Bought a car. Just sorting out finance and a long range fuel tank. It's in Adelaide which works out well as I have some gold mining stuff getting made near Melbourne so will pick it up at the same time.

Is that some sort of doberman graphic on the side?

You're right. I don't understand that Jeep thing.

Yeah it has the pentastar motor. 209kw will be nice. It's going to be 3-4 weeks until I can pick it up.

FYRBALL is pretty good =)

You could just try for "FIRE" - the ball will come when it blows up, plus it fits your occupation!

I suppose fyrball looks a bit like furball at a glance. Not sure if you're into cats that much Shep.

Very happy with the car. Yesterday I drove 1400km and still had a bit of spare time to do a bit of fossicking, even found a little bit of gold.
