I really miss the old intro. My family always knew what i was watching sunday mornings. Keep up the good work

[@owenbuttfield9876]

Same lol

[@joeking22]

That tune was terrible. So glad Ronald changed it.

[@wesleymcgonagle3394]

Gidday Ronnie, I live in the United States these days, but I use to live in Birdsville for about a year, I was the Diamantina Shire Electrician. I couldn’t tell you how many Beers i drank in that Pub. I dragged the wife and kiddo’s out there for that job, i loved it, the kids loved it but the wife hated it. Knowing what no now i wish i have never left, but at the time, as they say “Happy Wife Happy Life” Ha! Keep up the great video’s mate.

[@chrisrichardson5841]

Attack of the flies!!

[@Revnge7Fold]

How the hell do they survive and breed in the dessert????

[@middleagedwhitebloke]

@@Revnge7Fold I'm guessing people leave behind plenty for them. Still amazing though. Must be a nightmare.

[@G82_M]

Ronny I love what you’re doing, I’ve been following you for years. You’ve inspired me to overland prep my ranger. It’s almost done. I’m visiting Australia in December and I’m excited to see the wilderness you guys have. Keep up the good work guys. Much love from the U.K.

[@slogue77]

Gunfighter64 Make sure you come visit the Victorian High Country then, it’s the cream on the top of 4WDRIVING.

[@Engineer9736]

You’re going to transport a 4WD from UK to Australia? That’s or a fortune by airplane or 3 months on a ship i guess? Even just renting a 4WD for a month in Australia will set you back over 4000 dollars. Still airplane ticket + fuel + food + hotels to add to the sum.

[@phantomwalker8251]

what sort of ranger,mazda/ford,or u.s truck.you really need a truck with 2 diffs,not ifs front,itll break.has to be about a 4lt diesel.4 cyl diesel b sht.,id possibly sell the ranger,get on aus carsales,ebay,gumtree,ect,buy one here,nissan g60/61,toyota 80 series,or first of the 100 series,wouldnt look at anything else.....i like my f series.if you get to s.a go the flinders,or come to our club meeting.4wd adventurers club,inc.

[@mccoll20416]

harry walker many capable IFS vehicles, SA is always nice but IFS will get by so long as you don't punch it too hard and pick your lines

[@AndyL940]

I have a ifs hilux ..nothing wrong with it.. People forget they are a four cyl vehicle with light running gear drive them appropriately with a bit less right boot and a use ya brains a bit and there fine. Ultra reliable.

[@woodencanoes9362]

“I was in 2nd High.” Understated! What astonishing fun!!

[@ausoff-road7795]

Thanks Ronny! More top quality Aussie off road content.

[@solo_jo]

i love how the 4 wheeling Australia logo is placed over the top of the 4wd action at the birdsville pub

[@Ronny_Dahl]

Just for the record the manager placed it, not us 🤙

[@jaybaldwin5376]

Love this. Watching from the UK. Reminds me of my OZ travels at 18, taking my old Valiant station wagon red trailing with whoever I could get to share expenses with me from the last youth hostel. We would detour of the main roads for fun. Got into loads of sticky spots, saw loads of things few do. This reminds me of it all. Stunning drone work btw. Can't wait for the next episode..!! 👍👍😀

[@jako71000]

Awesome episode Ronny! We did the Simpson and Big Red when I was 8 in the old mans GU Patrol 13 years later and I've got myself a GU wagon and slowly getting it ready to hopefully go out and do the Simpson again!

[@armo7305]

Can’t wait for next weeks Ronnie. Top Saturday nights entertainment for me here in the uk.

[@WildTouring]

Flies looked thick! Great start to the series mate. Looking forward to watching the rest as you post them.

[@joeljacott1700]

Caught myself waving my hands for flies but enjoying these videos 20 year old college stud owning a smal izuzu dmax 09 2wd as my first car i am now only day dreaming and drooling

[@gym_guyslifts5939]

Great videos Ronny!love your style and the content of the videos!Much appreciated from the South Island New Zealand

[@Duhaubetahiks]

These trucks sound awesome! Thumbs up guys!

