PICTURE POST: your favorite off-road shot!

At the moment, this is my favourite image. The car has been knocked off the road (cheating for this thread) but just goes to show why the cars have such a great safety rating.
I was hit from behind by a truck traveling at least 30km faster than I.
Both myself and the passenger walked away without a scratch.

Oh mate, so sorry to hear bout this. Did the truck stop? Hope he's been charged! :yell::furious:

Very glad you're both OK, sure was a big hit. Very lucky you missed the pub. At least you didnt have far to go to settle the nerves lol :iconwink:
 
Camo - :welcome: and thats some serious looking stuff

Rizzo03 - That's still awesome, I've never seen an outback ute (pickup-truck) before, don't think you get them in Australia.
 
G'day camo & :welcome: to ORS.

You're quite correct Red XS, we were never offered the Baja down under :sadbanana:

Regards
Mr Turbo
 
Bcoutback - Whoa man! Totally didn't expect that!

Glad you're ok. Looks like you could almost drive it home without any issues looking at that pic.

Keep us updated on what happens - replacement or repair etc

All the best, not a great way to start 2014 :(

Cheers

^ what bennie said. Glad that you are OK mate. That would have been a ****ty experience.
 
:( So sorry to see this but I must say that you were very lucky to have been in a Subaru for that!

NL - that car looks like a beast!

Here are a couple from recent trips end of last year... Esperance, Albany, Augusta, Margaret River and Tasmania all in 3 months!

Fellow subi, I thought I'd keep him company :)


Harvey Dam Fishing Trip, Boxing Day


New Years Day (Augusta, Black Point) - slept in the car and woke up to this view at sunrise, surprisingly comfortable just putting the driver seat back.


Airing back up from Black Point Trip


Augusta, exploring new tracks


 
Thanks Mr.T, that was a great trip waking up to that view!
