An insane trip (adventure to say the least) through the congo

Ive been reading this off and on all day. Guy and his wife take a land cruiser through the dark side of africa....one of the best stories i've read in a long time.

Enjoy

Hey we agree!

I'm halfway through but I think it's safe to say they get out ok. Silly white people thinking the world is our playground.

Land Cruisers are hands down the favorite 4x4 in countries where paved roads are a afterthought.It funny seeing city people equipped their "yuppie suv" with brush guards and Hella foglights on the roof knowing full well they never ever be in a situation to use it.....

100% agree

In Ukraine Land Cruisers are easily 30% of all vehicles on the road. Well in Kiev at least
