BUDGET 4WD CHALLENGE! $1000 ute takes on Fraser Island!

[@OutBackSmallEngine]

Loved it, what a fun run. You guys need to do a cheap truck challenge. Three truck no more then $1000 and no more then $1000 in upgrades then tackle a track. Might even make a great two part episode.

Should keep the "Navdog" and do a series about restoring it to reliable 4x4 operation, make it another "4WD Action staple" vehicle.

[@cricry]

They should

Option B: Is deck it out an have it weaponized like sooty✊

[@danielmoore2555]

Itd be a quick series.... the little d21/td27 combo is hard to beat for reliability

[@craigtownsend3149]

Honestly it would cost more then it's worth and it kind of defeats the purpose of being a budget truck.. however it would be cool to see them do it with this or the 1000 buck lux as some people can't afford much more then a budget truck

[@t4thfavor1212]

@@craigtownsend3149 they made more off this video than that truck cost… it’s not about cost of the input, it’s investing in content people want to watch.

[@the_sharkslayer2871]

Love these cheap truck videos. I would love to see a cheap truck challenge involving all of you with a 1-2 thousand dollar 4x4 and do one if the trips to see reliability and what can be done by the average person. Was vastly popular over here in the states when motor trend did it.

[@chiefjohnson2642]

Great idea bro love to see that Graham probably have 2 take the dmax sponsorship truck though....unless he's on a isuzu big horn mybe

[@the_sharkslayer2871]

@Patriot extraordinaire they're still doing their on demand paid service. I refuse to pay for what has essentially become one long ad sponsorship video. The average Joe is not going to just go out and buy a 1k vehicle and put 40k worth of parts just because like they do. 4wd action is much more honest and fun to watch. Although, tad bit of jealousy watching all the cool rigs Aussies can buy.

[@juliandean8787]

Just realized I bought a 4wd Action Magazine about a year ago and this episode was on the DVD. I was as super excited haha but I completely agree with the statement that you blokes should each purchase a sub $1000 4wd and spend no more than $1000 in upgrades and send them all in for a challenge 👌👌

I've been stuck offshore for the last month in Gabon and been waiting for two weeks for you to release another vid, made my day today. Thank you. From one of your Scottish fans.

[@wk-2]

Great video! It really shows that you do not need to spend a bucket of $$$ to get into offroading and have really good fun. Good job Jock, you are the star!

[@thepassionofthegoose5472]

Awesome video! My base is a 2,000USD WD21 Nissan Pathfinder that I've since put 2,000USD in suspension, wheel and mechanical upgrades (were much needed and now perfect). Buy what you can afford and modify as your budget allows. I love the newer rigs dripping with tech, but my modest build makes me smile every time the tarmac turns to dirt. Cheers.

Ms. Fraser Island that she still poses the same challenge's as she has always held me to the upmost respect... yes! firstly its always been about the tides, no matter what. secondly it's always been about the tyre pressures and momentum, but if you can be patient and wait for all the yobo's who haven't figured out yet. you'll bloody make it and have a cracking good time. Thanks guys for enlighting me of my journeys a past. I agree the west is best... Except the midgee's are brutal. but it's totally worth it...

[@michaelthemekhanical]

I should Pull up in my Ute one day when I get all my problems under control. That Navara shares the story of my ute... And that story is engine losing coolant getting a bit hot... But with my Ute, it keep's blowing head gaskets and finally... The time has come to eliminate all leaks in my cooling system and get it resolved! My 4WD is a beast, powerful and impressive for it's age and durability... But sadly previous owners neglected it and it got water damage in the bores somehow. Even the head was replaced at some point. The best piece of advice I found recently was not just advice, but with the proof to backup the claim... Using Fuel Stabilizer and Additives for your engine will prolong it's life till the day the block cracks. This comes in the form of a vehicle which towed trailers day in and out which done around 2,900,000km before the block cracked and barely wore the engine out. The story goes, the owner went to rebuild the engine around 1,600,000 as he believed the engine would need reconditioning and the engine recon shop told him their was nearly no wear in the engine. But he bought a kit, they rebuilt it anyway and it lasted. This story was on DebossGarage and based on what was shown... It's a good consideration to make to look after your rig to get more life out of it. Look after your rigs, regularly maintain them and replace all consumables and it won't let you down! Regardless of Additives, they said the engine will last longer but Oil is oil and is designed for your engine.
