Tv is dead.... He's far better off here in youtubeland where he can do/make/produce/say/.... whatever he wants :) To be honest, where I live (Belgium), tv has become utter shite... (Except for some high quality documentaries at times).
I actually disagree. I have seen dozens of Fishing and 4WD online shows to go TV. Sadly, TV is a business... And most shows become a sell out. I don't blame the them for it, its just how it is. I'd like to see Ronny be a real pioneer in the online format So many TV channels have gone online anyway. Keep all the control, and keep making what YOU want Ronny. There are revenue streams for online content, there is support from manufactures and viewers and ads and value adding. Anyone can watch RU-vid on any device and from any location at anytime. TV is dead by comparison.
its nice too see people off roading responsibly and not thrashing the life out there trucks and destroying the lanes, youre truck looks good with out the canopy! keep up the good work 😄👍
Hi Ronny. You know that you have the most popular videos here in Norway, when it comes to offroad? It is very fascinating to watch your trips and your car off course. On the behalf of the offroad club we wish you a great season, and we are looking forward to your videos. We are planning a trip to Australia, just to drive offroad, and after watching all off your videos, we are really looking forward to this trip. Have a great time, and thank you for sharing your videos with us.. Greetings from Norway. Jan Sverre.
I love your videos and I am so jealous of your truck I wish Toyota offered a good basic trucks in the USA. But I have to say I like the look of the truck with the canopy.
Heck yeah! I'm looking to buy a diesel, but have to decide between Ram, Nissan, Ford, and an expensive import. There's nothing Toyota to speak of, unless you look at the tiny 1980's models. Think I'm going to end up with a very unconventional 4x4 Ram build- and boy, it's going to be expensive.
+adam hunt we just need more options and mid sized diesels in the first place. Shouldn't have to get a 2500 HD and or f250 and up just to have diesel as an option. The American market really doesn't see how much potential there would be if they offered more cars/trucks in diesel.
Zach Novosad Also all our politicians harp on about environmental impact, why don't they promote building and buying diesels- they're way more fuel efficient and burn cleaner. But the common misconception is that they are worse, because of the occasional soot cloud.
I think the thing I enjoy the most is the trucks aren't huge, tube-framed abominations riding on Rockwells and 44s. Shows that you can still wheel with a regular, decent 4x4 (With some well-thought out modifications, of course).
Thanks for the update on the general grabbers. How about a 12 volt fridge/freezer round up? Get your friends to to talk about what they like or dislike about the size and brand they are using. ARB/Engle/National Luna/Weaco. It's a big purchase for a lot or us. Thanks Ronny.
I have the same Arb fridge and all I love it. my only gripe with it is if you stuff it full the top layer doesn't get as cold. but that's more my fault than the fridges. I did not know that you can leave it to the elements. Good to see it still works after that rain shower in your vid. I did buy the insulating bag for it. Made a huge difference in the cycle time on the compressor.
Watching your videos made me buy a Toyota land cruiser ! can't be happier with it, thank you for the great uploads. Always an education to watch your videos!
watching these videos makes me sad... we can't get those Land Cruisers here in North America... bloody shame. awesome video... great slow motion shots and your time lapse sections are great...
At around 27:38 I loved your "tree clearing". Here in the Pacific North West of the US, most folks I go out with carry chain saws for down trees. It's such a common occurrence I've thought I needed to learn how to use one. I've learned a bit in my last few outings, but those chain saws frighten me. A great uncle of mine lost his leg to gang green infection from "kickback" from a chain saw... So I give them great respect. I figure if I can't hand-saw it out or winch it out of the way...maybe I'd better turn around. Some day I'll man up and buy a chain saw and learn to use it safely....some day.
great video ronnie. hope you read most of your comments. love watching these videos. this one had great captured footage and i always like to hear reviews on tire pressure and things youve seen experienced with trail riding/overlanding. Cheers from the USA in FL. im a true fan.
+FordFoX4 I read every single comment but randomly reply to as many as I can depending on how much time I have 😉 thanks for the comment and feedback. Thanks for watching as well 👍
Think we'll chuck some bucks your way on Patreon Ronny! Always very enjoyable and you've put together some very good productions. Would like to see more of your good home grown video productions mate. Well done to you, dad and the team (although no Torben this trip huh? 🤓). Just waiting now for Part II of the Cape to Cape trip so shake a leg! Cheers again from WARWICK WA
When adjusting PSI you should take into account weight of vehicle "load" and tire construction "number of plies". An eight or ten ply tire will not flex as much as a 6 ply at the same psi.
All Fired Up Paintball I'll have to disagree. That Jeep is driven daily, and they have some tight regulations in Australia. It's already performing very well as is, but it just needs a tiny amount of more clearance, not a massive lift.
Hey Ronny, You should really consider coming to qld and doing the 5 rocks track I think you would enjoy it! It’s just behind a beautiful beach just like most of your videos are, pretty similar anyway! Regards, Flynn.
#allthelikes What a great bunch of vehicles and also amazing video quality as always. If I was on the other side of the world I'd totally run a trip with you gents.
Hello from California! Love your videos! Some of the best production quality for this genre on the web. Thank you! I would love to see more Nissans(R50 Pathfinder/Terrano) and classic vehicles as well. On a side note- the beard suits you well
+FlamingTurkey it was a down hill (slightly) section and there were marks on the tree from contact by out her vehicles which indicated that speed might push me into the trees.
At 32:02 ish, I love seeing the Kangaroo out in the road...here in the NW of the US we have deer and or Elk that like to run out in front of us like that. It's never fun when it happens to you, but I appreciate seeing that its a universal problem. Also, all you huddled around the fire...what's it like 15C there? seriously... :-)
Now im just really waiting to see what you do with the truck, i want to see the new set up but good video Ronny i enjoyed it a lot, when you do your new truck video can you show how your truck works if you get water into it because i went on a trip in my Nissan hard-body and got water on the computer and well had to get a buddy to take me how wasn't fun at all. Last little thing i bet your getting better fuel eco by taking off the back section haha :)
Hey mate, quick question: why did you leave the Jeep last in line? I'm quite new to offroading, but it seems to me better to leave the "less prepared" cars (smaller tires, lowest clearance, less experienced driver, etc) more to the point, maybe 2nd or 3rd cars, as the guys with big tires end up chewing the track, from my experience, the track that is relatively hard when the first cars goes by, is a mud pit when the last leaves. What do you think? Also, thanks for the excellent videos, they helped me a lot starting going 4whelling!