[@virtualinfinity5068]

I've watch this series 3 times now haha

[@nbrettoner]

Those closing drone shots are epic. Credits to Amalia for all her awesome hard skilled work in previous series, and the guts to take on such a challenge as "you lot" :) Ronny I felt Amalia brought a quiet great balance to the well~bonded group (i.e. a group of people who go to many wells separated by many miles, but grouped in good healthy respect and friendship). I wish "The New CameraPerson" James all the very best. :)

[@WizzardPrang]

Your best yet. 👍🏻

[@ChrisStoyles]

Finally became a patron today Ronny. Your trip videos inspire me to get out there with my son so decided to finally chip in. Keep up the great work.

[@Ronny_Dahl]

Thanks mate really appreciate the support 👍

[@Ronny_Dahl]

Thanks mate really appreciate the support 👍

[@adam3842]

Ah man you guys have so much fun.... Rollin coal in the outback with us mates! No traffic cops! No knob heads cutting ya off! Just the isolation! I bet the beer tastes better on these overland trips!

[@Bemoderso]

Awesome Ronny! Can't wait for the next part!

[@onyertod]

Top stuff as usual. We crossed the Simpson west to east in August this year: Not long I think till trailers are banned because of how much damage they do to the tracks.

[@jcdragon77]

How do they damage the track?

[@blehbleh222]

Torbs is so funny!!!! Love that guy

[@erikleypoldt8275]

Great stuff guys, was just watching the legend that is Malcom Douglas in Birdsville back in 92.

[@PedroQua]

So many flies, it's crazy.

[@geoff6532]

The trucks are looking and sounding awesome like always

[@shaunsharma8104]

Thoroughly enjoyed! Thanks Ronny!

[@denisvincent4410]

Great vid Ronnie

[@codevynz25]

flies!!!!! but amazing trip so far...

[@radod6147]

Ronny, you videos are really good nowadays. I think this is the one of the best, at least for me, don't worry others are good too.

[@the_split_log]

Now that my friends, was a tasty clip. Nom nom nom!! Bring on seconds 😎🤤

[@gusscott1422]

Excellent work as usual, you all have some amazing country over there. Good on you for having a good attitude regarding the flies.

[@gaj5701]

Can't wait to see Nemesis! Bumped into a guy towing with a Discovery 4 who had 6 attempts at it & was hitting the defensive positions dug in by other trailer dragging muppets so hard it ripped his roof rack mounts clean off. I pointed out he'd made 2 big mistakes, 1, towing anything across the Simpson & 2, going off sealed roads in a Discovery 4 😀

[@nnoddy8161]

Does that make Ronny a 'trailer dragging muppet' as well?????

[@gaj5701]

Nah, it's the others who have no clue towing big vans without dropping tyres far enough, getting stuck on a big dune, digging big holes to get maxtrax under then spin the sh*t out of their wheels digging the maxtrax further in then digging them back out & driving off without filling the holes in. Saw that on 2 occasions on my last crossing & stopped myself to fill the trenches back in as there was other, seemingly more responsible trailer towing guys behind me (I was solo) & they wouldn't have made it through. The stinging part is the guys stuck actually had shovels in their hands after digging the Maxtrax out & walked off 😤

[@Hazardbone]

I second that on the disco leaving the pavement 😂

[@calebjohnston3657]

So good! Looking forward to the rest of the series!

[@lukesteadman5343]

These videos are great!! keen to see the rest

[@WesternAustraliaNowAndThen]

Fuel gauge going up and down? I thought that was normal for Toyotas. Used to happen with our HJ60 and also happens with the Coaster. The Coaster has the added benefit of the temp gauge going up and down too.

[@Ronny_Dahl]

Hahahaha

[@maverick2242]

Ole Torbs was loving Big Red eh🤙 Btw awesome drone footage at the end, really shows big red off nicely, think we are looking fwd to this trip as much as you guys doing it. Cheers🤟

[@torbs_littlebear]

That was jun little dune

[@lowranger4x49]

Another great video to start off a series, I'm looking forward to the others; I cannot get over the amount of flies there and will be packing alot of Bushmans spray if I make it there one day!

[@leftcoastoverland8750]

Ronnie + Crew, Keep up the solid work! content is looking beautiful!!

