Hilux 4x4 Forum

Ek en Gerrie het die naweek bietjie Welgelegen4x4 toe gegaan om die roete te recce vir 4x4 events wat ons daar wil aanbied. Ek het met die Hilux gery, en Gerrie met sy Disco. Op my voorruit het ek die GPS Logger Dash-cam move wat ek by Oom Eric gekoop het, gehad, en toe ek by die huis kom toe bou ek die videotjie...

Die ding wil nie he ek moet die video wys nie.. mmmm

Just click on "View original"

Like the music, like the footer info provided (time, speed etc.), nice effects / transitions. Typical farm road with some nice inclines / descents - would be a lot more interesting in the wet (you forgot to load a couple of sandbags in the back Thys).

Lekker family outing trail.

On this day of the investigastion Andy, I had 150 pieces of rooikrans, 3 braai grids, 2 coolerboxes full of meat and ice, and a 40l Engel vol vloeibare verversings on board.. I think that is ample to weigh the Hilux down..


I am the only guy I know who does a 4x4 trail.. backwards.. with 150 pieces of rooikrans in the back..

I once met a couple (2 gentlemen)at the top of Klein Helderberg Trail with 8 boxes of red wine in the back of their very old Range Rover. This is the same couple that made a 3 point turn halfway up the last steep obstacle and drove down without rolling the landy or breaking any bottles.
Wine trumps Rooikrans.

Only if the boxes had 12 bottles each!! Otherwise wood wins..

I should have used different wording........8 cases of wine.............nie 8 boxe dooswyn nie.

Solank dit net nie 8 dose met bokswyn was nie...

lekka vid.

I would like to make a suggestion / request.
Rather than music could you make vids where you hear the engine, and vehicle sound (wheel slipping, bottom out, scrapes etc.)
I think that would be much more informative.
Just my 2c worth.

Looks good, Thysie!

Oom!!

You sure that wasn't 'Broke-back Mouintain' trail?

The camera wasmounted on the inside of the windscreen, so there wasnt too much engine noises... I didnt scrape the Hilux once so you dont miss anything there. Add to that crappy RSG music, and quite a bit of "adult" language would have made the video unsuitable for anybody under 52... Believe me.. the music is the better option..

Was that stuff called 'music'?

Slim Dusty? Or who was that other bloke we used to listen to??

Those were the Yodelling Cowboy songs that you were after - Slim Whitman.

Now Slim Dusty was famous for this classic (also known as the Ozzie national Anthem):

Not a Slim Whitman fan, but I do concur with Slim Dusty!

I knew it was something to do with Slim..
