    “The best thing about 4WDing is you don’t really need a whole heap of cash to get out there and enjoy yourself. Plenty of folk out there reckon you need all the gear in the world to have a cracker of a weekend, on this DVD I’ll show you the complete opposite. Yep - I’m hopping in the camera car - a soot blowing, funny smelling 80 Series that we bought for under $5k. She’s got tyres and suspension and that’s about it. I’ll prove that you don’t need to throw $30k at your 4WD to enjoy the best bits of the High Country. I’d be lying if I said it all went to plan though - I don’t think I could come any closer to rolling the old girl if I tried! To find out how - you’re going to have to watch!” -Shauno

    Man I love these videos guy I watch every week from Maine, USA and the new intro is gold. I have always loved Australia and would love to come see it someday

      @jcarry5214 Před 4 lety +2

      Me too. I'm from Maine but I live in Utah now. Come here if you can. It's only a nice 4 day drive and there's almost never any bugs. For us, it's as close to driving on another planet as you can get without a visa and 30 hours of travel.

      Danny Mitchell wouldn’t last long at all or go very far

    • @Captain-Awesome
      @Captain-Awesome Před 4 lety

      Liam S I don’t know about that one. I know that the European versions are some what beefed up with gussets due to roads being lower quality but the rigs they have on the “tracks” have after market parts. I would put the XJ in my thumbnail or a Wrangler Rubbicon up against those rigs. I am not saying one is way better than another but want to see what they are capable of side by side.

    • @liams1854
      @liams1854 Před 4 lety

      Danny Mitchell well these 4wd’s are designed for Australian conditions. Hot & dry, I have a feeling a European manufactured Jeep wouldn’t be too reliable (built for cold). They’re very capable off road vehicles though

    Not first.. don't care about where my comment lands because I'm not a child, demanding attention. What I am is entertained watching these amazing videos you guys post, whilst laying in hospital after rolling my 4x4 at 100km/h 3 times into a tree.

    • @nicholashunter2790
      @nicholashunter2790 Před 6 lety +93

    Shauno, Seeing the inside of the winch after so much punishment is just impressive. I have one myself and swear by it. Its recovered more vehicles helping others than for myself. Very Reassuring heading out bush with my family having the Domin8tor 12,000 on the front.

    @seeker6766 Před 6 lety

    Hi Guys,
    Great vids and you guys are all fantastic but you should review the advice you are giving about where to locate the winch rope dampening "device" (originally a blanket or similar).... it needs to catch the "projectile" before coming through your windscreen.
    Cheers... Keep the vids coming!!!

    I have a 2013 jeep Wrangler Sahara Unlimited that yearns to do what you blokes do every day. Sadly, I have to wait until the extended warranty runs out before adding a nice 2-inch lift, 35's and a winch, but I yearn for the day!

    • @jacobhendrickson8935

    @idahodoug1618 Před 5 lety

    Strange thing at 53:31. Anyone notice the right trailer tire briefly lock as he is struggling up the hill with it? The trailer has its own handbrake I think, from an earlier episode. Really handy feature I've never seen here in the states. But either it was still on all the way up the hill, or a rock or something briefly stops the wheel.
