunderbird, and my daily driver. Ironically, these being the only images I could find right away, this is the result of breaking both ball joints while making a turn on my way home from a short cachepedition. Note: A couple of weeks later I found the old stone wall locationless, and used that same wall in the pic for it. Quote Link to comment
Tally Dragon Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 (edited) I prefer the urban caches close to the house. But occasionally I will go after one on my ATV. I live in Tallahassee, Florida and ride in the Apalachicola National Forest. I use a Magellan 330 with a Ram-x mount on the bike. I use the GPS on the bike even when I'm not geocaching to keep from getting lost and to keep a track record of the ride. Edited April 29, 2005 by Tally Dragon Quote Link to comment
Dennisfauchez Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 (edited) I've got a bug that has the same theme as this log... thought U guys might like to check it out (If only the bug hadn't been stalled in Germany by Womoduck) I hope it moves along soon Moutain Goat -D- P.S.

+W7WT Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 What a great looking Land Crusher. I had a 1970 Station Wagon type. Loved it and drove it everyplace. Finally drove it to Alaska and gave it to my Son. About six 4WDs later, I got a 2000 Land Cruiser. Beautiful rig but just too nice to use like I did the 1970 model. Dick, W7WT Quote Link to comment
