Starring Some ditzy blonde and a mate of mine.

At least she's easier on the eye than all the other 4wd show presenters ..Got to get down that way one day and have look through that country, vids are nice but just wouldnt compare to being there in person though .
-
I reckon she knows more about camping and 4x4 than most. Ditzy? Doubt it.
I think she's also done some promos for Australian Offroad Campers.
Good little show. And not flogging gear every two seconds.

I agree mate. Good little show and she'd know much more than average bloke.

Bird, any idea why the bloke would look familiar to me? Has he been on other shows?
Thanks for the link.

That girl looks MUCH better when the weather is really hot and you turn the sound off >:D >:D

I've tried that Barkley Riiver Jeep track and its tough! Real tough. She done well getting up there. I only made it up partway and had to turn back. No lockers.
Don't know about ditzy. Reckon shes ok.

Yeah, I liked it too. They have a good format and their videography is pretty good too. Love the sound of the V8 Toyotas :cup:

Just watched in again. I'd love to give that track a go, wouldn't do it in the Prado though, I miss my GQ shorty :(

there's an aftermarket coil conversion available for them, not cheap though.

Done a bit of a search and found this
www.4x4australia.com.au/gear/1509/jmacx-suspension/ (http://www.4x4australia.com.au/gear/1509/jmacx-suspension/)
not up with the latest, as I don't buy those wank magazines
I think I'll just stick with the parabolics for now
-
That looks like an unbelievably good improvement over the cart spring rear end the 70 series come with normally.

Love when she says at 14.00 "If crawling is not going to work - then time for something else" Boom...
-
I think the shows great. Watched a few other segments now. It's a refreshing change.
Only improvement I could suggest after a few reds tonight is to change it to.
Top off downunder ;D

I lasted two minutes

It would have been easier if the spotter had told her to use a bit of right hand down and actually steer the wheels where she wanted the vehicle to go...

she's ok on the eyes, but I didn't think she's that good :o ;D

She's gotta be the best lookin 4wd presenter in Oz ffs :D certainly better than "Simon 2 words"

yeah she certainly beats looking at the guys, but to only last 2 minutes she must really float his boat ;)

Pretty easy being an armchair critic. I just reckon its good to see a woman having a go. It might just inspire more to get out there and enjoy it with their fella.

Ditto, at least she's having a good try.
Nice truck too, pity about the vinyl wrap signage. At least its helping to prevent bush pin-striping.

Curious - where in the food chain do you think she fits?
Producer's gf; or the actual driver of the show - the brains behind the whole idea; (not only a 4wd driver I mean); or was she recruited and employed by the show's owners - to create market differentiation and create the exact effect that is happening -- 4WD eye candy; and we are all talking about it.... whilst the show sticks it to all the other competition... the "Okka yob-squads" like - (the All For Adventure boyz); (Roothy; Glenno & cork head); (PatnHat); and the 4WD Action mob - (haven't watched or purchased one of the videos in years - so don't know what they call themselves over there....)

Publicity, plain and simple.

Don't know about now, but she's had her show going for about 3 years in small episodes prior
-
I've spoken to Penny. She is the brains behind the show, for sure.

Not a bad show. I purchased season 5 after seeing this post. Great to see the girls out there having a crack.
Cheers, Mike.

Good show tonight on Blue Rag, fun to see them tackling High Country mud, they wouldn't have seen that before.

I find it easier to watch with the volume down with the fast forward button handy.
She has been making shows for a few years now. The first car was a white GU TD42 with like a 6" lift. Very similar to the all for adventure crew.
Toyota jumped on board and gave her a cruiser same as the all for adventure guys. She then started to do fishing sections from charter boats. Similar to the all four adventure boys.
As for her 4wding ability she is getting better, i found a few old videos on You tube ( looks like before her first show or maybe out cuts) and her man was doing all the hard/ technical driving. Seen her a few times have a little trouble and you can see her looking for help.
She might be the brains behind the show but her man is the 4wder in my opinion.
Have to start you tubing Layland Brothers to go back to non commercialised adventure shows.

Wasn't he supposed to drive in the first season on Cape York but had an injury just before they set out?
-
Not a bad show, it was on Foxtel, not sure if it still is, haven't seen it for a while, does always amuse me when she goes off bush walking in thongs or sandals though.
Speaking of coil Cruisers I saw a new cab chassis Cruiser the other week on a car carrier, noticed it had both leaf and coils in the rear, What's the go there?
