To acknowledge the support from their customers, Ironman 4&#215;4 in Alberton recently hosted a Hilux day where owners these bakkies came to show off their cars and their 4&#215;4 accessories.<\/p><div class=\"stream-item stream-item-in-post stream-item-inline-post aligncenter\"><\/div>\n<p>A variety of Hilux bakkies attended the day, some clean, others dirty, some were old and some new. Some of the vehicles are used daily whereas others are specially modified for off-road competitions and overland adventures.

Daily use judging focused on the overall condition and neatness whereas, in the overland category, recovery items, tools, extra batteries, water, bumpers and upgraded suspension were the points of interest. In the competition category, judges looked for protective elements such as roll cages and underbody protection. The best Hilux of the day walked away with a 12V Monster Winch worth R16 500. The second prize came in the form of a 74L IceCube Fridge while third prize was a set of new Ironman 4&#215;4 LED Spotlights.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-380039\" src=\"https:\/\/randburgsun.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2019\/11\/IMG_4478.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A well-received visitor to the event was the 2019 Braai Master, The Braai Mafia, himself who supplied hungry event-goers with mouth-watering pulled pork buns.