[@Ronny_Dahl]

Cheers mate

[@2B34ever]

Ffs, some of the Aussies in the comment section sound like whinging pom's. Great vid with no bs. Great job at selling the awesomeness of Australia fellas. Keep em coming.

[@aus_overlander]

Step 1 to owning a 79. Load it up with 7 ton of crap.

[@webfreakz]

Great trip, great fun!

[@nnoddy8161]

Love the Ultimate in the Drifta shed!!!

[@Engineer9736]

Love this 🙂 I’ve driven 70.000 kilometers in the Australian Outback, but most of it sealed. A few 100 K offroad with a 2WD on the Tanami track to Wolfe Creek Crater. Would love to try such 4WD truck and experience such desert.

[@desertcamel6685]

What's up Ronny I see your still at it... definitely one of the Overland OGs ..I remember when not too many people knew about overlanding... seems like it blew up..more "trendy" now, but whatever keep at it brother you're true to it... what's the color of your rig by the way? much love from Texas

[@deanio2]

Very excited for this series mate! Well done.

[@johannbrummer6764]

well done, cant wair for the rest of the series!

[@nimratpreet9253]

Brilliant episode Ronny

[@phantomwalker8251]

[@TJRshots]

Bring it on!

[@alfonsocasillas7290]

Great video do you guys bring along your own flies ? 😏

[@Nate_K111]

Thanks for the video

[@wihanpieters9907]

Pity that I cannot download it at work to watch at home, now I'm considering to watch at work.

[@rjl110919581]

THANK YOU FOR VIDEO

[@shahnawazhanjra6531]

Ronny u great brother ur,s v8 is superb ur,s skills nd ur,s pasion to gud keep it up brother ,! i m from Pakistan Mountaini Pakistan

[@navyguy3341]

Amazing trip, lots of free micro protein buzzing about

[@JS-tb9hu]

Love the little drifta trailer compared to the big patriot one

[@The7Ps]

Great vid, always hanging to see the next one. Quality and editing is awesome.

[@tlove9125]

Poisonous snakes, crocs, sharks, jellyfish, spiders, no problem. Hordes of flies? Nope! ;). I’ll be on the beach in Bondi with Elle MacPherson.

[@omfgstfuily]

Venomous snakes, lol. I wouldn't worry about poisonous ones unless you intend on eatin' 'em.

[@yorkchris10]

I had a saddle tank on my motorcycle. I drove across the Nullarbor and thought I was using a lot of fuel, but then remembered I had gone through any corners. Usually the fuel will slosh onto the guage/pickup side. I never had a fuel consumption problem on my bike and relied on mileage and slosh guage.

[@hamish2202]

Can't believe you put such long quality videos out on here most other shows like all 4 adventure are tight as subscribed

[@placesweexplore]

Great video ronny. Always fun watching your videos. We hit the simmo in October. Nice to see how you are doing there. Cheers

[@MOOSEDOWNUNDER]

Good effort team. Sod the flies, just enjoy the outback and crack on.

[@stevenp3176]

If I every get the privilege to visit Australia from the US I think you would make the perfect guide.

[@dexteww]

My favourite ~ ULURU

[@jamesedmondson7265]

What do you record with and upload with. I have a go pro hero 5 and struggle to upload good qaulity videos. Thanks so much for your videos im slowly doing all your recommendations one by one. Did jeep kraft trail today loved it

[@danscorry4432]

Did someone say flies??? Awesome video loved it ronnie!

[@sand_shifter]

Great fly action.

[@waltertrejo2534]

man, the amount of flies @4:10 is ridiculous lol.

[@philipw7557]

Nice one guys 😎

[@TheDaisyhillstorys]

I loled so hard @10:45

[@coledeards5233]

the flies....

[@mozpassion8996]

Man those flies

[@oliverswiss7197]

I just did the Madigan recently and it's great to see familiar places on awesome cinematography. Big red is fun - noticed you didn't mention that you made it up with the trailer on the chicken run only - haha :-)

[@Ronny_Dahl]

Hah I tried and tried some more but yeah nah

[@taichiworld]

Was the run you were trying to get up with the trailer one of the more difficult ones? As in if you took the easiest path would you get up easy? Also roughly what did your trailer weigh?

