BIG, BRASH AND BRAWNY RAMBLER LC79 IS A DREAM MADE TRUE, IN ALL ITS TRACKBUSTING GLORY.
BUILDING a top-notch tourer can be a lengthy process, especially if you’ve started with a showroomfresh new vehicle. It can be weeks of figuring out what to fit, what you can afford, and waiting while it all happens. Then you have to sweat it out regarding what insurance coverage to get for all your just fitted goodies, and then consider if your now heavily modified rig is still covered by its factory warranty. Or, you could head to TJM 4x4 Megastores and jump behind the wheel of something exactly like this Sandy Taupe monster: the Rambler Edition LC79 by TJM. It’s a rig built to be the ultimate answer to any tourer’s question of “what vehicle do I need to tackle any and all off-road adventures?”
Covered in all essential touring kit, the Rambler is bloody impressive. Adding to that is the fact this big bopper is covered by its original five-year factory warranty, along with a three-year warranty on all fitted accessories. Yep, the Rambler is a turnkey tourer with everything included, right down to the small print on the warranties. A spark of genius, if you ask us.
DREAMING A REALITY
TOYOTA’S 79 Series is a hugely popular vehicle for touring; its combination of a big V8 diesel engine, large fuel capacity and tough build quality and engineering sees it as the ubiquitous outback tourer, in many and varied modified incarnations. Even with that, Kris Humphrys, director at TJM 4x4 Megastores, and business partner Brad Russell saw there was a space in this modified tourer scene for a full turnkey offering that wasn’t only an effective tourer but a vehicle that could be used every day as general transport.
