Temeraire has been treated to some new wiper blades today as a treat for most of the rest of the day hauling full trailers of sheep up one of the steeper and nastier tracks on the farm. The automatic really does take the biggest stick to the manual for this kind of work.

Today I decided to give it a bit of a test, two hours round the hills helping a bud on his feeding rounds. It was pretty steep, very wet and in places pretty deep claggy mud - we had two big blokes and 130 kg of feed in the back.
Blimmin hell this thing is unstoppable (on fully inflated road tyres). I used to be a recce soldier and I've got various vehicles both wheeled and tracked in and out of some fairly tricky places but this is just ace, we had a bit of spinning on a really steep muddy bit on a tight turn but apart from that it just cruised about the place.
The only problem was not taking it out of 4wd quick enough on a tarmac bit and then it took some fiddling to get out of 4wd and came out with a bit of a clang, wont make that mistake again. The low range didnt work for a bit after that either, when you pressed 4L it beeped three times but did not go in, started working 5 mins later again though (no idea what happned there).
Really very impressed, Ill run these tyres out then get some slightly more knobbly ones but really theres no need.
