3 Month Review Of My NEW CAR.. Was It Worth The Money?? 

Whats your opinion on this, do you think its worth the money? What car do you drive?

Petition to Get brodie on an episode of 4wd 24/7 with shauno and graham

For those wondering, the 1 AUD is 0.795 USD. Being he paid 200K in Australia, it would have been about $159K in the U.S. I know he has a tons of U.S. viewers

Put a board rack in there and a rod rack that uses the walls as a mounting surface would save huge amounts of space and keep shit from flopping around in the back there.

Been following this(the main) channel for two years now, it's so satisfying seeing how far you've come, it's always a pleasure to follow your trips and i really have to say that i'm so happy for you, it really fills me with joy seeing a deserving person who is succeeding and achieving his dreams. I think we could say we're really proud of you and please, don't stop! If i ever come to Australia i will visit that beach for sure, and hope i'll meet you too! Much love from Italy

Hey Brodie, for your issue of reaching shit in the back. Go on Amazon and order you a tire step. It's small enough to fold up and fit wherever in the truck and it just mounts over the top of the tire and has a step!

Just want to say thank you for making such good content on both pages, being stuck in a hospital for the past 2 months is really taxing and your content is the only thing keeping me wanting to push to recover as soon as possible. Keep up the amazing work

You are killing it brodie. Spreading positivity around the world one video at a time. Never stop being you.

I'm happy for you! Looks like a beast of a truck. Thanks for all you do through these videos. still by far the best channel for me on RU-vid as I share the same passion for the ocean.

It’s definitely worth it! Best vehicle you could own. Got everything you need! Love watching your videos. Keep doing what your doing mate

Ok. I have a tip. For the refrigerator you could use clear caulking (silicone), not sure what you call it since I’m in the U.S.. Putting beads of caulking in the corners and maybe in the middle for each shelf will keep them from falling and you can just peel off the chalking if you want to move the shelf. Also, for the carpet, it is designed to hold but be removable to replace damaged carpet. What I did on my 4x4 vehicle is screw on metal edge strips such as what may be used on the floor to separate carpeting from a hard floor such as tile or wood. I used spray glue for the carpeting on my truck and had the edging so it didn’t come off...even on a weekend trip in the Mojave Desert at 112 deg.F (44.4 deg. C). Love the videos.

Bets content on RU-vid. Love how happy you are and how honest you are! Wish you nothing but the best

Good genuine and honest review. I always wanted to get a 79 until we got new ones at work and they are so uncomfortable and basic it changed my mind. I am so jealous of your rig👍🇦🇺👍

I don't know about anyone else but I was watching Stradda while he was inside of the truck..

Thanks so much for the content Brodie you’ve really helped me through the toughest times Thank you❤️

Mad respect for being open with us as always brother 💜

Amazing work, car looks great. Look in to the drifter roof top tents. As for you rods I put rod holders in my canopy and they seem to work well.

Awesome vid man! For the board/ rods you could put a shelf in the back for the board on top and some rod holders beneath it. Mount the shelf the minimal distance required for the board to fit beneath the roof of the canopy and you’ll have a heap of spare room below for other things!

Always love the honesty!! I want this sweet ride !!!

Love ya Brodie!! Keep it up

I just did a 3 week off-roading trip around Namibia in a 79 with long range fuel tank and clamshell tent on the roof. What an awesome car!!! We went up the skeleton coast and it was a dream in the sand.

Appreciated the honesty , great vid 👍

One of the best additions you've made is the bonnet gas struts, so handy to have. Perhaps a winch could be something to also consider down the track. You've seen my GU Patrol Rockstar when my cousin and I managed to fight off a Hammerhead on the Yaks. Keep up the great work showcasing WA , regards Clint

i love how honest u are , great man

Really awesome video Brody your honesty is wicked love you man

The only thing is with all the salt your rig is exposed to, I would want to protect the undercarriage from rusting.I don’t know if they have it in Australia but in the states where the salt the roads in winter, some of us have the undercarriage fluid filmed to prevent rust. I do it before every winter and it really is the best thing for preventing rust. Love your truck!

That's a sweet ride! Need a ceiling rod holder mounted to the outside struts on the bed cover to secure your fishing rods. And a wall mount board rack for your surfboard. Love your videos bro! Living the dream!

