This is great stuff John thanks for putting it up . So good to see reasonably affordable rigs and not be flogged to death with promotion. And no camper trailers..haha 👍👍👍👍
Just blimmin awesome John presenting these clips .., parts of coffs inland I've never known and have been there in the past as well as Port Macquarie close by .Nothing comes close to that here in NZ.Hope they get that rail line up and running a sure draw card.
Nice to see this. My great grandfather worked on the railway line putting it in. I also travelled on the line as a baby, it would be nice if the railway could be restored.
Loved this. Nice to see some fairly stock vehicles having so much fun as well. We still get the Y61 here in the UAE (petrol of course!). Would love to take mine on a route like this.
That red is still my favorite colour for a jungle buster if I ever bought one that would be the colour if there was a choice that with a 5 speed and a 12ht
Great to see some back to the real deal 4wd stuff. As far as John's comments on the floods etc, all is true, the problem is the small minded percentage who do not do the right thing. They spoil it for the rest of us, they should be weeded out and called out for what they are and we know what they are.
Is there ever any concern about all those poisonous critters and crocs when wheeling there? In Canada all we have to worry about are bears and cougars, and they run away.
Funny - we don't worry about our critters because we know their behaviour too, and nearly everything clears out with a bit of smoke off the fire at night. Bears tho??? Arrrgggghhhhhh.....
in cairns qld,theres plants that will kill you,more than snakes,spiders. you watch ''ave'',boltr. used to watch fred williams,dirt every day,till motor trend got it,. along with finnigan,matts recovery,& ultimate adventures.. most 4x4 shows here are for adds/products, & more of a reality show than real 4x4ing..they all promote there company more than any info you need.
that red v8,should be able to run 35",if it has at least 4.11 diffs. toyotas usually have 4.3 ?. when you let tires down,you obviously lose 3" of ground clearance. plus,leafs on top of diff have less curve,so more travel. IE,hilux. longer the leaf the better. but cant beat coils for ride. that prado,is for the city,too short,too low,no room. do not use traction control in sand or mud.
patrols are better,they still have a trans brake,& better wheel base..toyota have lost the plot,yrs ago..last decent toyota was the 80/100 series. then they went yupi..

No skull dragging a flaming camper trailer through the scrub! $30,000 waste of money, might as well attach an anchor to the back of the car.
If you look closely, the tray from the red truck is from a trailer
Back when 4wd action was GOOD!
Keep them coming Roothy we like to see these and can't watch them any other way.
Yep it’s great for me
Too to revisit these brilliant old trips. 👍👍
Now my Friday is made!
Gotta love this old 4wd action 👌
How old is this?
These old ones are so much better than the new 4wd action episodes. Thanks for sharing all of these Roothy! Loving every one you upload.
Grew up in nana glen then Coffs, spent all my teens in that bush on dirt bikes and 4wds. Absolutely epic 👌🏾
Heavy D lucky bugger. Great country 👍👍
Another ripper old episode mate for me it’s always been your narrative that’s the true hook for these films goodonya bro cheers

On ya mate - see you there one day!
Nice to see this. My great grandfather worked on the railway line putting it in. I also travelled on the line as a baby, it would be nice if the railway could be restored.
Unbelievable track......I’m adding it to my bucket list!!!
Better episodes back then, than....(well done Roothy)

buy yourself an 80 series,or gu nissan. better than 1940 tech. 4.2tdi,not,a v8.
@@phantomwalker8251 I own a 05 1hdfte 79 for that reason but if I wanted a toy and that was the choice that would be a fun truck
Love these could you pls upload the other coffs one in big red when shauno was in the good ole 60
Beer and classic episode time!
38:14 This is what peak form looks like.
Good old days
Respect Mother Nature! Go explore! Have a look! Just take your rubbish with you!😁
Love it
Really love the sound of the red truck. Makes me wonder where it is now... and why doesn't Milo 2 have a V8... LOL
@x Oh OK.. I guess a lot happens behind the scenes.
YESSS im set now

What happened @35:23? Was really interested in what you had to say there.
Love the feel and flow of your offroad adventures.
Great video as always.
The dog is having fun
Hi John, good stuff mate. What engine have you got in old red ?
Holy dooly.
Roothy knows best.
Hey can you let my Handbrake know that? Then maybe duck....
This gotta be easy mode. I died waaaaaay to much for you to just slide past them like nothing.
This stuff is beaut !
Cop U Later
Quotes from Roofy's old mate, a man with a sharp mind in a blunt body.
Definitely mate - blunt mind in a beer barrel,
@@JOHNROOTHROOTHY 👍
perfect use for a patrol, make a nice track for a landcruiser
Damn right. Cruiser isn't getting anywhere without a patrol to show the way 😉
@@gqwarrior6694 was asking for that 😂👌
problem with the prado,was the tires,low profile,plus,he got stopped. too much info.
So sad that the red truck is sitting in a yard around Yandina area
