4xOverland is the world's first global 4WD adventure off-road motoring channel. Established in 1996, it is hosted by well-known 4x4 writer, explorer and filmmaker, Andrew St Pierre White. AKA: ASPW.

[@carlredmond3642]

This channel is one of the best in the world for it's area of specialty....Click bait away to your hearts content, and give as many new viewers as possible the gift of discovering your videos

[@rtarrant1]

Keep doing what you’re doing mate. 40+ years, and still providing excellent content. Disregard the naysayers… you do you.

[@jackvandermerwe2456]

Andrew, I'm a 50yr old cattle farmer from Namibia and have been going on yearly overland trips around the SADC countries with the family for 20yrs. I remember just before going on our first "rough" trip to the Delta in Botswana in the middle of the rainy season, I was given your book "The comlete guide to four wheel drive" as a present by a good mate. This was 18 yrs ago and as impressed as I was by the book back then, as impressed am I now with your youtube channel after only recently (3 weeks ago) discovering it. I love your content, honesty and no BS approach, but most of all I love the way in which it is presnted. Old school, dry and with respect towards the viewer. You are a scholar and a gentleman. Looking forward to dicovering your previous content and going on many more trips, builds and reviews with you. Keep doing what your doing, in the way your doing it.

[@79thump8]

The only thing you are guilty of is creating one hell of a 4x4 channel. I've enjoyed it for years.

[@jzila9900]

same i enjoy the whining and antics he has .But im here for the vehicles😅 really

[@janstrydom8352]

Dito

[@PhillipDeaneandCo]

Totally agree

[@shanebrbich5698]

Ronny is still sorting his gear out! He’s a cool rooster 🤔🇦🇺

[@jorgeosorio1880]

You are guilty of making a smile at my face and take me to places that I'm 100 percent I'll never be for 100 reasons, and also guilty for sharing this passion with me and now going to the mountains of my country with my family and spending time with them and I love it. Thank you Andrew.

[@Ban00dle]

I hope you and Ronny can make videos together again one day. You two are the reason I got into 4x4 and overlanding and a "Troopy Trip" with the both of you would be brilliant.

[@benmcgeehan]

Yes, that's something I'd watch - youth and maturity, side by side!

[@brkbtjunkie]

@@benmcgeehanthey’ve done a few together

[@christophersaul]

Would be good! Ronny might even take a route that makes Andrew do some tougher than usual four wheel driving :)

[@mullerandre95]

Ronny should come experience Africa with Andrew!!!!

[@cloudysky9991]

Never happen- not pals anymore

[@mikaeljohansson-ze9sg]

Hi Andrew, my favourite series is the one where your daughter was with you in the ISUZU D-max, where you show that you dont need everything but only the basics. Thanks for your great work.

[@jrod7223]

I enjoy your content, Ronny and all the other Aussie creators.

[@Treetopflyer777]

Say what you want, but I love the passion you have for this stuff. And I absolutely cannot WAIT for the Africa videos. My wife is from Jeffreys Bay, South Africa, and I would absolutely kill to go over there and do some Overlanding.

[@brkbtjunkie]

I found your channel over the pandemic and was so inspired to tour the remote places of North America, in July of 23 I purchased my first 4wd - a 2006 100 series land cruiser. I’ve started modifying it which will take a few years due to budget constraints, and then I’m off to explore.

[@dsf427]

Your honest and give NO bullshit. Keep making vids

[@jmpersonal2402]

Andrew, it's your passion that I enjoy... everybody gets something from your tales, and we value it as we all come back... I am of an age where I don't want to climb up insane rocky MOAB slopes, making my truck fall to bits. What I enjoy is your organising of a truck to make it simple for old blokes - people like me. I purchased a Bluette 1.8 as it was quiet; John Cadogan liked them; I tried one, and it ran my pod coffee machine. It's quick for an old bloke and basically less mess... Simplicity, and you tell it straight. I had pondered another Toyota 2XX or whatever model was coming and eventually collected a Grenadier. I am very happy and might consider the 2.8 Bus when yours appears. I want you to know that your depth of effort is worthy and appreciated.

[@emmanuelmunamwimbu7178]

I recently started watching this channel and I'm hooked. I love the builds and the adventures even more. I hope to tour one day and visit South Luangwa. Cheers from Livingstone, Zambia.

[@kcspeed9980]

I just need to say. I’ve enjoyed every moment of video you have produced that I have watched. My favorite of which are you long format trips, when you compile all of your trip videos into one. Perfect for downloading to an offline mixtape on KZbin and keeping as a road trip pastime. I look forward to your upcoming trip and plan on watching the entire build series before doing so. ✌️

[@BriscoelabMN]

Trip content is the best Andrew:) love the travel, even if the views aren’t the top. That’s why I love your channel.