Hey Brodie, watched your 79 series vids over and over.... I've finally gone and done it... bought a 2021 79 70th Anniversary Edition.. booked in at JMACX to get done in May 2022... Still deciding on canopy but I think Norweld will win the race. You're right mate, every mans dream to own a 79 like this. Bank balance will be a little lighter, but hey you only live once. It'll be our promo vehicle for our new B2B online camping store, can't wait ... but wait I'll have to do. Won't be ready until August and then will have to get it sent over here to the Pilbara. If you see a 79 like yours but in vanilla white driving around your town closer to the end of this year, stop and say hi... Love your vibe brother ... Stay safe, Scooter ..

Props on the honesty and not just selling it mate. Awesome 👌🏼

I bought my wife a brand new Toyota 4x4 in march 2020. Within 6 weeks the handbreak was exactly how you explained yours was. During the first service and check over after 1000km they tightened it and whatever else and ots perfect now. At your next service mention it and they should fix it no worries man

Love the cruisers.. Worth every cent. and you've got the right tyres too. Roof top tents, look at the drifter ones. and put some silicon on your fridge shelves to stop or reduce the movement. you need a water tank and a shower off the back.

On that back section I would secure fishing storage tubes to the ceiling of the tour box inside. That is currently wasted space. Rod nose in first and that pulls them off the floor and leaves whole bottom section for boards. I have seen storage that has cut out to have reel rest or shorter tube with a bungee cord wrapped around handle. Have several buddies that storage rods that way. Keeps the safe and quick in and out. For boards maybe small separator in the middle.

Love this content Brodie.... Now you are covering it all. Asked you.... you delivered.

Brodie you work hard, you play hard and you deserve everything you wanna buy. So yeah it’s worth every dollar you spent. And it helps you create some great content. Keep it coming 👍

I built at enclosed rack that mounts to the roff of my Chevy . Built it from wood them covers it in fiberglass and added a lock

I have always wanted the 4.2 diesel land cruiser, I have had 2x Nissan safari wagon, but the double cab uses are flipping awesome. ATM I have a 3 liter 1999 prado wagon, it is good on and off road, it "eats" the beach, but also I can stack a few kids in the back and tow the trailer. Still dreaming of the double cab ute though. Loving the channel Brodie and team, really like the science behind the fishing, will start aging my catch, or at least having a look.

PVC rod tubes are the way to go. just put some foam on the inside of it so you don't crack your rods. Plus it is an easy diy project.

I believe you call it a bonnet we call it a camper shell in the states I have one on one of my trucks. Mounted the fishing poles to the ceiling of the campership / bonnet. Keep them out of the way and from being damaged. Use PVC on one end to hold the handle and a bungee to hold the other end. plenty of room on the ceiling and it also keeps them out of the weather. Another solution yes to make a rod holder rack for the front bumper which we use for longer rods if we are surf fishing. Just need to keep an eye on when you're in the bush We're Going Under Lowe structures. Brodie you're the best I hope this helped. Cheers from South Central Texas.

Hey Brodie! Thanks for sharing your life with everyone!!! I would see if you can mount a 3-4 inch (10-12 CM’s?) PVC pipe with some foam for your rods, and 2 padded racks inside for your board. Back wall looks open. Come check out the Arizona heat sometime!!!

try get some sort of surf rack on the right side wall (where you pointed out the carpet falling off) . So you can take that carpet off, and drill somesort of board rack you could get of amazon, and then you can put your rods below if you put the rack a tad bit higher, or just use a board bag for now just so you don't ding your boards

Keep it up big man. Love the rig. Next big question. Jacko, his twin motor beast?

Loving the truck.... but curious to know if you purchased one of those Rust Preventers ( think they call them a Couplertec )

Hey Brodie 🙌🏻, a simple, cheap and effective idea for fishing rod storage I found is going to Bunnings and grabbing some PVC piping, long enough to suit your rods, pull apart or not, and wide enough to store how ever many rods you like (just gotta take the reels off if need be). It's convenient storage on top on the roof rack, and out of the way where they can't get broken, they're hidden from the sun and weather and you can lock them away with an end pin through the caps of the pipe, they're awesome to sticker bomb with any stickers you may have or wanna chuck on, and it's simple to use. Or you could even mount it inside your canopy high up and out of the way 👍🏻 Cheers 🍻

Brodie from a surfer this is the best way to travel with your board get wrap rax for your roof racks then put your boards in a travel case or a sock and then get some tie downs

Very nice, I'm one of those 5k under the bonnet guys. Tyres, suspension, exhaust, map, catch can and egr blank. Some protective mods and she is my baby! A good base makes a big difference as well for the cash to be spend on.

