Any lizard fanciers in the house?

I'm on the South Coast of NSW and this guy just dont look right for this area, more used to seeing blue tongues! BTW, I first noticed him while watering the tomatoes yesterday at 6am and he was still there at 4pm!!

I'm no expert but it looks like a common bearded dragon to me.

Might be unusual in your area as this distribution map shows a "gap" around there.

2WD or 4WD? Diesel or petrol, or no preference? Single cab, extra/king cab or dual cab?

Tray top's are a lot easier to find in this neck o the woods , Can't beet (

) a hilux diesel for economy provided you are not intending to exceed the posted speed limit every where you go .

If you want to do the 10 kph over jobbie every where , get a petrol 4 cyl ute from one of the Japanese manufacturers , there all pretty similar but Mitsubishi seem to have the keenest pricing .
