- Pretty upsetting. 4wd 24/7 went out of their way to take down our latest video because it had 10 seconds of 4wd Action footage in it. Now we have a copyright strike on our channel. This wasn't an automated system, this was them going out of their way to take the video down.
Sharing this because you guys deserve to know the truth, thanks for sticking by us 💛
if wanna support us on you rig you can get yourself a Aussie Arvos sticker, they are $5 free shipping Australia wide

Why are 4x4s and 4wding so popular at the moment? i hope you enjoy this! it was very different style as we can not leave home but i think its quite an interesting topic and i'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments on how you were introduced to four wheel driving!

4wds isn't just a vehicle. It's a way of life.
Most of my cherished family memorys were made while in a 4wds. And I'm happy to say that it will be passed on to my children
That's so cool to hear, good on ya Dylan! 🤙
Oh yeah when you go away and have a day of tough tracks and set up a camp and look over yr rig... you name them and they are more than just a car, she's brought me home from over 100 trips away
What a great video. Very humble. I like the way you included, payed hommage and showed respect to the other youtube channels that inspire us all.
Shame 4wd 24/7 can't see it that way.
Thank you, honeslty those words mean a lot, cheers for the support mistymountainhop!
I would have thought 4wd 24/7 would be happy with the extra promotion. Keep up the good work mate!
Agreed, real shame when surely it would do nothing but help them as the vid was showcasing the community, its left a sour taste in my mouth tbh when it seems to me they (4wd247) are more interested in the $$ than the community.
@@stevemcmanus2466 You would think that wouldn't you? I agree 100 percent. There was no reason at all for that strike. However I wouldn't have known of this channel had they not done it. I strongly dislike it when channels get to big for their britches and start doing this sort of thing. And I do blame them because they should know what's going on with their channel.
@@consaka1 Honestly same here. If it werent for the strike this video wouldnt have popped up on my radar. Great vid tho!
Mate, as a big 24/7 fan, I have to agree with most others here in saying poor form 24/7. There is more than enough room in this market, especially for a young bloke just starting out. This is the problem with getting big and becoming "trending". The business ends up with more staff and more costs and before you know it, you have a whole production team and part of their job is smashing all competition to their product. i.e. Shauno, Graham, Jocko and the boys. I think you hit the nail on the head when you said, "don't get up Shauno etc...". You are more then likely right about the reason for the strike.
Having said that though, with the small amount of footage you appear to have used and the fact that you were using it to COMMENT on the 4WD industry over the years in Australia I would say that you have a very good case of fair use.
In its most general sense, a fair use is any copying of copyrighted material done for a limited and “transformative” purpose, such as to comment upon, criticize, or parody a copyrighted work. Such uses can be done without permission from the copyright owner. In other words, fair use is a defence against a claim of copyright infringement. If your use qualifies as a fair use, then it would not be considered an infringement.
Either way, good on you for the effort and for taking a leap on something you obviously passionate about. You get a sub from me:)
Thank you Ro! really appreciate you taking the time to write that, ! yeah look it sucks but its just a bit hard to try and fight this legally which is what i would have to do to get the strike removed. i definitely believe its fair use, just a bit scary trying to take on a huge media corporation with actual legal teams etc. but thanks alot for your comment and support Ro, it means the world to me :) cheeers
most big shows like 24/7,are for adverts,parts,not 4x4ing.i watch more u.s vids,,there real..not reality tv bs..
@@phantomwalker8251 cant believe u just called 4x4 24/7 bullshit
@@phantomwalker8251 Just an infomercial for he who has a 250k 4WD.
24/7 has become infotainment filled up by advertising and they are pretty hostile to any brands not in their quiver...
I’ve got mates that bag my fourby, because it’s so slow off the line. I tell them, you can go fast, I can go anywhere
dam straight 💪
Like the ricer owner with a huge turbo with 20lbs of boost and nitros bagging a stock V8 and the ability to beat one... cool, put a huge turbo with 20lbs of boost on the V8 and see what happens: motorcycles much the same, Harley’s are for plodding along and enjoying a slow pace, they don’t go fast, don’t handle or even stop all that well, sports bikes are for hooning and even a 600cc will flog a built 2l Harley engine, there’s no comparison and there shouldn’t be... You buy you like, want, can afford and enjoy and then when you’re old like me you’ve likely had a bit of everything and maybe still do: point, you or at least “I” don’t enjoy my vehicles any less because I’m 65 years old, I’ve actually enjoyed them more over the past five years than at any other age and they all get used... and abused as intended.
I can go fast anywhere..... Anywhere there's a road, no need to go off the road when roads lead everywhere in this country hahahaha
I put a rb25 in my patrol, 300hp on 33" tyres. Now I'm just as quick as a gt86, but I'm twice the weight and can go anywhere. Would of looked funny with kitted out partol for touring and roof top tent, chopping p platers "race cars"
@been there done that also "lifted because fat chick's can't jump"
I own an 83 Supra and an 05 MR2-s
I used to own a 93 GQ Patrol (TB42E) - and while it consumed the fuel - I still really miss it. When you're bored on your drive home and decide to go home via some random bush track? End up with your rig totally covered in mud? man - loved that.