If you're keen to fix the carpet, check out some hi-temp marine spray adhesive. Try and get the old glue off the metal first,(mineral spirits) rough up the metal with some scotch-brite pads or sand paper, give the metal a final clean with some mineral spirits. Watch the over spray of the adhesive. Thanks for the vids!

For the rods u can buy holders for the front grill of your car or for the roof. Plenty of them on amazon

Hilarious Brodie! Loved the ending of this one! 🤣🤣

Thanks for showing the quirks and features.

Hi Brodie, I would recommend howling moon roof tents. I personally own one and I have for 18 years and I can't fault it.

May I suggest a pvc tube from the A/C in the front to the box at the back, to cool down the electrical parts & connections, heat from the back of the fridge and to stop the degrade of everything back there caused by the heat, including the carpet peeling off.

Bodies, can you have a custom rack put in on the Drivers side where the current shelf is for board's n rods, handbrake is definitely a 79 thing. Depends if you are going to use or just show pony it. I drive an 04 V6 petrol Navara Dual cab and an 05 petrol Rav 4

VELCRO straps for the board to the side. as for the poles you could strap them to the roof rack with bungies

Racks for the rods and surf board. Anti rust paint coat under car also in a must there. Also spare tyre cover.

Love your content brother😗

Brodie's a legend. Positivity all the time, I was offended at first, I was just jealous. Yeeooww

Broadie if you were to put a velcro strapped rod tie down system it would get them off the floor and keep them from banging around. You could also use soft rack system mounted flat across the inner divider for your board. I can see it in my mind.

Absolute banger of a vid and car !

Worth it absolutely. I think for your boards and rods you should put a rack above where you currently have the board and rods, that would free up the floor space and give you a dedicated area to store them.

Find a spot on the top of your canopy to put a bit of PVC pipping for your rods. Just have to take the reels off. But space saving and safe keeping for your rods 👌

Haya you could put some PVC piping on the side or I side the canopy for fishing rods might look abit horey but itl keep them safe, just find the right size attach and away ya go lol

You can get a long straight box to go along the inner top of the canopy like my mom has in her rig to hold your rods and a wall mount for the boards

Look on line for trimtex spay cans it might help with the carpet coming off. It’s a product that I have used for putting steel externals on villaboard when I was plastering. It’s an adhesive but it’s a strong bond all you have to do is spray it on both surfaces and make sure you get it in place pretty quickly because it takes 10 seconds to bond and it is solid bond. Have you noticed that the rear wheels are tracking different to the front wheels and people have asked Toyota and other specialist and no one knows why it’s built this way.

Roof rack for your board, with a enclosed tube for your rods offset to one side of the roof.

mans videos are awesome keep up the sick shit keep being unique thats why your loved by many x

You might want to check on one of those spray on Rhino Coatings for the interior of your box. I live in the Southeast U.S. and gets as hot here as it does in your area. I've never seen any of it melt or get sticky in the heat.

Brodie for the height issue on the pullouts from the canopy, get a CLEARVIEW drop down cook top/ pantry. Make the height lower to you but also raise up for storage

Put some tubes in the roof of the rear storage area for your rods to go in. Check out The lateral line ,RU-vid channel for the rod storage in their boat. Love the ride. Chur bro

For your Rods mount pvc tubing with slots for reels mounted on top. And for your surf board. Make a Hammock out of old prawn net that can dry and sit under your rods. An make a big wine rack to fit 2 Dive Tanks with a rubber strap to hold them down.

Hey mate make a board rack to hold 2 boards on the inside roof of the board compartment where board is in vid👍 flip board upside down brackets each side buy at bunnings..... mad land styda 🤙

For the boards and rods. Had hooks from the holes on the piece on the left . Will hold you boards and rods up off the floor and you gain more space

PVC tubes for the rods mounted at the top of the compartment will get them off the floor.For the boards use PVC to build a rack to put inside the compartment covered them with insulating tape in key spots to protect the boards and keep it from sliding around.

Get some rod holder mounts or hangers for your rods and then some hooks mounted on the wall of it and jus some bands or straps to hold ur board up to em

the rods in holders on the back, board strapped to the side of the canopy, frees up the whole thing for whatever you want. Like a spear gun rack, freezer, air compressor to control bag pressure and run tools, tv, Internet via Starlink, full on bush command center. As for mods, air suspension for the ski trailer, Garrett g series turbo for a smoother torque curve and faster spool, and a way to bring your intake air temp down on those 40+° days. Air to water intercooler right before the throttle body, meth, nitrous, something. Even the gold heat tape on the charge pipes, compressor housing, and intake would help.

