Best thing about liv on 4wd247 was that she was just a part of the team. No fanfair or Instagram camera angles , she was just liv and part of the team. Was great to see them just show her doing everything they did which is the best example for both sexes
Tassie 100% has a big rubbish problem, broken snatch straps, car parts and beer bottles etc are everywhere on those tracks as well as other west coast areas. Its a real shame there are so many people who just don't take it out with them. The east coast is much cleaner and tidier in this regard. Except for the toilet paper people leave on the surface literally surrounding the campsites. Guess they didn't take a shovel.....
Nickle bloody back! Other then that Liv is great. Good work Tony, I enjoy your interview style mate, mind you with the people you're interviewing it seems an easy task. Lookin forward to see who ya chat to next.
I think that's the most frustrating part, a lot of the restrictions really don't seem to make sense. The rules around SSM are a particular head-scratcher for me.
I nearly had a novel written trying to explain my understandings of it. But simply put, what ever the categories that best suited for the particular vehicle being imported, they had certain requirements that had to be met. So it can be put into the RAV database . Once it’s in there ,that’s the mothership you want your be in. But once in there (Motherhsip by the sounds., If the effort wasn’t made or the requirements were different 20 YT ago , once that database, those requirement are for life . Despite technology adavancing RAV don’t care . Meet whatever it required orrr else .. Or maybe this is when the automotive engineer sets in . And they can approve the Changes for the individual. And they may make sense to someone who Matters possibly , just depends how you interpret articulate the wording.
What I mean by that last bit, palms would be greased during this process .. and us common folk ain’t suppose to understand so we can’t import And buy through the Corps
I remember seeing Jessie at the shops one time , he new that I new ..every bit of me wanted to just say hello , but refrained . I could only imagine how hard going to get your milk in an area known for its tracks and Popular by demand to get your there milk 🥛 for breakfast the next day.
Recently i done Melbourne to Perth down the old hwy witj my 80 year old old man. He backed packed there 50 years ago and i ditched the $15000 canopy to a tray and fridge in the back seat and man back to basics rock. Selling my old setup for one now in the big old 79
The topic of modifications and policing is such an important one and I REALLY wish there was more discussion on it in an intelligent and constructive way. You guys nailed it. There needs to be some major reform in how this country polices vehicles, because it's just counterproductive. I come from a modified street cars background, specifically Japanese sports cars and for about 15 years it was my life. The majority of the time we aspired to get to the track and do the right thing. This applies to off roading too, but when you're young, broke, and probably a little dumb, it's not cheap to get to somewhere legal to enjoy your car, let own afford a tow car, trailer and everything else so consequently you drive it on the road (even if it's to the legal spot). As soon as anything modified hits the road in Australia it's highly illegal, at least from a policing perspective. Never mind cars like Frank, as Pooly mentioned, with bald tires and leaks that might be generally unsafe, they're fine. For those that do seek engineering, and legal or less intrusive avenues to test their vehicles the policing doesn't seem to let off, the pressure is just increased. After nearly two decades of playing with low, loud and fast cars on the roads and highly fatigued from how they're perceived I moved to fourbys off the roads, and I know a lot of us would have done the same, but the police oppression has just followed us here into the bush and the beaches. I've personally had a few interactions while on a certain sandy island being told that my car is defect for things like a more capable 33🙄. I think what Pooly said was very important regarding allowing higher levels of engineering which will then in turn generate companies that will develop safer and wider available parts to support people that want to do that. In Australia the attitude tends to be (and this applies to almost everything policed) ban and enforce and it will stop people, whereas the reality is people will do it anyway but in a far unsafer and obviously illegal way because there is no legal avenue for it.
Thanks mate, totally agree. I was heavily involved in the street car scene and imports too, and got out of it because I was sick of getting hassled by the police. Now it seems 4WDs are an easy target for them too.
Only the second episode I have watched on this channel and its two from two. Excellent. It was only the other week out in the shed drinking that I thought about the picking up papers punishment. I think we as a society need a week we're everyone needs to pick up 1000 bits of rubbish. Might make people start to rethink their purchases decision.