Copyright claim is bs, but you will probably end up with more followers as a result of it. I found this channel from 4wd 24/7 and am now subscribed.
Oh hell yeah! well that's some good news! cheers mate, welcome :)
I agree 100% with you and now subbed watched this one the ome was taken down as well and it's bull.
That copyright strike is utter bogus and violates Fair Use and other RUclips's rules I'm sure. (Even WORSE if it was manually human activated and not just an automated bot shortcoming). I have UNsubscribed from 4wd 24/7 and Subscribed to you here instead.
I’m one of the new ones ;-)
Same mate, almost makes me want to unsub 4wd 24/7 for stooping so low and haven't watch an episode since I seen this episode.
I've been into 4X4's my whole life and the worst thing that's ever happened to the scene is it getting popular, it's what's brought all the negative attention and led to closing tracks ect. I think the thing that's really wrecked it is these modern 4X4's that drive like cars, it used to be that you only drove a 4X4 if you really wanted one and were prepared to live with the compromise, now you don't have to, a new 4X4 drives as well as a new road car meaning far too meany people have them are far too meany people are out in the bush and along with them come all the inevitable regulations that go with the popularization of it. The popular RUclips channels and the associated media also have a lot of the blood on their hands in this regard too and i cant see it going anywhere but further down the negative road from here.
As much as I've only got into 4wd/camping, in the last 3 years, I have to agree with you.
I deliberately go to remote places to camp and enjoy the beauty and tranquillity of the Australian bush in a pretty much stock standard 76, and arrive at a camp site to find young (and old) dickheads revving the shit out of their vehicle, along with their stereo system blasting out whatever bogan fm station .
Leaving shit all over the place, and yes I do mean SHIT.
When they do leave the camp site, they usually have to let everyone nearby know how small their dick is by the over compensating wheels and massive phallic UHF antennas .
The same types that rip up and gouge out all the tracks, thus making it inaccessible for others.
You get the picture, I'm sure.
Great video. Well done. One other major contributor to the younger group switching to 4WDs was the introduction of the hoon laws. People quickly learnt that there wasn’t the level of scrutiny out in the bush and they can have more fun legally with all their mates out in the bush.
Definitely got a good point on that one John! cheers!
Just wanted to make a second comment addressing copyright on RUclips. Basically, its complicated
I know people only think I have been around for a little bit but trust me i have been heavily interested with what RUclips is about from the early days. RUclips copyright is interesting and I am no expert but I have really tried to stay up to date.
So the RUclips copyright system essentially works as an honesty system, it works well but its never perfect. So essentially if someone has put a video on RUclips and someone uses that footage for fair use. 100% legal and fine.
So the issue is not copyright but more what classifies as fair use. There was a huge case that went on for years between H3H3 and another content creator, H3H3 ended up winning in court which was a huge step for defining what fair use is.
You know those reaction channels? The ones that dont offer a lot of their own original content along with the original video itself, technically that's not fair use due to them not adding enough editing, original content or using them to develop a discussion.
In regards to this specific video I believe he is well within fair use as he used the content to further develop the discussion and strengthen his points, he also used very minimal. I also didnt see the original video so im not sure if there was direct credit to their youtube channel but it seems like there would of been.
A strike is VERY different from a claim. A claim is someone saying hey you used something of mine, id like to get all the revenue you earned from it and youtube will also not promote this video as much. A strike is saying you 100% ripped their content and you're channel gets a bad name with RUclips themselves meaning they will not promote you're videos or your channel as much as they used to. Also 3 strikes in a month and your channel is gone forever. Not really fair if they are not legitimate strikes.
4WD Action is not 4WD 24/7. 4WD Action is owned by a media company, 4WD 24/7 is something else.
To me its concerning that they have claimed this, I hope its just a mistake (Which it very well could be) and not a company thinking they can walk over individual creators.
This is the RUclips game, it's very different from TV
If that is the case then a strike is super harsh, over-reaching as it were and a claim would have been sufficient until the OP edited the content. Poor tactics I'd say.
4wd action 4wd 247 dont want the little guy to succeed. It happens all over the world... big corperations come in and crush the little guy think woolworths and lil bennys grocery store... 2 more strikes and your out mate... for life.
Adam, i would love to talk to you about a problem i am having with youtube (nothing to do with this great channel)
I didn’t see the original video, but if such large chunks of the content are used with the original sync sound and minimal voiceover during those parts like this new version, I can understand why they would arc up. Some of those commercials may be old, but used in their entirety. Music etc. too many things in this video seem to go a bit too far. But yes, agree, probably 4wd247 could have just chucked the boy’s a message and it could have solved a bit of heartache.