A great fishing rod holder which can be attached to your roof rack is the Rhino Rack Ski and Fishing Rod Holder. Doesn’t take up much room and super easy to use 👌🏻

Build a upper shelf above where your surf board is to slide your rods in unharmed . You could prolly hook a few bungie cords , front ,back ,and middle and make a little hammock style holder for your rods

I know you love to leave your rods rigged so you need to counter for the impetus the weight of those reels adds to the way the rods will move underway, ideally you would have them reel forward tip back if you wanted to store them loose. sideways they get smashed. I opted for pvc pipes on the roof, I had 2 for rods, one for water with a tap and by drilling a hole through the cap and pipe I could easily secure the rods with a padlock, If you insist on sideways storage you need to divide that space into a forward board rack, wide enough for the board and curve but cut out for the fins, you could almost go 2 high if you tiered the slots which would separate the fins, like brickwork, 1 low, 1 high, 1 low for your 3 main boards, with high density foam at either end to protect the pointy bits and lock them in place. Behind that make a separate vertical slot wide enough for your widest reel, with XHD clamps on the rear (stronger) wall base, middle and tip, and rack them tip, butt, tip, butt, bottom to top, I reckon you could get 5 in that vertical space but if you wanted all butts the same end maybe 3, bolt the suckers in. For the carpet, theres gotta be the right glue for that heat, shouldn't be hard to patch up.

a good quickfix for rods is a 12cm PVC pipe with threaded endcaps in whatever length you need fastened to the roof rack. you can even get lockable endcaps that can be padlocked for theft security.

The table being so high.. I mean.. yeah.. no one really thought it through right? 😂 Still an awesome car. Happy for you.

Velcro(?) straps and clips on the back wall of the canopy for the surfboard and the rods

Awesome honest vid Awesome much respect

For the fishing rod there is a cylindrical metallic tube that you attach to your truck.... Now for the boards you can get a board holder or something like that and just put it on your roof... I recon that it will look absolutely fire🔥🔥🔥🌅

A length of pvc pipe capped at both ends makes a really good diy rod holder when mounted to the side of your roof racks or canopy. Only problem is that you cant have the reels on them

Love the vids, I think u need to get a rack for your surf board that goes inside the back because if it goes on the top the board will bake in the sun

Ngl saw this on Insta and just had to come and watch love it brody!!

I might be the odd man out and yes I'll keep watching no matter the content, but on your main channel, what really drew me in to follow was watching you guys out spear fishing and generally alot of under water video that just looked so peaceful. I'd love to get some more of that content but I could be the odd man out on this too.

Hahahaha the old toyota handbrake...non existent after any water...onya brodie living the dream and bloody well deserved man!

You should be able to get a drop down fridge slid modified or have a similar slide made to fix the problem of the bbq / table being to high.

The hand break part, when I parked my car at slope area, after the engine stopped, I set the gear stick to 1st gear (or may be any gear) and it did the job, worth to try I think.

Brodie is the most appreciative RU-vidr

Just have someone fab up a roof rack specifically for boards and rods. Such a dope ride

get a roof box welded up for the rods and mount the surf boards up there as well. make sure they are secure and lockable. not sure if youve got a ladder yet

Great vid bro !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well done 🙂. Got a 2018 79. Lots done to it and it’s a freakin’ beast. Main use, a farm truck. Those grandtreks they come with are rubbish. Put ko 2s on and they’ve been good. Cheers buddy 🙂

Saw a 79 series with I think were ski pole holders, but he used them for fishing rods. Looked mint and you would still have room for a rooftop tent

I don’t know what they are called but I know there is some rod holders which come above the roof of the car from the front and lay on the top, plus adding a roof rack to store your boards and for the rods to lay on would be very good. Just a suggestion but cheers

Got an idea for ya rods mate. Hang them in the ceiling of ya canopy. Get some rod socks to protect ya rod blanks, some hooks to hang the rods an Velcro to fasten them in tight so they don’t fall. 🤙 love the channel, keep rippin and continue being you we love it.

Where you have your rods get some 100mm pvc pipe with screws ends on keep the rods in there you have to take the reels off screw the pipe on the side wall

Just buy some rod holders for your bull bar. I use them and I’ve travel days with them on the their and have no issues at all.. just gotta watch out for theft of course and get hockey straps to tie the board down to the roof racks

Hey mate I highly recommend the bush company for a roof top tent they are great and I think it would suit your needs !

Bodie the pull out at the back is perfect height for you and Victoria put a cutting board and stainless steel top on there they are really great tents that hook on to the back for cover will go great with your tent
