Welcome to the Expo atlib! Nice Jeep! Your part of the world beckons to me and I hope to visit your island sometime. PLEASE post some shots of your neck of the woods (natural, cultural, historical, icelandic rigs, etc, etc..) so I can satisfy my wanderlust via your photos.

Welcome! Years ago in the Navy I had a choice between Keflavik and Adak AK, made the wrong choice and went to Adak. Less than probably 75 miles of roads total, and no off roading. Stupid, Stupid, Stupid!

Welcome to ExPo! It's an honor to have an Icelander here. My wife and I have been doing some research on Iceland and hope to make a visit. From what I can tell, you have quite an active 4wd community with an interest in conservation. The winter experiences look fantastic.

Iceland is on my big list of places to see. It's near the top of my list so I hope to be there soon.

Welcome atlib.
It's been 20+ years since I was in your beautiful country. I fished the Laxá river and had a most enjoyable visit there, and I look forward to returning with my wife someday.
Those are some nice looking rigs you've posted here.

the gas price is crazy, it is 8dollars per gallon and the cars are twice as expensive as in USA so it is a very expensive country but a very very beautiful place I will keep the pictures coming. thanks again for your kind replies.
