4x4 TrekOZ, off-road gear and good times. My channel covers, four wheel driving, chatting about off-road gear, camping, some fishing, a little cooking and good times. The plan is to talk to the camera like I am talking to you. My longer trips are more about the journey than the destination, staying one or two nights in each spot chatting as we go. Currently I work full time with retirement coming mid 2025. Until then my trips will be monthly, post retirement, I'm planing on living on the road for large parts of the year. I do my best to post 3 or 4 vids each month, post retirement I'm aiming to post twice each week. Welcome, I hope you enjoy. You can find me on Facebook, Instagram and RU-vid. Just search Wayne Groomes, Land and Bay Fishing or 4x4 TrekOZ Overland. Thanks for watching.

Your production values have jumped to another level, Wayne. Brilliant! The bog holes remind of my time out West in oil search. We bogged some LC utes to the tray at times. Mad deep stuff that might only be 30 metres wide but with no other route. Problem is, the bulldust becomes a soupy glue and just sucks vehicles in. Once again, Wayne, you've given us brilliant footage and a great story. Thank you.

Just discovered your channel yesterday Wayne. Love the content and your great steady approach. Sorry that your Engel fridge is a bother. I've had my 39 litre Engel for 23 years now and it hasn't missed a beat: top opening though! Safe travels, Antony.
@CanopyCampingAustralia
@CanopyCampingAustralia 2 года назад
Agree top opening Engels are very good. Had one for a very long time. Thinking I just scored a lemon with this one.

So you’re packin one of the newer models there Antony 😂 I’ve got one here, it’s older than 30 years & it’s outlived 4 rigs, over 700,000km and been through Asia & the Middle East. I’m starting to think it’s going to outlive me 😂…….I vaguely remember it to be a 39 litre but I couldn’t be 100% sure. I’m going to build a new rig soon and am actually going to relegate it to the position as my secondary fridge……I just can’t travel without it, it’s become a bit of a lucky charm. I’m not really liking the front mount fridge but I appreciate why Wayne is running one.

That red country is great. Wayne, By the way the vehicle is bouncing around indicates a good load, but you are taking it slow to see what the desert has to offer. The trip will be a memory once home but I can tell you, a bit of red will fall or wash off the ute and those good times will come flooding back. Thanks.

20:20 (I'm doing that comment as I watch thing again...) The first time I saw a huge flock of Budgies was driving between Longreach and Winton on my way to the (at the time) being constructed Century Zinc mine up North of Camoweal in the latish 90s. But there weren't hundreds. I'd estimate the flocks were easily in their thousands. But my memory may be exaggerating the numbers. But I remember huge clouds of them at sunset, flying like Starlings across the paddocks. An amazing sight.
@CanopyCampingAustralia

I worked on the border near Camoweal 10 years ago but never saw budgies. I remember it well due to the heat at the time.

In regards to the bogged part. This is why tracks get destroyed. 4wds going in there when areas are wet. Parts of state/national parks are closing down tracks due to damaged done by 4wds. It's the morons going in parks when it's raining or been raining and rip up tracks.

totally agree, they completely fuk them up. My father used to do lots of inland trips...in a falcon 500, (not the Simpson) however all those places he used to go without incident are now 4wd only because of...the 4wheel drives.

You have obviously never driven the Simpson as the "tracks" change every year. ( If you drive the "Coldon Track" there is none). I have driven it 12 times.

Those “watermelons” are indigenous to South Africa. Their local name is karkoere. They are bitter as hel and readily crosses with watermelons. That is where the modern round watermelons come from. Much more hardy but never as nice as the old types. They are fed to cattle in drought, but can make the milk bitter too. They come up wild in our corn fields on the farm in SA.

17:15 These melons have high concentrations of a chemical that is toxic to most mammals. They somehow made their way to Australia around the same time as the Afghani folks were bringing camels into Australia. There is another, smaller melon that grows out West as well. I'm unsure about the edibility of the smaller one though. Up in the Far North, there is a small melon-type plant that the Chinese brought into Australia. It is ripe when the outer skin becomes hard and is edible once it falls from the vine. But it has more of a shell than a skin. Quite bland, but provides moisture and some vitamins and dietary fibre. I have no idea what they're called and have only ever tasted them a few times.
@CanopyCampingAustralia
@CanopyCampingAustralia Год назад
Lol. I absolutely regretted licking that melon.

22:10 I'm going to talk to Dometic and recommend you as an ambassador! I am glad you're not 'sponsored' by Engel, and give your honest opinion. I'm certainly no expert but I've met and known a lot of off-roaders, tourists, and people who live off-grid. Engel is one brand that seems to evoke some rather negative comments and emotions. Oh, and I'm talking over 25+ years. Me? I'm povo. I've been running a Kings brand dual lid (reversible) dual-zone 75 litre fridge in my bus for close to 12 months now I think. It's on 240 of course but it has run flawlessly. I'll see what happens when I get on the road and it starts getting some bumps and grinds and runs on 12V. But for now, it has just about paid for itself already, and is only now building up a bit of frost. I'll give it a clean this weekend.