Fell over this podcast today. Goes well. Two great guys in the 4x4 community. I agree all the 4x4 clubs need to band together and with clean up Australia as the banner, we should make these so called leaders of our society take note and understand this is Australia. Can't wait for more episodes. Oh, and Salute the Colonel. 😂
Just show the creators picking up the rubbish/broken car parts without mentioning it, so it sticks in our subconscious. Like when Pooly breaks an tail shaft. Show him putting it in back of cruiser.. Make it cool to take your shit. Don't harp on about taking it, that seems to some as "goody 2 shoes" just show that even loose c's like Pooly just take their rubbish without fuss. Go the Victorian's
That's a good point mate, I'm sure there's a portion of the community who don't want to hear other people telling them what to do, so we should all lead by example.

@@theouterside Boe definitely is a legend. The small issue I find with picking up rubbish when I’m out is disposing of larger amounts without filling your own residential bin or some council bin that will end in the bin being too full and spilling anyway.
Love your work Boe! My biggest hate with supermarkets using plastic packaging on fruit and veg is that the same product without plastic is more expensive. How can a 1kg plastic bag of carrots be cheaper than 1kg of loose carrots in the same shop? Especially considering a whole extra product (the plastic) has been manufactured and added to the said sale, but yet it's still cheaper. Lots of consumers only care about price, not packaging, so the best thing Coles and Woolies could do would be make all the loose groceries cheaper than their bagged alternatives. Consumers will then automatically start buying less plastic ..
Good work by Boe for stepping up and doing this. I actually thought he had been running longer but great to see either way. Im with him about supporting and working with brands you actually believe in, there are some brands I might use knowing it is not the best but I will never want to be sponsored by because I would never want to promote them in that way, a certain other RU-vid channel lost a lot of respect from me when they were sponsored by one of these brands. Love the comments about the Ghetto Bird, chasing the stolen chopper, Welcome to Western Sydney.
Such a good point about picking up rubbish was a punishment, it was such a negative thing growing up, hopefully that has turned around now it should be taught as a good thing from a early age
Boe is a dead set legend!! Ive been camping and on a few cleanups when he comes over to w.a.....we have a recycling program in w.a so i gave them some plastic bottle and one gin bottle thats made of glass nope cant be accepted 🤦♂️🤦♂️
@theouterside absolutely. There are plenty of great people doing great stuff for the community. Just a shame when some of the bigger influencers and channels don't research enough then post and unfortunately people follow
We need to stop blaming the greens for this and actually blame our politicians in charge. The greens hold the smallest, if any, amount of power in most councils, and at the state and federal level. And I know they’re the easy scapegoat but the reality is, track closures have been happening with both major parties in power. We all need to respect our country, clean up after ourselves (and others too, unfortunately) and contact your local member if something is happening in your area!
@@Danielinthewild the only ones to blame are National Parks & Wildlife. They are the ones responsible for locking up the Aussie bush. The problem as I see it is we lack a unified voice to lobby government and cease this lazy and ineffective way of ‘managing’ our public land.
@@theouterside but a lot of these tracks(or maybe even most? It would depend on what state you’re in) aren’t even managed by national parks and wildlife. And closures often have nothing to do with them, look at roam lyfe showing what they did to big red and little red in QLD - that wasn’t parks, that was private land and the company responsible did that because it was unsafe and probably a law case waiting to happen. I know national parks service bashing has became really big in Vic lately because of rumours of a new national park forming, an idea which was valid 15-20 years ago to help maintain what little native forest Vic has left (now less than 1%) but too little too late now, but every time I talk with one of these anti-national parks people ask what tracks parks is supposedly closing, they don’t have an answer? And it’s like you can hunt, fish, 4wd, dirt bike and prospect in pretty much every national park in Vic but now they’re seen as this almighty gate-keeping for god knows what. Maybe I’m naive because I’m new, and if that’s the case then educate me and others like me, what tracks has parks been closing before my time? And was it actually parks? Long comment for a RU-vid short sorry 😂
Agree totally with this….. i may not be living it, as I’m too lazy and time poor but definitely something i need to take more serious is where our meat comes from.