I wouldn't lose any sleep over what Product Placement 24-7 think
HAHAHAH thanks Ash! cheers mate
Such a shame this had to be re uploaded. At least it’s a good excuse to watch it a second time haha. Great video guys
Thank you Riley, true blue legend💛
Aussie Arvos click bait title and boring af. Focus on filming your own vids and stop complaining about everyone else. You kids these days with blaming everyone else for your short comings is getting old. Good luck with your future endeavours, I believe you will be quite successful due to your passion. Eyes forward mate and don’t look back 🤙
Hi, guys love your channel as an old bloke it's great to see young lads having a go. If I can make just one suggestion That would be for you to talk about the responsibilities of 4X4ing. Seeing as you connect with the younger generation (and the OLD like me). it would be an excellent opportunity to talk about not destroying tracks, Picking up your rubbish, not smashing bottles on campfires and so on. I feel that your influence will help keep tracks open. Teaching 4x4 ethical responsibility is so important for the younger generation. Keep up the good work
I'm from USA. I literally thought Subaru was built in Australia, because Paul Hogan was doing all the commercials in the states in the 80's..
@T DoubleU Yes Crocodile Dundee was huge over here. After that he was the spokesperson for all the Subaru commercials. I was a teenager and not driving yet. Because of those commercials, it wasn't until I was in my early 20's that I found out Subaru was from Japan. 😂 Lolololoi
You want to blow the minds of your friends over there? "Throwing a shrimp on the barbie" is a complete fabrication and lie only done for the US market. We call them prawns and usually eat them after they've been cooked in salted water. Often by the kilo with a cold beer or 6. Yes they can be stir fried, skewered or thrown on a BBQ if you like. But there's nothing like kicking back, peeling the shells off prawns and scoffing them while you chat and drink beer with your mates or family. :D
@@allan-shephard Here's some food factoid for you. Burritos are not from Mexico, were invented in Texas. Hamburger an American staple, invented in Hamburg Germany.
@@Hammy1TV Ha. Thanks :D
Wait what??? Subarus aren’t Australian?? Really??
Saw the vid first time round, and thought it was nice of you to give them credit for inspiring others and increasing the popularity of 4WDing. Which is what they say they are trying to do.
I thought you were giving Supacentre a bit too much credit. But with the number of Kings awnings I see rollin around...(sigh)...maybe you're right.
As a car enthusiast who grew up in the 70s/80s, and lived through all of those car phases that you covered in the video, I think you guys nailed it. Really well put together and well presented.
I had a Commodore, then sold it and bought a 4WD in 1996. Actually, that whole video may have been made about me. I was also one of those young blokes who couldn't afford a GQ Patrol back in the 90s. But I've got one now. And it makes me smile every time I get in it.
Thanks for the video. Really enjoyed it. Thanks for putting it back up and for being straight about what the problem was.
Thank you Adam! good to hear your story! and thanks for your support, means the world!
Especially with today’s roads all the potholes and speed humps it’s more practical and comfortable to have a 4wd drive
HAAHHAHA good point there Nicholas!
Im from Massachusetts, USA and I 100% agree. Can't wait for my 2020 tacoma!
Only guy with a 4x4. Designated group taxi when we go into the city for concerts and such
Why have 107 people given the thumbs down? Keep up the awesome work guys!!
Thank you Kate!! not sure hahaha, but its all good :)
4wd 24/7 must be feeling threatened by the quality of the work put into this video. I was an avid follower of Shaun Whale and the 4wd Action crew but I must admit I’m quite disappointed that they would be so petty as to stir the pot over this.
Keep up the good work young fellers and don’t let anyone deter you or stop you from producing more great videos in the future
Thank you Daniel, really appreciate your words :)
Yeah my boss met Shaun at a petrol station and he walked over to say gday shaun didn’t even say anything back looked at him and looked away after that he don’t support them at all
Benn Russ yeah I wouldn’t be surprised by that at all, my 12 year old daughter asked him really nicely if she could have a photo with him at a four wheel drive show and he laughed as he said “no go away” and turned away from her.
@@boatcampingadventures1285 That’s pretty piss poor of him.
The video I never knew I needed. Such a great discussion and that strike is really uncalled for!
Awh thank you ValveBouncer!! really means a lot you saying that. cheers :)
Great video. The big wigs at 4WD 24/7 had better get their act together because this is not copyright infringement. If they start being idiots towards other channels it could cause them more harm than good.
Interesting to see the Australian perspective on this. I was a little surprised when he said 4x4 is new and mass produced in the 90s. Since the history is a little different here in the states. Also not used to seeing a 4wd video without any jeeps. I hope to tour the outback one day, it looks amazing.
You're absolutely right! It's pretty interesting that having a fast car was the aim for those getting their first car 15 years ago, but now the 4WD/large ute is so much more popular for those age groups. I think the Hilux or similar are popular for people a little older (30s) because they make a great work vehicle as well as an adventure vehicle for the weekends.
Maybe it's because we're feeling more cramped in the cities, with increasing populations and smaller houses, we feel the need to "get away" more often. There's got to be a bit of a measurable shift. A very interesting topic!
Mate you just described my life in two paragraphs. 4wd is my midlife crisis, having had the turbo sports car in my younger years, as well as the iconic commodore.
Too right about being cramped in cities. 10 years ago, was loving the big city living. Now give me the piece and quiet of the country.
I like 4x4'ing and have always loved it. The amount of adrenaline after completing an obstacle is far beyond any other activity you could imagine.
