  • Check out our NZ 4WD adventure with epic drone footage. Stupid or just plain fun, you be the judge. Andrew and Oliver take two Ford Rangers off-road on a journey on New Zealand's extreme Macaulay Hut track all whilst towing caravans, because why not.
    Watch as the team takes on all the elements and battles mud, rivers, rocks snow and blown tires, all while enjoying the majestic scenery that New Zealand has to offer. We have to admit we are not 4WD pro's, but this was one amazing trip in NZ's South Island paradise, and don't forget that these caravans weigh 3 tonnes which makes the journey all the more impressive.

    Guys this is a great video. Great to see where these caravans can go and I would really love to see more of this kind of content. Really interested to see where else you can take them

    Epic video lads. I'm Wanaka based and have been up Macaulay Hutt myself so I know that was a good effort!

    Great video, we did the McCauley in flood last year, was epic, was great to see the Drone footage of the valley covered in snow, that was epic, we had 25deg clear skies and and brown as summer gets, so great to see it from the snowy perspective! Also great to see what these can do, have followed Sarah and Keelan in Aus for years. They have got me interested in an X-Treme Series 2 UB myself. So good to see these in NZ. I noticed the white Van on the way back its leg! s were pointing backwards, was this a user error as the Graphite one legs were fwd to the wheels and tucked in, or is the white one an older model, when are the latest gen coming to NZ? since you guys are in Arrowtown ,Nevis, Garston to Bannockburn, then hit the Thomsons Gorge road, Tarras side to Ranfury side then head up over the Danseys, could do Omarama Saddle but might be a bit too Xtreme, then go the back route via Kurow through the Hakataramea Valley back of the Waitaki Lakes come out at Dog Kennel Corner above Burkes Pass, be a pretty good run back to CHCH🤘

      How good! What a trip that would’ve been. As for the legs, we just packed up in a rush (snow was melting) and didn’t think. Fine on the road, not off-road. Need to be swung inwards. New stock arriving all the time! Come in a check some out. That sounds like an awesome trip we’ll keep it in mind!