[@Queensizemusic]

I’m stunned the audience for the trips is so small. I adore those productions.

[@user-qt6ju6ed9q]

Looking forward to hearing how the new vehicle is to live with on a day to day basis; and especially see it on a trip. Most of all, look forward to seeing more of your charming and down to earth wife!

[@This_is_My_Story]

I enjoy the content and learn a lot, and with the type you share, it's a balance for us to watch. I like having the option to watch builds and the option to get to know you more and discover new places. If you dont apply the strategy required for KZbin, be it click bait or catchy thumbnails. How would we find such amazing channels? So do what's required to reach out further 👏

[@brendanwalker6103]

Harry and Megan bought a new Toyota troop carrier. Now there’s a thumbnail! Harry is a local panel beater and Megan is a local nurse. But they did by one! Haha Keep doing what you do. Love every thing you are doing

[@overlandme]

It doesn't matter if someone dislikes or disagrees on your work... you still a legend in this field... and your work is offering very valuable info for a lot of people

[@loose_unit]

Keep doing it, you need people to watch the videos, that's the KZbin world we live in these days... Keep the content honest, open and yours and everything is fine :) Draw people in with the Thumbnail!

[@conorkavanagh8437]

I absolutely love your content, I have been watching for years now and have bought my first 4x4 just earlier this year (a Puma defender 90). Please keep doing what you’re doing! You should consider coming to ireland and trying out the Wild Atlantic Way, the content sure would be amazing! Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪

[@taurota1554]

awesome content as always.looking forward to the coming trips and build series

[@jamestwine8452]

Thanks !!!!! I Soooo Enjoy your Program, Being Yourself and Honest !!! Thanks !!!!

[@frank6277]

I love all you videos , all the different items great job better than a tv program, don't worry about reaction , just keep going and i keep sponsoring.❤

[@MrThuggery]

I like you critiques Andrew, right, wrong or indifferent, it's all valuable info and believable story telling. Keep up the great work please.

[@christophersaul]

I enjoy the trips and the builds. You’re the reason I’ve had a Troopy for five years now.

[@charlesfaulkingham5599]

Cant wait for your Africa trip. Fabulous place!

[@mohbra]

Andrew, the only 'crime' you should ever worry about committing is steering your KZbin channel in the direction that feels right to you. Keep delivering content your way; we're here for it, eager to watch and celebrate the incredible, impartial work you do. Wishing you a weekend as fantastic as your videos! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@KarWerk-kg3cy]

The band Faith No More used to release a commercial album that would make them a lot of money, then the would release a album that was a 'commercial flop', but it was filled with the stuff the REALLY enjoyed doing. If click bait is your commercial release, to fund the stuff you, and some people really like, then all the more power to you. Thanks for the videos

[@twist0077]

Most of all I love Your expedition series. I follow them for years now. Thanks!

[@danielschroll6782]

I appreciate all of your content and I try to see them all!

[@SomethingRandomChannel]

that is going to be awesome, love the trips you do with your mrs, super wholesome super fun

[@Ariautoace]

Where has this channel been all my life? I feel the passion! I love the honesty! He says what is ok his mind! I love it!

[@4xoverland]

thanks! Been around since 1996!

[@Burgersmj]

The combination a builds and amazing nature filming makes your channel unique.

[@kaypande7788]

I'm happy to know that's you love our wildlife in zambia. I watch your video's 'for both you guys, you and Ronnie. Learn keep it up.kay from zambia

[@stuartmutch6003]

The trip videos are my favourites. This applies to all the 4WD content creators for me.

[@jimfifield1674]

Doesn't have to be click bait. I watch it all. Thanks for what you do

[@nudenut1916]

Im just watching a video of yours from 2005 about the Alucab conversions. Hearing you list the dated design of the defender in that video as a deal breaker was hilarious. You said it with such conviction and the perfect straight face while ignoring the mildly updated 40 series interior (that in 2024 is still the interior!) of the 70 series in the same video.

[@francoisrossouw1656]

Keep on doing what you do Andrew , you and Ronny are both fantastic ambassadors for your respective brands.

[@adrismit523]

Trips best for sure!Love it . Doing Kaokoland starting in a weeks time cannot wait!!

[@neilk22]

Really enjoying the channel. Car reviews and the builds my favorite. Multi part trips/series content I found frustrating to keep track of. Just my 2c.

[@whiteunicornDR659]

I need this channel to ‘keep it real’. You haven’t sold out like most channels.