[@jasonsmith-cu1xg]

Great video, too long between trip episodes ( I'm impatient) there is no other content which is as good as yours well done.

[@daveb1635]

Ronny for the flys and mozzies Fogger from Bunnings great stuff.give it try.

[@nanashimaru]

I will come to Uluru this summer. Thanks to all. (Google translation)

[@lowranger4x49]

yeah, do it mate. It's a fantastic corner of the world down here!

[@darrensice1550]

Next time you are going out there with all the flies in the world while in Brisbane go to the stocking section and get some that stretch but don’t make big holes in them and you cut one of the legs off and then put it over the top of your hat and then pull it down to your neck they work better with a brimmed hat.

[@timkirkpatrick9155]

Just for giggles, add up the vertical parts and the horizontal to find your true distance traveled.

[@Hazardbone]

Glad you got out of qld with out getting defected by the pigs lol

[@torbs_littlebear]

They don't seem to be too bad from my short experience. I was pulled over for a breatho and he was nice a pie

[@Hazardbone]

@@torbs_littlebear yeah well with all the stuff going on atm with a blitz with 4wdrives I'd say you're pretty lucky. My comment was more of a joke but you guys should be pretty sweet. Was it your cruiser that had the bad shocks?

[@mountainconstructions]

Hang on a minute Torbs, you were pulled over for a bretho and you were ok? Was it 9am?

[@torbs_littlebear]

@@mountainconstructions haha. It actually was around 9am but we don't dd anytime even on the track's

[@lowranger4x49]

Too right, the fun police would have had a field day with some of those rigs; even if they were registered / heading back to their home state.

[@TheSkskitey]

Good on ya boys , big red a lot of fun . You probably wasted a lot of fuel returning to get the camera each time but it has to be done to do show the trip . Eager to see the next parts . I won't mention Andrew gave up because of the flies and bagged Big Red :-)

[@garrysutton3229]

The flies look fun

[@mavericmorph5358]

The corked hat is starting to make real sense.

[@lowranger4x49]

Ain't it! I'm thinking of making up an el cheapo one if I ever make it there just to see if they're the real deal.

[@JAAAAAACkkkkK]

Real good stuff Ronny but dam there must have been some serious amounts of flies out there hahaha

[@brendonkellynz]

4 wheeling australia decal straight over 4wd action sticker . hmmmmm

[@owenbuttfield9876]

Hi Ronny awesome esopide can't wait to watch them all. Have a D40 navara kitted out for touring if you need a car for the sa modified. Let's see if you read this

[@MarekKnappe]

One technical question, you said you put down your trailer tires to 10psi. The reason you getting air off of the tires is to have more grip - don't you want to have as little as possible grip on trailer tires? They are not part of your driving line, so they would drag you back instead of helping - can you explain?

[@tutekohe1361]

Australian bush flies have evolved to be able to smell the proteins in eye tears, thats why they go for your eyes mainly. They're not interested in meat, that's blowfly niche!

[@A41ZX]

whats up with flies all around australia .. flies invasion XD

[@JimMcNabb44]

Hi Ronny Big red is lots of fun, I would love to take you around the Victorian High Country one day.

[@aired-downdisconnected4125]

Did anyone else swat a fly away while watching this ? My jeep has always had a weird fuel gauge, I always use the trip meter. One day I'll fix it.

[@coptotermes]

What are your thoughts on the snorkel sock? I’ve heard for and against. The against argument is clogging and restricted air flow, the necessity of cleaning, not needed, problems with the ecu when air flow is restricted.

[@guillermon5152]

goog episode keep it up

[@dalemane2750]

so freakin cool!

[@zoezoe610]

Certainly a lot of time behind the wheel :)

[@theacreelife]

$400+ worth of deisel.......wow! How long did that last you Ronny?

[@slow_diver]

Western QLD, much like eastern WA.. A shit load of flies..😆

[@normblyton6582]

Ripper show Ronnie and oh those rigs sound real sweet, still looking for a Nail VPA here in Qld, cheers:)

[@LoneWolf-zw5yn]

Awsome guys 🍻

[@bradenwoods1111]

Would love to visit AU one day! I'm pretty far away in Canada tho haha