Your timeline coincides with our "4x4" time as well. Late 80's and Early 90's people in South Africa started exploring Botswana, Namibia and Mozambique and they needed modification. They started building things themselves and other people see the mods and also want similar things. And right there you have a new industry...
After this Covid is sorted, myself and my family will be leaving South Africa for a better place and Ozzie is one place we are SERIOUSLY considering. The lifestyle is similar, people have the same idea about outdoors and we would fit right in. I think it would be a great place to live 😁
Your more than welcome to come bro. There is a huge SA community in Perth.
Appreciated the use of interstellar on the acoustic so much. I originally subbed for the old school paj content because they are so underrated. I stayed for everything. Cool channel mate
awh thanks Jason!! means alot, love the paj hahaha! and yes the music from interstellar is incredible!
I can't believe they copyright striked this video, very lame, it's such a nice video... Sadly I think a little less of them now.
I've no idea if trucks were tougher back in the day, but jeez, people sure were! Bouncing in a series IIb Forward control over thousands of miles of back country tracks must have given them bottoms of steel! ;-)
HAAHAHA definitely! was a different time back then ahahh!
Definitely tougher back then. Most men of today are snowflakes worrying about their skinny jeans & body shaves driving a bloody mx5 with the wind blowing in their bleached blonde hair.😂😂👍
That old footage was great, especially the forward control Land Rover!
Thanks Charlie! yeah it's my Nan's footage off an old super 8 film reel! so cool to see how they got up to Cape York!
A surprisingly well made video. You're not a bad content maker. Shame on 4wd 24/7 but good on you for keeping the moral high ground. I think you'll pick up a lot of subscribers for that attitude alone.
Fantastic video mate, was thinking old 4wds will be the Nissan GT-R Toyota supra one day
yeah wouldn't surprise me ahah
Guys... 4WD 24/7 sold their soul long ago for the corporate buck. They are now cliché and boring, but they did recently demonstrate that the GQ patrol is worth more consideration. You and your content is currently so genuine it has given me reason to believe that there is actually some in the newer generation that still get it. How you decide to travel on the cash cow train in the future will write your script. For now, I would really enjoy a fire side chat with you and your crew. In fact, I would love to meet your Dad. He did a great job exposing you to opportunities, but at the end of the day, you are what you chose to be, so enjoy the ride. Your perception of the planet is not shared by many around you, but it suits me to a tee. Stay genuine. It is the trait so many others lost along the way, and it is the most saleable trait there is.
Yeh but if 4x4 is your passion and you want to make a living at it, How else does one do it and not sell out? The reality is simple economics. Or would you rather him suffer for his art?
@@aussiecue It stops being art when you sell out. In the long term it is authenticity that sells. Chasing quick bucks by selling clichés. Blah.
Thank you so much for the kind words stkas, i make videos because i love making them, and that's hows it's going to stay. cheers so much for your support
24/7 need banning for deceit.lies, propaganda. & ive told them that. its a bs show..
Great content mate. The copyright complaint isn't surprising. Something to keep in mind is Businesses like these have built a business on advertisers not having the expertise, staff and resources to create their own content. This landscape is changing as young people like yourself are learning about content creation, being creative and entertaining and as you enter the 4WD industry, opportunity to create commercial content at very little cost opens up. Think about this, a business spends say $100k on trips and advertising with them, what could a business do with that money and you as an employee? I present and make content for a living as a full time employee, in 2 years we've produced hundreds of video tutorials, marketing content etc etc for a fraction of the price in house, that we would had to have paid if we used a production company. You mate, are part of the future of commercial in house content creation, for every young person like yourself that ends up working for a business in the industry and given a chance to create content, there's one less business reliant on production companies and productions like theirs. From a business sense, you're a lot more than "just some guy that borrowed 10 seconds of video".
Thanks for the comment Camper!, really appreciate you taking the time to write that, yeah your definitely right, starting to understand the impact that this video has had! pretty crazy that something we just make in my room with my brother can have such an impact, but yeah your definitely right, but thanks for your words! means a lot ! cheers :)
I bought a old 4wd for $5000 about 4 years ago, spent close to $10000 on it so far. Best money I’ve ever spent. Plan on keeping it for years to come.
Dam straight man! it's a lifestyle!!
I use to be a 4wd sceptic then changed drastically.
Having a 4wd just adds a new dimension to holidaying eg beach driving…love it.
With a 270 deg awning, a car fridge & the ability to cook food it’s a game changer for me 👍
When 4x4 247 are threatened because you are better than them you have proven you are good.
Remember they have a big team with big money and still are threatened by how well you guys did this episode
Thank you Bruce 😂💛 really appreciate the support!!
Not to mention they have a silent sponsor Toyota hence the bias as fuck reviews then we called them on it the had to bring a nissan to the fleet and after more backlash they are talking of others
@@AussieArvos they hate nissans
@@stotty117 100% I have never seen such a Toyota bias haha. It gets cringey to watch because of it at times.
So you use others footage & wonder why you have an issue??? Graham is literally a NISSAN guy.. i dont understand how you could assume anything else..
