JB (Mammoth)

Post by Mammoth »

Hi guys! I got so excited once I started looking through the website that I didn't even bother to introduce myself. Just couldn't get enough. Congrats on a wonderfull forum. There is a wealth of information combined here and from what I have seen a lot of passionate Patrol owners who do not hesitate to share experiences. So here goes:

1. Name: Johan Botha (JB/Mammoth)

2. Birthday and Age: 2 Dec, 43 years Young

3. Town and Country of residence: Roodepoort

4. Home Language: Afrikaans

5. Occupation/Business: Sales (Telecommunication)

6. Family status: Married with 2 children

7. Membership: SA Nissan 4 x 4, 4X4 Community. Owner Adrenalin4x4adventures

8. Current 4x4: Nissan Patrol 4.5 GRX 1999

9. Current Mods:
- TJM Suspension (90mm)
- SAC stage 1 (Chip, Filter, Branch/Freeflow) 118.9kw 3060N
- 2 x 17" electric Fans/replaced wiscus
- 27/29 MHz combined GME radio
- Roofrack
- Tyredog TPM
- Towing modified "Zippa"
- Garmin Quest GPS

10. Mods on wish list:
- The 140l tank I read about on the forum
- Aftermarket Front and rear bumpers
- rocksliders - the bent runningboards don't look nice

11. Vehicle on wish list: Considering 4.8

12. Previous 4x4's:
- Nissan Sani (Drowned) This was one fantastic vehicle!
- Jeep Cherokee Sport (Box shape) Also very good!

13. Last 3 offroad or overland destinations:
- Lesotho
- Bridgestone Fundi Challenge 2009
- De Wildt

14. Your favourite destination: Namibia

15. Other hobbies: Hunting, target shooting, camping (anything outdoor) even a flat wheel on the way to work is OK because it means another half hour in the fresh air!!!

16. GPSr and Map Data used: I use the Garmin Quest. To me this is still the best. Have competed in a few GPS challenges and do Geocashing! Latest software and T4A.

17. Rate your 4X4 and overlanding experience: Competent! I can help myself but one is never too old to learn more.

18. Online Photo Site: Not yet!

19. Photos of you and your Vehicle:I will add them soon