[@mrdoodle8748]

As a fellow West Aussie & a person who has lived(briefly) & travelled(extensively) in your home patch that is Southern Africa(wonderful place), I appreciate your content & experience in this space. Don't necessarily agree with what you say sometimes, but I have picked up a lot of valuable advice/opinion over the years. I appreciate your efforts.

[@DuitserSwart]

You allowed to clickbait, because your content is 99.9% of the time honest and interesting.

[@CraigG21]

I may not always agree with your opinions, but I respect them and love watching your videos. All kinds of videos. Keep them coming, clickbait or not. 👍

[@nmp369]

I agree. Click baits are most of the time very annoying! BUT: - the click baits you're refering to are at least not deceiving. Both were fully backed up with some good reasoning from your side and I appreciate that. Thank you for your work! Nic

[@frankjacoby9460]

Andrew you are uniquely qualified to be entitled to be guilty; as others have said, guilty of putting a smile on our faces, taking me along to Africa, which has always called out to me to visit, but I might never see in this lifetime if not for your trips there! Please keep us in mind when you’re developing “click bait”!

[@petertemesvari]

I never consider your thumbnails clickbait, Andrew. Some of them catch more attention (including mine) then others, but I'm never disappointed. Keep it up! 👍

[@kondaniphiri1278]

Nice one Sir.. I am from Malawi and your story on the lake Malawi in 2015 is absolutely amazing and you coming back for another adventure in attempting to trace your lost ring is even epic, may it have a happy ending.. I will be following your escapades… If you can and time allows, Visit the Northern part as well ( Nyika National Park)… Some amazing place that will create great adventures.. In Advance Welcome to Malawi 🇲🇼 #THEWARMHEARTOFAFRICA

[@JackInDaBoxx]

Andrew, whatever thumbnails you put, its great content and ill still watch it. Your discussions and arguments are logical and valid.

[@zeugusto]

Keep The love work, too. Thanks for owning The transparency.

[@onneb90]

Can I just take this opportunity to say that as a fellow West Australian, we are so lucky to have people like yourself and so many others great content creators for us lovers of the great outdoors in our own backyard. Cheers mate 👍

[@malcolmL995]

I think your channel is great. I’ve watched every video you have put up. I watch your channel for the things you do, the places you go, the Troopy builds and the 4WDing advice you give. I have a Troopy in Aus and a 76 in NZ. There is almost nowhere in Aus and NZ that I haven’t been and a lot of places most people will never get too. I watch Ronny Dahl for the places he goes. His channel is the last place I would go for 4WDing advice. Keep up the great work.

[@mullerandre95]

In all honesty I don't mind the "click bait", sometimes I might think of you as, (borrowed from you new country) "a winging pom", but you always try and deliver the best content. As a Boerseun born and bred in RSA I only discovered you 7 years ago before my 1st Botswana trip. I honestly can't complain about any of your content thus far, keep up the great work and I look forward to your latest African content!!!

[@underthelibertytree712]

Nothing better than an Andrew rant.

[@fourocker]

I reckon a lot of us audience are somewhat to even very experienced within this subject matter and we're on the whole not stupid, we know the click bait scenario and get it, I for one don't care, there's still good and valid content within to learn and discover being entertained along the way, I enjoy your bluntness, I recall you giving the Pajero a big serve and I own one, it has been one of the best vehicles I've ever owned and I do agree with you on some points but just because your viewpoint is different to mine it doesn't stop me watching your content to gain perspective from someone who is vastly experienced differently to my experience, keep up the good work and keep telling it how you see it 😊

[@kevinaland2521]

Only click bait if the title doesn’t match the content. It’s like buying a box with a pair of socks on the outside and a beanie on the inside. Yes, the titles are catchy, but the content always matches. Keep up the good work.

[@florrie2237]

Keep up the good work all you do Andrew 💪👍

[@mwauradk]

"Karibu nyumbani''' which is Swahili for 'welcome home' Andrew, when you do the Africa trip

[@chazacharles1076]

ZAMBIA 🇿🇲 !Nice hope to bump into you

[@malcolmlewis3239]

Thankyou for your honesty and for your insight on what is profitable versus what you really enjoy in the KZbin world.

[@chairace6608]

I would have thought 100% would watch for the Range Rover/ Land Rover content.

[@goldfools5445]

Use a pulse dive metal detector. You can get them from Reeds in Midland.

[@USFOLLOWME]

Can't wait for the trip to Malawi. I will be sending a few cups of coffee. Then buy the series.

[@mohammedalmahmood2486]

Respect to you Andrew and Ronny.. Continue keeping us educated.

[@joejackson965]

Saw your Troopy "in the making" at the Ourdoor Expo, Malmesbury. Would love to see the completed version.

