  • A nice down to earth review.
    I was lucky enough to be invited down to Melbourne to experience The New GWM Tank 500.
    The New 2024 Australian Released GWM Tank 500
    It looks like there's a million reviews already on RUclips. Maybe mine coming from a regular bloke will help someone with their questions haha
    Any questions, please ask away.
    We have just finished travelling Australia with our GWM Cannon L towing our 3T caravan. Come and check out the channel to see all of that!
    Cheers!

    Congratulations, you really deserve being recognised by GWM for the trip in the Cannon.
    Best endurance test ever.
    What you have done makes me so confident and proud to have a Cannon 👍

    That was great, Thanks for taking us along. I bet you were stuffed by the time you got home, Big Day Out. You talked me into buying my Cannon X, but the dollars for this thing are too much for me. And I feel uncomfortable getting in to my Ute in work clothes, not sure a luxury limo would be suitable, or as one of your other Car Reviewer Mates calls it "Cheap Landcruiser Rival". Thanks again, I am a bit amazed at how quick GWM is pushing into Australia with these new models, I live in a small little town and thought I would be the only one with a Cannon, but No there are three others in town already, and they all love them

    Great review< Tank has recently reached New Zealand. Think the jury is still out on them as usual , KIWIS just love their Ford Ranger. Anyhow, have you guys finished your road trip around Australia and if so what's next. I've had a cannon 4x4 for over a year now and just love it. We are getting a Hilltop Feathertop Caravan in June/July this year, looking at your videos it will tow no problem, thanks for that. Did you add any weight distribution bars to your rig. Any suggestions if anything would be helpful.

    What do you think the tank 500 would be like for towing a van like yours
    And is that the grill that would be coming to Australia or are they pre-production models

    • @wheelsbytheocean
      @wheelsbytheocean  4 месяца назад +2

      This is the Aussie model :) no more changes.
      It would tow it no problems! But I can't say that I've tried or tested it like that.
      If GWM would allow me I definitely would!!
