4wds going into the surf at Double Island Point - Australia Day weekend 2023

4WDs driving in the surf to get around the "sticks" at Double Island Point

[@shaneyule3484]

And now starts the endless rapid decay of a good 4x4.

[@davorocket2825]

they were only Nissans ... lol just jokes

[@johnwayne8475]

That's why it scares me so much looking for a used 4WD to buy

[@ianwoodward1554]

Another great vid 👍👍

[@ttecsolar2846]

Amazing upload

[@BingoBongo-or5ni]

Burning the logs is what allows the face to wash away faster, it's Acting as a barrier ATM. Just go around the to the fresh water track

[@yusufsayed1583]

Oops 😬 driving in the ocean , there goes another 4x4 Cheers 🍻 legends Greetings from south africa 🇿🇦

[@roxannefurber1450]

Did this in my 1 tonner back in 1985. Lots of 4x4s waiting for tide to go out. Was lucky, but timed it well, came out running on 6 cylinders. Pulled up once through, sprayed some CRC on the motor and took off. All the 4x4ers couldn't believe it.

[@codycarr5429]

Those 3 patrols are cleaned religiously and are regularly checked over and all rust is stopped,removed or treated long before it gets anywhere close to developing past surface rust and it would be a shock for any of them to ever come up on the market as there all building those cars to own until they die

[@bearmims6717]

Exactly bro, These blokes are my best mates and I can confirm they are all looked after.

[@ssusggus]

@@bearmims6717 is there another way around? Wanting to go there next week and heading up from Noosa but didn’t want to get stuck or have to go all the way back to Noosa. Cheers

[@markschmidt9944]

I can’t bring myself to watch all of that.

[@trickster8635]

Pictorial evidence of why you do not buy a 4x4 from Queensland. I can hear the salt working away inside the chassis rails now!

[@Dan-xg3vy]

Lucky its only a patrol, no way I'd take my 80 through there lol

[@craigtomkinson2837]

Nice Ep,

[@det7474]

There really is something special about 4.2lt Patrol drivers. Like literally every single one of them 🤪

[@brentmcd12]

wow! they crazeee 🌊🛻🌅🌤️🏞️📹🤙😎

[@brentmcd12]

Go the Patrols!!! 🛻🛻🛻

[@jeremyharris4415]

Wow some very keen Patrols drivers I certainly would not do that

[@ThaBoss3006]

good to get the evidence for the insurance company

[@Wilbargosh]

Mother Nature doing her thing! I doubt those logs will be removed as its a natural erosion control. But they may close the area if gravity keeps doing its business.

[@jasonbarnes5605]

My patrol is full electro rust proofed. Salt water not a problem. Anyway a nice deep fresh water crossing after does the trick. Looked like a good bit of driving but actually it was the patrol that did most of the work. Unbelievably impressive vehicle.

[@gqwarrior6694]

If you think any electronic rust proofing is going to save a vehicle from rust when it's driven through salt water that deep, you are mistaken

[@BTBSean0]

So the salesman really got in your head eh ....

[@jasonbarnes5605]

@@BTBSean0 deep fresh water crossing or a water blast job after salt water driving is a good idea regardless of any rust proofing

[@246goess]

Those are rust buckets on wheels

[@xisotopex]

I wish we had those in the states. all we had is the xterra and they dont even make those anymore...

[@chrisbachmann6912]

My mate was at double island.. reckon he was woken up by these idiots loud techno and donuts on the beach 4am 🤣🤣 looks like they followed it with a salt water bath

[@xisotopex]

so you were driving down the beach from rainbow beach?

[@Adrian-pi4zu]

Salt water is such a myth when it comes to rusting out your 4x4. If you have enough oil leaks you will have zero rust 😂 They may aswell just driven through the water the whole time.

[@wafive]

Yeah, but what do people who are not fortunate enough to own a Series Land Rover do?

[@kevinward4714]

By the time they get near home those vehicles would have left all metal on the highway leaving nothing but plastic & glass rubber to pick up.

[@tonyloechte9994]

Good too see ya getting rid of the Nissan crap out of this world 😊

[@johncitizen5377]

Hate me for asking this. Is it the only route?

[@chrispyscampingadventures]

No there are other routes, they just take longer.

[@craigjensen4179]

Oh dear, all I can do is shake my head in disbelief

Why would you do that too your vehicle salt water worse then sand and you know how hard to get sand out

Yep wouldn't buy a used 4wd from SEQ. What awaste.

100%, blokes on fraser in early January in standard height BT50's just cruising around the headlands in sea water half way up their doors because they didn't like the traffic jam at Happy Valley

[@selwyn500]

Why would you destroy a very expensive vehicle like that? Crazy

[@davidkelly6122]

They must have lots of money 💰 to treat there 4x4 like that.🤔

all the gear and no idea.

What are you on about .they did it perfectly clown

[@47Rolling]

Or you could just go around on the freshwater track and not be a tool.

[@bearmims6717]

Or you could keep your thoughts to yourself 🥺

[@fish4life421]

Or u could be a man and send it

[@ssusggus]

Is there another track around that can get you back on to roads? I am going there and driving up from Noosa beach but wasn’t sure if I’d be able to get back on the roads from double island without going along this beach? Thanks

[@47Rolling]

@@ssusggus sure is. You take the freshwater turnoff off the beach and keep on following it all the way to the rainbow beach road. You end up about 3-4 kms from rainbow beach town.

This is a regular occurrence at Mudlow/ Rainbow 🌈. All sorts of 4wd do this... Don't heaps of times. Love how the Patrol haters come out of the woodwork, absolutely no Idea.... Any 4wd will suffer from this if you don't do the cleaning and maintenance afterwards. Judging by these machines... I think they get there TLC

[@skaustralia9823]

Why do people keep driving into the surf?!,🤦🏻‍♂️
