Re: A day with the Saigon Jeep Club
Duc, you guys have Big Balls! (thats a comment) to lower your mutt into the water like that! Most of us do not even want to take our mutts out in the rain! That is a very nice looking Sand color Mutt, who owns it?ducreddoor wrote:This is the first round we test with water....we are going to come back this test in about 2 weeks...

Re: A day with the Saigon Jeep Club
With no roll cages! You guys are nuts. A little off on the jump and get sideways and over you go. Looks like fun though.

Re: A day with the Saigon Jeep Club
Is that a light where the original spare was on yours? I like the shackles moved to the bottom of the bumper on the tan one, Nice touch. That must be a hard landing with all of that weight on the front.

Re: A day with the Saigon Jeep Club
Hi Duc, Sorry that I have not responded to you before but for some reason I did not see your response until now. I really am impressed with the Jeeps and the photo's you posted. Where were they taken? About two weeks ago I saw a group of jeeps and motorcycles with sidecars that had just come of the Cat Lai ferry heading towards Vung Tau. Unfortunately I could not stop to talk because we were moving on to the ferry at the time. Heading for Saigon.
I like your new site but unfortunately I do not understand Vietnamese so I cannot follow the threads. I would like to join the club and attend some of your days out and off road trips. Hopefully I will manage to communicate with everyone, my wife is Vietnamese and she likes jeeps too so she may come along which would be a help.
By the way I live in Xa Phu Dong in Nonh Trach about 8km from the ferry. Look forward to hearing from you.
