4WD TRIPS
Check out our stories featuring 4WD Trips we’ve taken around Australia over the years. We visit places like Fraser Island off the Queensland Coast, Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory, and simple places close to Sydney like the MacDonald Valley just north of the City. Most stories include a link to a video documenting the trip. ENJOY!
New Isuzu D-Max X-Terrain Impresses
By John McCredie After taking the D-Max LSU for a drive last week, this week we are having a drive of the top of the range D-Max X-Terrain. The X-Terrain features coloured guard flares and matching coloured grille. It also has a nicely matched and sleek Aero bar on the back with a roller tooneau cover. The tub also comes lined, but as we’d find out after our off road trip, the roller cover and [...]

4WD Trip to Mt Walker

ARB Penrith run a few of these events each year and it's a great opportunity for their customers to go out [...]
