I don't see this as a witch hunt 3D. Bloodyaussie has some valid points. Like a lot of things in life the show has gone stale in comfort mode. It's a good product that can have a new lease on life if people listen.

Il dado è tratto
Whether we like it or not, NP99, I doubt they would listen as they are dictated by the sponsors, and let's face it it's the only way the show can survive.
I for one am glad that at least there is a 4x4 show on our teli thanks to Simon. However, as per my other previous comment, it just cannot see why they go overseas to film stuff with so much territory here in Aus.

Just wanting to put in my 2c as well. I used to watch the show when it was more backyard job. Even though it is a Toyota he never brings out the FJ anymore probably due to Holden sponsoring with that hideous looking Colorado. What would be ideal would be a mixture of 4wd tv and 4wd action. Quality gear used on older trucks hitting awesome tracks and destinations. No one specific sponsor. Just my thoughts.

I'm totally with you on that Covo. Except with one thing. We would need the old 4x4 action and the old 4wd tv the way it used to be. The last thing we want is a Colorado kitted out with Roosystems gear shoved down our throats every 5 seconds in each video. lol
It's definitely a circle thing. It's the world we live in. Money talks, bull*hit walks.

04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there
How do they beat all the T&A on blokes world? I don't watch it anymore either, it so much like the ad DVDs you get with 4wd action and haven't bought that for nearly 2 years either.
What if this forum started a show? We do plenty of great trips and are not sponsored by any vehicle make as such.
This will be like that awsome np.com magazine. btw ab I'm ready for #2 in the series lol
Btw here's the link if anyone hasn't seen it yet http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...November-Issue
