    That's a good one they have been known also to pop out of the air vents some times when cars have come in for service if they have been out in the bush for a while

    I face 1 up 1 down in a theory I have weird belief,
    Once on way back from Bendigo I seen a pack of them starring at me as I drove past too true I mean they all looked and as I went past they just watched my car it was Hilarious and that was while running the plastic chrome version I wouldn't fit the electronic set Ive herd the same though I testing out the chrome 1's with theory 1 up 1 down will maybe in theory keep 2 away, as roo's will do 3 things 1 run towards the headlights, 2 Run away 3 Pause so I hope that having the theory 1 up 1 down might work I have a few weird theory on many of on off/Rd items and the Shoo Roo's are 1 of them!
    On recent trip Syd to Melb Not 1 roo in sight so there doing there job i hope LOL lets hope No bullbar with the fibreglass front wont wash well vo bullbar is rather ugly on my VT Im blessed to use it at times by choice Im a fussy driver wont drive at sunrise sunset wont take risks etc will back off to 80KM in zones where are likely to encounter Roos especially at night! Anyone like Skippy the Old version not the 90's version! (sorry about size of pic Ive tried to edit it make smaller then remove it sorry!

    Well she is not a V8 due to laws on Probationary Licence Hence I've only held my licence for 1 year! She is a V6 worked she actually in having the gear box changed looking to go for a tip-tonic after burning the last 1 out,

    As for Hp I wouldn't know though have the latest results of dyno tune due when the gear box is in!

    I'm lucky that neighbours are all cool with the 2 carpark thing as they all come to me for help when there cars are broken down LOL, I cover her with a cover as well to prevent bastards possums from scratching her up, & rest assured I actually got permission!

    @ previous address had the body corporate lady demand that she was able to use 2 car spaces & I couldnt feel the love there red rocket! If anyone ever needs me to move my car I do so and live by Peace to All , Life is complicated enough I believe to always be fair and 2 true at that Iam I love all my neighbors and in return they don't hassle me I love all thy neighbours,


    Now if you think thats a nice commodore check out triple X body-kits ( Then you see what they can do its amazing )

    Com fans check out Melbourne Hooning, Melbourne St commodores!