Im 56 and first drove a landy when I was 5 or 6 been in the bush all my life and camped out since the 70s and still doing it now all my three children were camping before they could walk .and I'm still swagin it and will for as long as I can
Honestly one of the best videos I’ve watched on 4wd’s! Amazing, loved it
Oh thanks Paul!! really means a lot :)
Greetings from Honduras, nice vid! One cannot be complete without a 4WD! Cheers!
HAHAH definitely ! Thank you Medjai!! so happy to see views on the other side of the world! incredible !
Aussie Arvos Happy to oblige. GL m8!
Amazingly well done, informative video and spot on with everything mentioned. Kind of gave me goosebumps. I am a subscriber to 4wd 24/7 and have lost interest in their content. To much advertising and sponsors that it seems to take away from the original tone of the channel so its great to have a new channel to look at. Thanks 👍
Thank you Bianca! really appreciate the words! cheers! :)
I agree Bianca. Love their channel, but too much advertising now.
Four wheel drives have always been popular with the working men and women of Australia its a way of life and a hell of a ride!! My first baby was a 94 suzuki vitara she went hard and cost me next to nothing to run
Im 20 and I live in the us but my grand father had a Toyota Land Cruiser and that thing was amazing
Love it Joseph!! cheers
Great vid, but I can't help but feel that you missed how 4X4's took hold in Australia historically - even more than a lot of other places around the globe. My old man was driving a HJ45 for work when he was 19 in the 1960's. Since Toyota launched the Landcruiser / Land Rover launched their series 2 there's always been a big 4x4 community. And that was over 50 years ago.
Hi from Texas. Well done. Loved this video. I'm a rock crawling Jeeper myself.
I don't need to blame the 4WD 24/7 presenters and I won't. I love those guys. However, I also don't need to drive their corporate metrics, by viewing their content, and I won't. I've unsubscribed, from 4WD 24/7. I'm sure I'll look the channel up occasionally and see what's new, but I'm not willing to follow a company that pulls this crap. There is enough of this legal assassination already. The 4WD community should be different. We're all the same damned family.
Great video, by the way. I was just telling a friend of mine how good you guys are at explaining and instructing. Keep up the incredible content!
As someone who spent a lot of time in the Victorian High Country in the 1980s it's really interested getting a perspective from the new generation of 4WDers.
Cheers neil! You older boys have a lot to pass down to us young lads
Far better video without those stooges in it. I can't stand their over-acting and their personalities.
Still 10 times better than watching Ronny Dahl or built not bought.
@@hammatime94 Atleast Ronny Dull used impart some useful nuggets information every now & then, now Ronny just imparts nuggets.That other bloke was sort of watchable just to see what He would stuff up next, that said I don't watch either channel anymore.
@Maitre Mark That channel is all about sales, marketing and free gear and cars for them .. Isuzu, Toyota, Goodyear, Fulcrum, Ultimate, Kings and it goes on ...
I cant watch their channel. So much bogan overacting, destroying vehicles like children and marketing for their "good friends at.....".
I agree I can’t watch that channel anymore.
I'm forever grateful that the missus and I got to experience the last of the old Cape. Opening and closing gates along the way and the track winding between trees.
Great video, enjoyed watching it. Sadly with the explosion of popularity in 4wding has come the explosion of idiots out there doing the wrong things, leaving rubbish, lighting fires at the wrong time of year or leaving campsites with fires still burning and generally ripping up tracks and helping to get great places the majority enjoy and look after, closed down.
Spot on mate. And it leads to a proliferation of locked gates.
My personal opinion is the days of buying a manual 4x4 or any manual new car are numbered. Everything is auto these days and nothing against it at all as its personal preference but for someone wanting a decent manual 4x4 options really aren't huge even on the secondhand market these days!!
Loved the video! but I really wish the important aspect of picking up your own rubbish when out exploring and camping was mentioned in this vid. One of the biggest issues with the rise in 4x4 popularity in recent years is the pollution being left at campsites all around Australia. We know its only a small percentage of 4WD owners and I'm not saying its the fault of "P platers" because dickheads of all ages are the cause of this, but it definitely needs to be addressed more often to promote responsible 4wding and camping habits. Not just because its the right thing to do for the environment, but because no one wants to see 4x4 tracks shut down by the local governments. Another one I'm sure you boys would agree on is hooning. Too many dickheads wanting to impress on social media, are out there trying to do wheel-lifts around corners on roads and ripping donuts on tracks tearing them the fuck up. I mean its all good if you wanna do donuts on sand where the wind and water will erode the sand anyway, but that kind of behaviour is why cops are targeting and issuing hundreds of yellow stickers a year to innocent 4wd owners, as we are all sadly being put into the same demographic. Heres me hoping maybe yous legends will make a separate video to address those issues 👍
Thanks for taking the time to write that Leandro! yeah its definitely a big problem, I've seen it myself many times before, think it will catch up to us unfortunately if we don't clean up our act, i know its a small majority but yes, it affects everyone. thanks for your comment Leandro, much appreciated, cheers :)
My thoughts exactly.
