Another business trip, flew from Coffs to Mildura via Sydney, then an hour drive to Euston. Sitting on 110 KPH and what do I find putting along in the middle of no where at about 70KPH- a white, dual headlight, very tidy bush Brumby driven by a bloke I'd say in his 70's. He never missed a beat as I slammed on the brakes in an attempt to not decrease teh capacity of his tray, then with a shudder overtook him. In my rear view mirror amongst the mulga, there he was putting on at the same pace, half an hour later the old bloke in his scrubber hat putted through the town in absolutely no hurry at all & ^$%&(( the world attitude. A true Aussie brumby man???

That's where I got mine from, I think there still very popular up that way. Sounds like that bloke drives his so it will last too.

Every Brumby I see seems to be driven by someone 65+ who looks like they bought it off the line.

Incredible.

Awesome. But I was lead astray with the title of this thread - I thought you'd made a surprise purchase!

Good story non the less!

Cheers

Mate the only surprise is that I didn't mind the area, although its nothing on paradise
