BACKTRACK LUNCH STOP - ROOTHY

[@Cruiserkoby]

Not a bad looing tuck roothy and good-looking recipe 😋 👌

[@VaughanMunro-js4nr]

We love the new style Roothy videos with John and Karen. Much more relaxed than the old 4wd Action ones.

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Thanks mate, we're pretty relaxed doing them - nice travelling together again too.

[@yawaragirl]

Liked the tip about shopping ,so true support the locals

[@amberguity1]

Loving these vids Roothy, touring, history, cooking, camping.....and Not trying to break your truck!!!

[@craigdouglasmartens7037]

The Mahindra looks amazing! That colour was used by the Natal Parks Board for whom my dad served as a Game Warden in Zululand. He had a 74 Toyota Landcruiser FJ45. I'd love to build and paint my Mahindra Pikup Karoo S6 4x4 double cab like yours. It ticks all the boxes! I have Terrafirma's on mine and they perform excellently on road and on tough 4x4 tracks. Love my Mindy! We live in the KwaZulu Natal bush in a conservancy so have zebra, jackal, caracal, antelope and a herd of Kona cattle along with 13 thoroughbred horses on the farm. Game drives through the Bush everyday into and back out of town. Magic!

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Brilliant life you've got there - I;ve done a few trips to SA and always blown away by how much you guys love your bush too. All the best from Aus!

[@SimonEllis-t5n]

Nice vid roothy totally agree allways take the road less travelled ourselves send our money off the highways thanks mate

[@zoezoe610]

Thanks Roothy, more please 😄

[@lostguru1311]

Great advice mate, we always try and shop local.

[@defjam2026]

Love it Roothy!

[@trailscout22]

John. You living my life in your age. You really set the pace for on how I want to be when I grow up. 💯🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

[@principal7819]

Roothy, that's the best looking Mahindra I've seen. Would love a video overview of what you've done. Want to make mine look like yours!

[@timmycarey1958]

Mahindra dealer should offer the "Roothy pack"

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Yep, will do a full yarn on where we're at - and maybe what else needs doing - but this time I want to have used everything enough to know it's worth. Not working or having to suck up to sponsors is kinda wonderful!

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Go see Ben at 4WD Industries in Rutherford - he'll sort out exactly what you need!

[@placesweexplore]

Great video mate. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪

[@goyourown_way]

Hi Roothy. I see you visited my favourite location ,even the same place where I pitch my tent. I like Bretti Reserve.

[@ianweal3081]

John, I had zero idea of where you were talking about, Bolivia. Well I decided to google it up. Bugga me dead, I (as you said), had passed through it many times without even noticing, disgraceful how unobservant I was on the road earning a dollar. Last time I passed by Bolivia Hill I would have been tugging our van sth heading back from the annual K'gari venture, there was a massive construction site, a new highway section being built, kept busy watching the road, not the scenery. I'm guessing that has long been opened by now, awesome piece of road now I suspect. Thanks for the wake up call, take it all in each time.

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Ha! Yep, the new road up the hill was a massive job - I travel it enough to see it being made - - I agree, so easy to take roads we've travelled for ever for granted. Cheers mate.

[@sandngold8439]

Spot on John we always support local businesses on our travels especially look forward to the local butcher Lovley fresh beef from the surrounding graziers keep up the hard work big fella enjoy 🍻

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Thanks, you've got it!

[@openmind654]

Roothy you old legend 😊❤❤❤ 1:20

[@jase6827]

Always enjoyable Roothy... A Chassi brace for the new tray might be needed though

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Thinking that way too - interested to know why you've said that, experience or just looking at it? Thanks mate -

[@ben7020]

Still got the cooking skills roothy !

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Yeah, well not sure the Handbrake would agree - hahaha!

[@wesedwards9852]

How good is it watching some of your clips

[@bleakhollow4845]

Cheers for another great Cookup, goes well with my beer while I sit back and watch😂

[@kimpenfold2922]

Gordon Ramsay has got nothing on Roothy 👍🏻🇦🇺🐗

[@bushysadventures1845]

Miss seeing you on vids, hope your looking after yourself.

[@hkayztheoldguy]

Great cook up mate…and bloody oath…spend your $$ in the small towns

[@stephendunn935]

Roothy’s commentary sounds like Glen Robins Uncle Arthur 😂

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

I think that's good? Haha - used to love the comedy company, especially Ernie's bits.

[@the_curry_cruiser]

I hope you're paying the handbrake well. She's doing a great job with that camera! 🤳🏾

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Err, pay???? Maybe a free beer at the end of the day...

[@the_curry_cruiser]

@@JOHNROOTHROOTHY That's great economy! I just uploaded my first Mahindra Adventure to KZbin. Definitely have to employ the ball and chain for the next trip. If she's lucky, I won't drink her pay.

[@selimbaccar3622]

hello following you all the way from tunisia north africa, u doing great love it. what kind of rims tire seize off set etc do you have on it?

[@bossmark5830]

I miss milo2

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Me too!

[@nelsonkaiulo402]

John Rooth any chance you run into Jock 4wd 24/7? Needs a few cooking tips.

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Sorry mate, I'm so old I don't know who you're talking about! It's nice to be doing this stuff without sponsors tho....

[@CClipso-u7c]

As you said you like to understand what's going on with 4x4 and it`s not just all about the driving, Well ask A i what Pajero means in Spanish , funny that hey never mind anyhow cheers

[@michaelmanese2228]

It's been a while doing new videos and uploading this old once. How are John❓😊

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Good, and getting better thanks to some new knees!

[@fishlessfishermenfishingan4613]

Hey mate out of curiosity, how does she handle the rough stuff?

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Locking rear diff and a little lift means it'll handle anything this class of vehicles will easily - yet to beat it up, this time around it's about using it when it's needed instead of finding it for the cameras!

[@djredhareaus38]

How many of these have you had

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Too many obviously! Handbrake wants me to eat cardboard for breakfast again....

[@petersuares6705]

What is the fuel figure's Roothy

[@LiamLayt]

Hey Roothy why don’t you go one a 4wd 24/7 trip with Shauno

[@Bradthetruckie]

Watch 4wd action 😉

[@LiamLayt]

Yea I have heaps of times

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Because he's working for sponsors and these days I'm not working for anyone except me - life in the simple lane!

[@LiamLayt]

Ok no problem but thanks Roothy

[@stevennott6139]

Love your work roothy,are you going to do longer touring videos at all?

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Slowly working into it again I think - the plan was to stop work and just have fun but we've found we're having fun anyway so...

[@grahameroberts8109]

You’d need plenty of bum wrap and toothpaste after that curry mix mate! Did the camera guy survive the next day? Cheers. The best thing about your vehicle is the colour. The knees are coming along it seems. Cheers. 👍🏻🙏🦘

[@JOHNROOTHROOTHY]

Yep, she fades into the bush beautifully - free camping!!! Handbrake does the filming with her phone - and she's survived!!!