Been 4WD since 1975. My first Toyota was a tray back,the Landcruiser club did not even have 200 members and it was the second largest club in the southern hemisphere. Went to Frazer Islandin 1975, you had to get permits to go inland off the beach there was know one on the island, We camped on Eli creek for days and did not see a sole. 45 years later and I still love going bush. It is a way of life. BTW excellent Vid.
Well Done.
Man credits to you, this is a really really good video. Ironically I was searching up 4WD-24/7 when I came across this video and I am so glad I clicked on a whim.
Congrats man on such a good vid, you’ve definitely got a subscriber in me. Keep up the really good work, we need more channels like this one!!
Fun fact. The gold and maroon Patrol around the 9:20 mark (from the ad going through the mine pit), my uncle owned that as an ex demonstrator/test import. Had a few things in it that normal ADM patrols didn't.
Love the land rover forward control footage. I wonder where it ended up.
Yeah man! old footage i scrapped of my Nans super 8 reel, incredible stuff got about 40 minutes of it. not sure where the old girl ended up
I have a theory which is about overland 4x4ing worldwide.
I am from the "Baby Boomer" era. Born in the late 50's into the 60's. We had it good..good jobs, bought houses etc. Now we are sitting on cash, looking at life with not too many healthy years left. Sick of a 2 week holiday in a Hotel hanging around the beach bar. So, what to do???
Go on what could be called an adverture. Buy a tricked up truck and spend even more money on stuff you don't even use or need.
After 6 years on the road travelling the world in my Troopy i meet more and more of these type of people everyday.
That's so inspiring! thanks for sharing Overland World. Life is short, gotta make the most of it!
I’m confused 🤷🏼♂️
What is with the headline vs what this video was about?
Check the video description
Here in the U.S. off-roading has always been around but overlanding has begun to explode! You can buy capable trucks, SUVs and Jeeps for cheap here too
Yeah would love to look into how it is for you guys over there! cheers for your comment Chief! :)
It wouldnt have hurt for them to contact you directly and sek you to remove their scenes from the video rather than hit the channel with a strike.
would of much preferred that, a strike sucks :/
Just as easy to reach out and ask for permission?
It wouldnt have hurt him to ask them if he can use the scenes
@@alakah1653 my thoughts exactly, it's only polite to ask someone's permission before using their stuff.
If someone has used the content that I had created without asking me I'd be pretty annoyed. There is a huge amount of time and effort that goes into filming and editing great content. BTW - nice little vid :-)
All I can say to others about this video is like and subscribe 👍
Really appreciate all the support David, cheers mate :)
i wouldn't take it personally mate. copyright has a thing called precedence where if they let one thing slide (even if it's as stupid as this) it can be used against them and seriously weakens their claim to the ownership of content if someone else starts uploading after they let you have it
Thanks Exgaves yeah you're definitely right mate, can see where your coming from
You're thinking of trademark, and I think it's a myth anyway. Copyright definitely isn't required to be enforced.
There’s a thing called fair use
For better or worse, fair use doesn't quite exist on this platform.
Only for the little guys it doesn’t. Fair use does exist and over time should take precedence over bullshit copyright claims, however long that might be..
I bought my first four-wheel-drive Nissan G 60 brand-new in 1975. Then we started to travel with my family 1st to Fraser island Northshore out west and Cape York. It was great. We never had the morning things you have. Today. We had an esky and sleeping bags and we had fun no restrictions, no permits easy living😊
A+ video love the stats and everything to support the claims to bad it was limited due to CR... hope all is well over there cheers from the USA!!!
Thank you Tyler!! really appreciate your support ! means the world!!
Well that title would have got you some more subscribers and definitely plenty of views. Glad I found this channel.
Thanks Jakkob!!
Now they’ve deleted every single comment supporting Aussie Arvos on their socials. Absolute children.
I seen that last night their latest video didn't have one comment in regards to their content it was all them being called out. Not one comment I seen violated any of RUclips's policys they were all just calling them out for their mistreatment. I feel with the public backlash they will realise this doesn't pass the "pub test" and cancel their claim.
I'm in the States and I can say that the Aussie boom in 4wding has been copied here all I can say is thank you! Y'all don't have 4runnera though so we got that! Also, the Victoria shut down is crazy in my opinion!
yeah fricking sucks man! haha stuck at home and cant leaver
You keep your 4Runners Francisco 🇺🇲 & we'll keep our V8 Diesel LandCruisers 😉✌️🇦🇺
Crazy but necessary.
I'm glad you're exploring different types of content. This one really had a defined story and kept me hooked the whole way, sucks that you got content claimed for what is obviously transformative and fair use, but I guess that's youtube now. Keep your chin up and although the claim is disheartening, never let it be an excuse to not pour your heart and soul into something like this again, because us as the viewer definitely felt it.
Thank you so much Dusty 💛 your words mean so much, its been a day mixed with emotions ahah, but you guys are great, cheers
@@AussieArvos No worries man, I know what it's like to have your creativity killed and I wouldn't wish it on anyone.
Years ago the Ford's and holden were strong enough to go bush. Used to do it in my XD. The roads weren't as rough though.
HAHAHA i know!! they even show it off in the old commercials ! really a tough old Aussie cars!
