Bush beast
Barely a four-wheel-drive
arrives these days without the claim that it is
umpteen times better in the suburbs than its
predecessor. After all, the city is where most 4WDs
spend most of their life. So the emphasis seems to
be on vehicles being easier to park, better at
tackling roundabouts and an all-round better
companion in the peak hour grind.
Pretty boring really, at least
for those who actually like to get out of town once
in a while and explore some of Australia’s
less trodden tracks.