[@4xoverland]

That series begins April.

[@aschlack8889]

well done!

[@vaughanscott7308]

I love your work man. Much respect.to you.

[@GR8Tmate]

Thankyou Andrew, don’t really care about the click bait stuff, I look past that sort of thing to what I really like about your channel, wonderful story telling and wonderful cinematography and a dash of craziness plus the beautiful Gwynn for her intelligent and witty input ! Keep up the good work And enjoy your lives whilst you can mate 👍 10/10.

[@mortezaka9912]

It was a good cover (byline) for the content. You may say the topic presented is a click bait, but it was timely and good coverage.

[@brianw1842]

We love you, keep being a human and keep going man

[@keithgaming7027]

i watch your builds, trips, and tire reviews mostly.

[@aaliyahluva]

I like listening to you because you tell the truth not like other KZbinrs & we have a 76 so we like to get info.

[@il_DonGelato]

Never mind, Andrew. Keep on the great work

[@romanmolinanajarro722]

I think, (with really low chances of being wrong) that most of your viewers are true 4x4 overland enthusiasts and not just youtube people waisting minutes… must of us enjoy your content, critics, reviews, anything, and look forward for the next video no matter the thumbnail or “clickbait”…

[@alananderson5202]

Always well done Andrew.

[@cyclemoto8744]

No need to apologies for the click bait Andrew. Your content speaks for itself which is all that matters, unlike many other channels. Cheers

[@davidthomas9267]

Canning overland may have clued in the truth about over priced Ineos Grenadier - it's price of repacement parts when they are available. He lost one of his key fob's and it cost $1,200 to replace it. But real problem is electrical part that controls power steering and some other things and they don't know when they will have part.

[@arnelunde9880]

Hi greatings from Norway the trips is the best !!

[@ResponsibleID1OT]

your point at the end of the video still stands they each have their positives and negatives and alot of channels have had a heavy heavy bias towards the 2.8L, i imagine its to relieve pressure off the v8 purchases, i assume for the mining/ agricutural market to be able to obtain them easier

[@Renegade040]

Love watching all your videos Andrew and would I love to be on that trip to Africa, what a location to visit, may get there one day.

[@bill13690]

Great, content there, buddy. From William

[@rodneyclark209]

Just keep doing what you are doing Andrew.

[@petergulpers4710]

Introspectie is a kwaliteit of the gnostic to look for answers whitin you ❤ dear friend what you think about a diesel engine runs on plant oil and what can I do to improve for the environment ❤ Thanks you for taking a sharing ❤

[@gutmincer2]

More trips with the missus its always a brilliant laugh , and very looking forward to the van build

[@rafaeloreirorodriguez5278]

You are guilty, terribly guilty, convicted of putting a smile on my face with your videos over those years. Would love to have your books unfortunately those are not available on Brazil.

[@albetherechillin]

It's youtube content no guilt just different approach and simular techniques but different outcomes. I love the fishes because they're so delicious.

[@andremare1127]

Stop the BS and start touring Can't wait for your Zambia/Malawi trip ! Been watching your videos and TV productions for years. What I like is your NO BS approach !

[@DocGTO]

Business is business. Keep on doing your thing.

[@runesteinsnnkristoffersen5641]

I follow ALL of what you put out 🙂

[@Nakamichi_Service_UK]

Love South Luangwa, must go back one day. But will go along with you instead for now

[@sunshinecatcher8779]

I watch them all as you are living my dreams

[@rjl110919581]

thank you for the video what was true are best people know long-distance travel

[@placesweexplore]

I am watching all your videos from Germany and in this time from Australia as we travel WA at the moment. Ronnie’s videos are getting more like a show now. But I am staying a fan of you both though 🎉

[@maximkaye6891]

I think Ronnie seems like a good bloke who does the best he can to share his knowledge and opinions, as do you Andrew. Don’t let comments get to you

[@Dennis_is_Outside]

It’s not click bait if the content is spot on and informative. 😉

[@4X4SEAN]

Looking forward to the 500k 1 HZ. I have my doubts the the current V8 or the 2.8 will live that long. The LC II has had 2.4. 2.8 & 3.0 engines (Also from the Hilux) with early Prado Badge. But no such heart transplant experiments were dared with the Troopie or the Pickup up till now. Even some of the 40 series engines such as B & H series which made it into the 70 series engine bays are still ticking. I love watching your videos, and your builds, but yet to be convinced to trade up my LC75P. Cheers

[@mini_steve]

Honestly can not wait for the expeditions that you bring us. I'm so impatient that I keep going back to watch all the old stuff to refamiliarize with a story, the areas, the background and the gear used. Love it. Thank you.