Great video guys! I agree, Shauno and Graham are great, but Roothy is the real icon here that changed the game. Back in the day Roothy handled all the video side of the 4wd action magazine, he put them on the map pretty much.
Great video. Just a quick fact check. I worked for Toyota in the early 80s. They had been mass-producing 4WDs for a long, long time at that point. Sir Leslie Thiess first brought Landcruisers into Australia when they were building the Snowy River Scheme.
I get flack for my zuk at times, but hey I can go places they couldn't dream of going!
The hilux and rangers of these days will have shat themselves well before 20 years is ticked. Far too many failure points from dpf issues to transmission failure, they just won't take the punishment.
LOL, no. My first car was a 67 Landy. It was 7 years old when I got it. Went to heaps of places all over Australia. It was a piece of unreliable crap. Crap steering, recirculating ball, LOL, Wanderlust steering. Crap twin leading edge brakes that didn't really work going backwards. Crap seats. crap interior. Still, had lots of fun. Give me a modern vehicle anyday.
@@borisjohnson1944 Everything was average in 67 but got a whole lot better during the 80's through 2008 depending. Went too far with gadgets and fancy bits that fail since then, too many failure points that you'll have no chance of sorting in the outback or in your own shed.
@@borisjohnson1944 you're 100% missing the point
They are made in Thailand.
DPF issues, who cares about the teething issues of carbon burning? Toyota have a fix and/or replacement warranty of 10 years and even so, the dpf has no bearing on anything serious.
The Ranger will (and is) have more issues and on record you would say that's a fair educated guess that it wont last as long, but its not a crap 4WD and should get through to at least 250k. The hilux is different ofcourse, everyone knows Toyota don't build for 250k, they build for 400k+.
Both are improved on previous models and built tougher than the 4wd's of yesterday, from improved chassis strength to mechanics right through to the diffs. The bodies on these new utes however are as soft as tissue boxes and thats probably an issue to you, but its not to blokes like me.
Watch 4WD videos on comparisons between old and new. The new kick ass on the old.
Some really good points you've made mate but, one thing that was missed,just the fact of cities expanding,smaller yards, so we buy 4wds to escape from the noise of neighbours and to stretch our legs.
Thats definitely a great point Rctrail!! thanks for sharing! :)
Also, old patrols are still being made in the United Arab Emirates.
I guess it's time to start importing 😂
HAHAHAH i reckon
Can you reallly buy a new gq over there wonder what tbe postage would be haha
The "Big End" at 4WD 24/7 is Shauno just FYI. He owns it.
mate, have a look at the early film of model t fords etc, there were no roads, they were all off road capable and thought about by everyone.
Look up oilfield Dodge . A promotional film of 1920's Dodge. No 4wd , lockers, mud terrain tyres & they drove the things that would have stopped a lot of modern 4wd vehicles.
Great video. Your dads landrover 2b in the 70s looked great.
Thank you TheSlimedShady!! appreciate it !! :)
Great work...keep up the good work...check out leyland brothers and how they did it
Thank you Mick! I will!! Cheers
Excellent video mate. First time watcher, now subscribed. Keep up the great content.
Thank you S1_TheGoodDr!!! really appricate your support mate! means the world!
keep up the content im sure that 1 dislike is 4wd 24/7 :kekw:
I just wish to go Off-Roading in the AUS. We do it differently here. No trail, we just go through the jungle.
HAHAHA wow! where are you from? just was looking at some videos on your channel!
@@AussieArvos im from North Borneo, Sabah, Malaysia. Come visit us.
Love my Pajero. When it was off the road for near 9 months I was going crazy. So glad to have it back now.
Glad to hear Mick!!!
Mine's still sleeping, since February after discovering it had burnt up some valves.
@@roshanchitan1997 Ouch mate. Mine went off the road in September 2019 and finally got fixed in April. Walking past it every day to climb into the wifes little Corolla sucked big time. So glad its back on the road now and supprised I was able to do the work myself.
@@MicksGarageDarts what happened to yours? V6 or diesel?
Mine is a 2.5td gen 2 manual.
i'm currently grinding the new valves again because the machine shop didn't do it properly. All valves leaked within 10 seconds of pouring gasoline in the ports. Disappointing considering the money they charged.
@@roshanchitan1997 Gen 3, 3.5L Petrol V6. Videos of it on my channel. I had to replace my timing and being on a pension I simply could not afford it. I was originally told the Clutch bearing was the issue so spent $1500 getting a new clutch installed only to have the same problem. I eventually got the money together and purchased a full timing kit including water pump, New set of Lifters, New spark plugs and leads etc etc and had a mate help me replace it all in my driveway. Also had to replace both front hubs so it all got done at once. I still have to replace the suspension as Ive added some new mods and the suspension has sagged (Battery, Fridge etc). Good part is now I know how to fix a lot of the stuff myself so if Im touring or even local I can buy the parts myself and fix many of the issues.
Why does every generation think they've invented the wheel ?
I'm 43 but I had an ipad when I was a kid.... it was called an Etch'a Sketch. Then we discovered Amiga!!
