Wow...They do give the gear a work out ...don't they....!!

"Gail Boys" ... thrashing equipment. ...??
Easy as - the 4wds are just an advertising tax deduction. ... the Kedrons... straight out of daddy's factory. .. so no worries. ...
And as for their brand name - "the Gail boyz".... o' their cynicism. ... I mean they could hardly have the trade name:
"The Kedron Caravan Company Marketing Division"... LOL
At least the boys at "All For Adventure" and "Low Range" ... and PatnHat etc tell you they are hoping to influence you; and sell you something. ...
Who gives a shxt what the "Gail Boyz" ... do to their equipment. ... Its just fun eye candy - ...no empathy please :) :)

No empathy from me............
Just plain old ENVY....

Love the Gall Boys dvds..always entertaining and yes they thrash their gear, its good advertising for Toyota as all their trucks are fairly stock and they get hammered offroad!.Wonder what they do when they finish their trips, give them a polish and put them back o the used car lot?!!
Will be interesting to see how the Fortuner goes in this dvd
-
Is it just me then? I can't stand any of their videos. But hey, that's just me :-)

Love all4adventure, Pat ummm to many ads just dumped his whole season of the recorder after two eps.
The galls make it clear this is testing and not to do it with there vans. For many shows they used the same van and its special built to support a crew. Last one and this one looks like the new lighter van designed for playdohs etc.
With the Toyotas They also often show you them returning them to the dealer and proudly flaunt Toyota as a sponsor so not sure how they could tax write off borrowing a car?
-
After watching all there videos though, there never going to be able to make a fishing show? ;D
-
Just rewatched the fim clip, That hilux in the slow mo part towing the van up the small bank climb , gives a good look at how much the chassis flexes under load .. At about 2.03 into the vid.

Hey, I resemble that remark. No loss not being in Moree though.
-
And we're nearly neighbours - Camp Hillian right here. Just checked out the last pic in the film, none of the NSW guys in that clip anyway.
-
Entertaining DVD's, can't wait till this one comes out.
-
Someone mentioned "All For Adventure"...
I have seen a few episodes and enjoyed them....
I don't recall their names - but Jason is the lead guy, right? I like watching his antics - but his current sidekick; (Simon?) acts too bogon for my tastes..... The previous side kick to the main guy was much better imho... Simon actually comes across as a bit thick... ;D
But the previous one was like Mulder is to Scully :laugh:
:cheers:

What's is it with playing in slow motion, boring!!!!
-
Yep, they just treat all their equipment like they are spoilt little brats. They don't respect any of their equipment because they don't have to pay for anything.

Really.
I like them, it's their van, they are product testing, and happen to film it. They can do what they want with it cause they own it. Not the cars but the vans. I like the all 4 adventure guys, no they probably don't own much of their gear. Can't stand mr 4x4 or roothy DVDs, I like John as a person but over his DVDs, and 4wdtv is still stuck in the 70's I think. Lol

If I had truck loads of money I'd be a spoilt little brats as well and I'd treat everything that I bought like I stole it.. Lol

I don't mind watching The Gall Boys, but I have only seen a couple of their dvd's. They are the reason we visited Shady Camp up near Kakadu on our Darwin trip, if I hadn't have seen all the crocs there in their show, I'd of never known about the place. To see all those croc eyes at night lighting up the water like party lights , was amazing as we shine a torch across the lagoon.

Gall Boyz ??? what's wrong with you blokes, watching "boyz" ffs, have look at this,http://www.topofdownunder.com.au/vids.html (http://www.topofdownunder.com.au/vids.html) just turn the sound off tho >:D

C'on boyz.... anyone that can't "detect" they --- (or at least maybe green newcomers to vaning and 4wding) ....are being potentially sold to.... well god help them!
That's all Gail Inc. care about...
Its Gail Inc's "so-called cleaver" good olde boys blokey way of luring in the innocent (naive? ) ..IMHO . (sorry) --- that makes me sick. ..
Eye candy for trashing dad's products for sure -- but those who buy into their propaganda and relating "to it" .. No!
It's like as if their best mate was fearlessly bravely conquering the bush "at all costs"....
Nah - you're being potentially sold to; thats all there is to it..... but no worries - admire and marvel away.....

