He bought another Tojo! Maybe they helped out?

Heard on weekend roosystems d4 will not be modified,grocery getter.Also heard someone else associated with 4wd action is getting a d4.Maybe the green oval is starting to get some respect at last.

Wow, what a read. Boy oh boy. Here's some thing's I have read over the last 7+ yrs on the foryum.." 4WDA never have any LR content" "4WDA all they do is bag LR's" "4WDA are just hoons, videos all they show is tearing up stuff etc". Roll on a few years and we have a regular in Jamie in both his 130's. LR's of all sorts featured regularly in the mags and now a D4. Also all I read is LR owners bagging and hanging more crap than I have ever read from the "opposite" side.

I'm sorry, I thought all of us regardless of make/brand etc have a common interest......4WDing in all its formats. Some of the comments on here make us look like a bunch of *****. As for D3/D4 not being tough enough...firstly...good on ya. Secondly I owned at the time a brand new D3 HSE V8 and many would attest that I put that beast through the ringer....from new....it is after all a 4WD regardless of its price tag. It survived and is still kicking on with its 3rd owner with over 200k on it. We should be celebrating not bitching about it.

I am a subscriber and I also watch all the DVD's, there is nothing in there that I or my mates havent done. In fact I am envious of all the places that they get to go to. As for Roothy, wish there were more of him in the 4WD world pushing for the rights of the average 4WD owner. I've met him a few times, down to earth, passionate and rough around the edges.

Some of the comments in here are just as bad if a Toyota etc owner was bagging LR...those in glass houses . Also if you watch enough of the DVD's, they all bag each other out and makes etc, its called banter. I offroad with all makes of vehicles, same happens, but we all know we share the same passion and that's what matters,

Regards

If you are referring to my recent "Bog Hole" post – the fact that an underwater root got stuck in between the bodywork and Bullbar is hardly anything to do with the vehicle. (You could say I got Rooted ). If anything it was just bad luck or at worst driver error for going in there in the first place.

Anyhow I had a great day out using my vehicle as a true 4x4 and got a mud bath / facial for nothing. Electronics checked out OK and most of the damage was caused by the root and the rest was water damage. (carpets, etc). I have 100% faith in my D3

That maybe so Steve but the truth is that mag has been putting crap on our loved brand for years and their readers use that info and continue to bag out the brand no matter what. So what if they now have some landy ownership, the articles still lack depth and technical knowledge written by people with little knowledge of the vehicles or 4wd techniques.
So basis that info those of use that care will continue to bag out that magazine because we can.
