Windmill Man's Hilux Tops 650,000 km

A Queensland man has clocked up more than half a million kilometers in his HiLux following the unusual trade of a windmill mechanic. Jack Morris' 1983-model HiLux 4x2 petrol Double Cab utility has clocked more than 650,000 km. When he bought the vehicle privately in 1991 it had covered 70,000 km. Jack's "territory" is more than 100,000 square kilometers of rural Queensland and he estimates there are seven to eight thousand windmills in that area. Jack Morris usually works within a 200 km radius of his home at Hivesville, North West of Brisbane―but he has travelled as far west as Roma to service windmills. He's been known to travel two hours to perform a ten-minute repair job.