I dont know BC, but they cant be doing too bad a job, 10 DVDs in roughly 20 years ... Soooo I guess theyre realy plugging the advertising bit and doing the hard sell Huh ! ..
Reckon if they were relying on pushing the dvds to sell their product, they should have went bust years ago .. But hey who cares Its a bit of entertainment / their gear and if they get a few extra orders from it so what .
I say good on em, Ill never be able to afford their product, After all if your in a bussiness of any type the bottom line is to move as much product or have as much work as you can and make a profit, which they seem to done quite well for a long time ..
Reckon I wouldnt mind Toyota or who ever giving me a few brand new 4wds to go thrash on holidays with ... Just for making a show of it and filming the trip ..
-
REALLY yes really. I guess it must have been good being bought up with a silver spoon in their mouth and not having to respect anything.
-
Geez some seem to have it right in for them! A Kedron must held someone up going up a hill once?
Der Of course it's advertising what off-road show isn't? The diff is they are doing it mainly on there own product but there also doing it for there own enjoyment or otherwise they'd be having somebody do it for them like Mr ARB, Mr TJM , and Mr Redarc Does!
And at least they have the guts to pull a product when it's crap. Watch an early episode where they do about 8 tyres in a trip and they give them a bad wrap. They had to end up Bluring out that Sponsers name to keep all happy!
And yes Iam sure they make some bucks on the pure DVD sales nowdays. additionally it's product development. They reiterate don't do this with our vans but it means that their vans can take a fair whack of mistreatment when taken on rougher roads etc. you don't hear a lot of bad things about there vans, other than how expensive they are.
-
I live a sheltered life, not seen any Gall boys videos, never heard of the shows with the 3 girls either.
Watching all these shows just reminds me of things and places I wanna do, so I don't watch them.
-
.....you don't hear a lot of bad things about there vans, other than how expensive they are.
Gotta pay for the damage, and their holiday, somehow.... ;D
-
I'll also add that Glen Gall would have to be one of the friendliest and nicest blokes you would ever chat to. Totally down to earth and quick with a joke.
-
Yeah.... they're joking all the way to the bank.... When they say: "dont treak your Kedron like we treat ours" ... I immediately thought they may be trying to manage a flood of warranty claims.... LOL
I personally don't want these posts to be about Gall Inc. The main point I was making related to what I said in my initial 2 posts on this matter....
AKA -- Please give your viewer some credit - and acknowledge that you are "Selling to them"....
Based on some of the commentary in these posts - it would appear that some maybe sucked in - admiring their "fearless at all costs" bush bashing of Oz; and (daddy's) Kedrons; and the (sponsors) 4wds....
And I believe the videos ARE a huge arm of their marketing. ...
At the bne show last year they had a huge display of vans.... many many were sold through out the event.... In the middle of all that was a cute retro van flogging Gall dvds and apperal etc.
What totally amazed me was I recall a sign saying something like "over 2 million hits on you tube...." I don't recall the figure - but I do recall that it was a MASSIVE number....

So what? I don't get your post mate TBH other than your gotta a 5h1tty on for the galls. Yep their a business and there making money and there flogging videos same as all the other would be outback heroes now! At least you acknowledge now they have Sponsers too and it's not all a tax write off aswell.
Right back to your heroes the Lelyand brothers they were flogging us stuff in there films and not making any blatant admission of doing so. Who cares only the less than 5 IQ are not going to see it as anything but advertising.
You should see the media empire and fortress Pat in the Hat has built himself? Interesting that nobody has put two and two together in the "club 4x4 " thread in that "club 4x4 " is at Blaxland and Pat has his empire there too! Google Blaxland industrial area there's lucky to be 20 building total.
Good luck to them all, hope they all make millions, the worst travel fourbie show is ten times better. Than the reality dribble on tv

:cheers:

Some good points there...
I personally reckon the likes of Roothy and Jas & Simon; and PatnHat ...(probably through "desperate" necessary) -- do make it plainly blatantly obvious that they are flogging ya crap...
I haven't watched the Leyland movies for a couple of years - (the amazing original stuff they did in the 1970's is on you tube)... But I don't recall any of the PatnHat or Jas type of advertising in their original series... ??
I was under the impression, (happy to be corrected if I am wrong); ... that they were making their money by getting the TV stations to bankroll them in those early series?
No incessant plugging of sponsor product... Gall Inc. don't overtly comment on how great the Kedrons are, or how you should go out and buy one... So to that extent - they are reminiscent of the Leyland Brothers... (except of course the Leyland boys didn't own Landrover)...
But as much as I know - Gall Boys also don't say "we own the company that makes these vans"... Is that overall generally correct?; these statements are not included in their dvds...?
ie: If its not correct - then they would be disclosing this information in every dvd - and on several occasions... Like when they say: "don't treat your Kedron like we are treating this one you are watching in the video" ... do they also add: "because we own the factory - and for us repairs are cheap or free, etc"
Thanks for the intel on PatnPat's Blaxland industrial area .... Interesting ... No wonder he was 'ironed and starched' shirts in his videos... LOL
And I say hallelujah to that: .... "the worst travel fourbie show is ten times better. Than the reality dribble on tv"

I can't recall specifics but I seem to remember the Lelyand brothers having Sponsors? Fuel company etc? Maybe not the very earliest, I bet the series where they towed a van around they did? And if they had of been more business savvy they may of not ended up bankrupt and lost to TV? . Another example was malcolm Douglas who never said much but had ampol stickers and got free Toyotas and boats.
No the galls don't make a blanant "we own the company" statement irrc. But they also talk about the factory, and there dad starting building vans a zillion years ago and talk to owners who have bought From them. you'd have to be stupid to not put the two together ! But then again I suppose the ludicrous in our society today could argue for a full disclaimer because that's the way it's got be today hey? because the stupidest can't put it together !
I don't ever recall Pat saying "Iam paid to promote xyz product " either he works around it. Perhaps he should for the Poor souls who maybe mislead that we as a society need to protect?
Just think of all those disillusioned people who went out and bought 3lt patrols on Pats say so!!! We could of saved them all? :cheers: and Pat never said a disclaimer like the Galls? "Don't drive this patrol like me for fear of the turbo blowing the motor"
Just enjoy them, there idiots but entertaining enough. I for one would never want to take anything weighing 1.5t or more where you can remotely get bogged so enjoy watching some idiot do it.
