My wife now informs me every time a new episode is out.

I think she has a thing for Shaun'o. :) :)
I'm sure Shauno would spend his Sheepless nights with her....

That D-Max really impresses me a lot ! He keeps up with all the modified Cruisers and Patrols .
I totally agree with you.

Stock 31'' tires where the other vehicles normally have 35'' tires on with dual lockers.

The Traction Control works really well. Very impressed with the Suz, or is it just good driving?

Enjoy Mike Nel Image

You will actually not believe this.

This morning at 03h30 I am wide awake and so is the wife. Instead of turning around and whispering all sorts of nasty things in my ear, she tells me that there is a new 4WD Action episode on Youtube :o :D

I enjoy 4WD Action a lot but the best series that tops them all for me is Xpedition Overland.

It seems to getting more commercial with each episode.
Product placement now takes priority.
They also whip out the winch as soon as they fail to proceed.
But then, that's because its a sponsored product.

Funny you say this.... now that the Aussies are taking a break from making new installments, I started binge watching the Expedition Overland series. The South America one was awesome and the Alaska one not as good but very interesting series.

I like!