The Leyland brothers kitted out 4x4's in the mid 70's & showed Aussies a country most had no idea existed.
Mike & Margie Leyland also have a later series of outback videos on RUclips, well worth a look.
No-one made Australia look more beautiful.
4wd/ 24/7 , 4WDAction, EMG , 4wdSupaCentre will always be the Grubs of the Australian 4x4 industry. why do you think Pat Callinan and Roothy left the Company..
Entire Grub and shit content
started selling out.
@@AussieArvos you young fella's are to young to know what selling really is...
Your music choice was spot on for the eras and the vibes mate!
Great video. Grew up in the early 80's in the back of Hilux's and Mitsubishi's roo shooting out bush with the family and friends. Great times, but I would say that the 4x4's were still 'mass produced' well before the 90's as I remember them. Hell, even our old 2 door Jackaroo was a beast way before the Ford Territory. Subscribed and liked, fuck 4wd24/7, I'm just glad that you didn't put "o" on the end of every frigging name like those wankers. ( I still like their content, delivery leaves much to be desired sometimes.)
HAHAHAHAH oh thanks you so much Darth-KegRaider!! really appreciate you comment man! hahaha
You should be proud of that video mate. It was grouse. Really felt like I was just sitting back chilling with mates talking 4wds
so sad that we had to do this
yep :/
Being a country kid where every farmer had a vintage Land Rover, wether a IIA or a III 109” with the stout 2.25l petrol 4WDs we’re always a practical tool on the farm. To this day an adventure is pointing that stubby Birmabright clad nose west and pushing down the yellow lever. And yes, I’m still young but these old non synchro mechanical rigs are my passion. Still shows these new fancy pants rigs how it’s done even after 50 years!
No worry mates I seen the video before it went down and I still want that hilux. And maybe more
😂😂 awesome to hear mate, cheers for the support!!
Aussie Arvos ya welcome!
just discovered this channel AMAZING VIDEO!!!! I have a HDJ81 and i love it had it over 25 years now
i dont see what 4wd 24-7 are complaining about the kings gear they dont even use it s im not to sure what there on about
4wd 24/7 doesn’t use kings gear??? Might wanna have another watch mate :)
4wds have always been popular
Very cool video mates
Thanks Matt!!
In my opinion I think one point you missed was that road laws have gotten stricter and stricter and the people who were thrashing JDM nuggets and Aussie sedans (and wagons 🤙) have gotten over the police crack downs and harassment and for many years 4wds were over looked. Also many of the young guys who were driving Silvias, skylines, wrx’s, commodores, falcons and so on have now got family’s and their interests have changed. Thus adding to the 4wd market. At least that’s my experience
No your definitely right Turtle!! 100%
The 4wds of today wont be anywhere near as sought after as the 4wds of yesterday. The 4wds of yesterday were over engineered reliable and easy to fix. Todays 4wds are thin pieces of crap with paper thin chassis piss weak small over stressed motors and to many electronics to be reliable long term. They also rust at the drop of a hat
With the explosion of 4wding more places and tracks will be shut down, especially with the flogs of the "send it" generation. The tracks are being ruined at a rate of knotts that parks and wildlife will be forced to shut things down. You only need to look at where the houses are being developed all gated off... yet some flog 4wd owner has smashed the fence down to access an area. May as well enjoy 4wding it while it lasts....
Back in muh day... Bla bla bla
@@4R8YnTH3CH33F 😂 cute xox
Completely agree with krump.
keeping tracks open so people can see what we stand to loose...
Only been in the 4x4 game for 2 years
I’ve had all sorts of powerful cars from HQ monaro to XR6 turbo’s and a 300ZXTT....
But none have filled my thirst like my 98 Y61 patrol
The joy my daughter and I have gotten from this truck led me to spend 33000 overhauling her into a full on off-road beast with all the toys!
Though the 2020 patrol is uglier than a hat full of assholes and the old GU/GQ will reign supreme forever
Stopped watching that channel yonks ago due to their over acting! Time to unsubscribe now.
Well it's is that or they will become boring videos with nothing happening
@@tsakitx8190 they are boring now, same product placement and beer ads everytimr
@@dazgam4101 and their bias is waaayyy too transparent
@@dazgam4101 look I'm a ronny dahl fan but the offroad action that 4wd action brings is second to none and that's fax
Still doing the most hardcore tracks compared to other channels.
You can't have content as regular or good as theirs without some sort of sponsorship...
Actually, the 'work mate' tops up the Hilux sales a bunch so the highest selling 4X4 is actually the Ranger. If you take that a step further to just private sales, the Ranger is far ahead.
Can't handle competition it seems. Poor form.
seems like that doesn't it :(
Mr G and S are not getting any younger and the show's getting a bit tired and peppered with ads. Love the genuine channel youtube should
Not many want the ugly plastic clad, flimsy, belly dragging, weak, poor handling, junk of today if they have a sense of adventure. The stale front wheel drive, plastic clad, garbage is for City dwellers, old ladies, and freaky crying environmental activists.
Thanks for including SUVs in your explanation of 4wding culture. They may not be as capable but will get you out there on an adventure.
Thanks John :)
