Dude, did I just see an Isuzu on the same trail and on the same video as a Suzuki Jimny? Or perhaps you are unaware of the decisions from the World Courts and The Star Wars High Council, ruling that only one vehicle off road can use the letter "Z" in their name. It doesn't matter how much lipstick that you put on a pig...it's still a pig. Just kidding, really enjoyed your video, the camping and the comradery, but mostly the Jimny... thank you for posting.

Watagans is a beautiful place. I stay off the harder tracks though. Tried Creek Road once and turned around where you tried to winch. 3 near stock vehicles with no winches, no way in hell we were going to make it. Personally I don't see the fun in doing things that may damage your vehicle. I would rather park up and walk the tracks/trails. Also the main waterfall is Gap Creek Falls. I have not done the Abbott's Falls walk yet but will be soon.

an epic track! (and that kid always looking at his PC???) I remembered when I was that age and we climbed on tracks like this one in an old CJ3 Jeep from 1955... my region in Patagonia looked a lot like Tassie, same trees, same fog, same rain, but with volcanoes and snow like in NZ. Nowadays it is quite another story, most of these tracks are not used any more since they are in protected wildlife zones, which I think is the right thing to do. Luckily we still have plenty of room with really wild tracks in other places, but I would not be driving myself anymore, I will pass the responsibility to the next generation, which has the energy and endurance... I`d rather go trout fishing (although a "Suzu" is on my wishing list for Santa)

Also the tracks and mounts and roads in the countryside are completely covered in snow!For me the Suzuki Jimny is a good his 4x4 SUV!

All three exceeded my expectations, particularly Jimny but I've been driving Sierras and Jimnys since 1998, so I know what they do. Sierra was underpowered post-2009 Jimny was 30% more powerful and I never got stuck for power. I want to Supercharge my Jimny, using a Jetski supercharger kit. This 1500 cc Jimny is great. Don't forget old Vitaras had 1500cc motors.

It is a petrol after all, got to drive it differently, lots of clutch control and riding it even, plus higher revving. With a heavy duty clutch tho, it changes the dynamics again, can work friction point more like a diesel, so much more bite. The HD single plate exedy is much cheaper than say a Hilux to, which is what I’ve downgraded from. HD clutch helps for towing to. I tow my 10 footer to some very remote creeks and billabongs, the track is to tight for anything bigger. I was going to buy side by side atv to tow it, but sold my Hilux instead and got a Jimny, was the same price as an ATV with air con cab 3 seater. Still got to drop $10K on the Jimny from factory for it to compete with a side by side. But it really can go nearly everywhere, very impressive little car, don’t even need winch when others do.
