Running out of fuel, food getting low…but no mention on beer supplies, clearly the team was well stocked with the correct commodity!!!

I agree. We have some of the best wheeling in the world where technical difficulty is concerned, but we don’t have the long distance “tracks” like the Aussies. Hope I can get there someday, but that’s a long, expensive jaunt for po folks.

Lads, get down here! Hire a 70 series and go fucking anywhere! Best time of your life. Think desert, lots of water and fuel, plb/epirb, never leave the vehicle, you’ll be a shitload safer than south Chicago or Iraq!!
The effort put into this channel is just remarkable. The angles. the shots. the amount of footage it must have taken and organisation to edit it all together. It's amazing.
This is the best found footage film ever made The forethought by the creators to provide audio commentary before their untimely demise was astonishing

The way that grahams axle and wheels rock side by side coming up that dune @8m42 sec is mesmerising 🎉❤
Glad to see Graham back with the old guys again. This show is always fun and relaxing to watch. 😎👍💯
I'm Nissan but I love 4x4s in general and Both those old girl's are awesome , all you need is an old Landrover and you've got the 3 car's that opened up our amazing Country !
The passion and commitment is just top notch, thank you so much 4WD24/7 you make my dream come true even when I don’t have car I feel am part of the adventure 💙
Very cool journey. And it really shows the difference in overlanding vs offroading.
The Camera Crew should get a shout-out..They are mostly the first up and threw the Challenges!!! Well done Guys!!!!!

We don't know where we'd all be without them! They're absolute legends. 🤙
G60 every day. Even though I am a Cruiser driver, my first 4wd was a G60. Great episode guys
Great to see you guys engage with another Simpson trip. We had a great adventure in August taking four Mokes from Mt Dare, down the Rig, up the K1 and into Poeppels, then North to exit at Jervois via the Hay River Track. All that on 120 litres capacity with fuel to spare at the end. Mokes rule 2WD 52/12 !
Makes me want to drag the old Series IIa LandRover out of the shed and show you how it isn't done. 😂 Greatest show and adventures as always, loving it!
What an excellent series this was. You can see by the faces of everyone how much they were enjoying it. You Aussies really have created a channel second to none! The only thing you need is a Saffer to tell you that the meat always tastes better if it's a good few days past the use by date. 😂

Not long finished a trip across the Simpson in a 30 year old GQ Patrol. Had a ball and your video brought back the memories. Thanks guys 👍
Always have a laugh watching these guys. Feel like i'm part of the group. Good wheelin, good food .good friends.
Graham mate, the G60 patrol all day every day. All I’ve ever known is Nissans and also the odd recovery (for my sisters Toyota when she had one) I also own a nice 1994 GQ which still purrs like a kitten. Love 4WD24/7 videos and the adventures you guys do! Keep on creating great memories for decades to come.
I get so excited every morning when I wake up and see one of your videos published. You're legends mate!

As a real remote living Australian, I will have some word's for these guy's, mostly love their content, but I live there sometimes and it's just BS and destructive to our tracks for views. If I come across them I'll have a beer with them and let them know how the local guy's feel about their activities.

@@seancraven2361 .. interesting way to look at it all. Let’s not forget the other side of what these views and contents push’s too. Big advocates for CLEANING UP after the REAL terrors of the tracks. But I understand how someone would feel this way. But how far down the rabbit hole does one go and start thinking, finger pointing etc; at all the things that “ruin” our beautiful country ? Interesting discussion to have I think.
This episode was a long time coming and well worth the wait! An epic trip and good fun!
I am so glad you guys made it back..I would've never seen this awesome Footage of your challenging Trip. You guys are Legends!!!
It's a bit like watching Titanic. The title builds suspense around whether they are going to survive, but you know how it's going to end.....😂

great video. i'd go a G60 any day. grew up with Dad's G60 and it was a bullet (350chev) :-) and as Graham showed it pulled out its fair share of toyota's and land rovers in its time
Deffo one of the best run and episodes, back to basics, love it. Greetings from 🇵🇹🇬🇧
As always I’m left with a smile on my face and a soul full of wanderlust 😊😊😊
You guys are hilarious. What a trip. Seriously though, what's better than a few buddies goofing around in the middle of nowhere.
Been waiting for this 1 to drop. Well done boys. Epic trip
Thank you for the brilliant adventure. I "drove" with you every km of the way. Great video.
I'm from Kodagu(India)4*4 lover been watching you guys since COVID I love this show the drive, cooking part they are lit🔥🎉🎉
Awesome video as always 4WD 24/7 Crew. The Simpsons Desert is such a epic place. I hope one day I've have the opportunity to come to Australia and drive some of these epic and awesome place like these great group of friends.
that was an epic journey, loved loved loved it. We did SD a few years ago but we were on a bit of a time schedule and on our way to WA next year we are doing it again, this time on the go slow and time will not be our enemy. Great trip guys and go the G60
Cool video, good to see some old trucks showing these newer trucks how it was done. And Graham, go to G60, learnt to drive in one, and they have a soft spot in the transfer case for me.
THANK YOU! finally someone explaining the different applications and costs. Now I feel I have clarity to make the right choice for me.
What an epic trip! we've a couple of nice places out here in Southern Africa resembling your route in parts but nearly not as vast. It truly is about simply getting out there and doing it! 🤙No matter what you drive, as long as you're in good company with good mates. 👌
This trip is the best one ever on 4wd247. Well done everyone, and what an epic journey. Seano needs to put some other wheels on that 40 series so he can go tubeless, 33x10.5r15 maybe. The farm truck would have made light work of those dunes too!
You guys wheeling these old rigs is the best thing ever.

This gives major top gear special vibes and I’m here for it. Subscribed!
I was looking at the flies and it reminded me of when I was halfway between Port Augusta and Whyalla when my alternator belt let go, the flies were incredible changing it out, but I didn't see the dead Roo 50mts over the hill but the old L series Subaru did a good job on a 2500k trip with my mate and fully loaded.
Epic trip guys, thanks for letting me ride along!

This is my favourite channel on KZread, period.
My wife and I really enjoyed that one could not stop laughing at Graham and Shawo and really good seeing those old trucks walking through the sand dunes,
I sat down with my dinner, steak and veg. I got to the end of this ep with my knife and fork in each hand, dinner untouched. Fantastic ep. Thanks for posting.
Always happy to watch each episode!
The camera guys must love this environment. Some of the best shots and footage I’ve seen. Excellent work.
OMG! I was on the edge of my seat/falling off laughing! Legendary! Thank you Guys! You made my week!
Brilliant absolutely brilliant. Love to see more like this.
G60 every day of the week😛😛😛

He will be able to guide and help you on an adventure like this; Like you have never experienced before, he will safe guard you.

It's crazy what a set of aired down duratracs can do in the sand. They are such an impressive tire in sand and snow.
G60 for me such an awesome looking rig. . It's on my bucket list to build one one day with SD33T & MQ running gear 😍
Its about time I've been waiting for this for ages guys, P.S the start of the Stew cook up is so funny my lungs ran out of air
Great show! Thanks 😊
Love watching your adventures..cheers from the Tokelaus
I'm from the UK we don't have any wide expanses like this. Totally blows my mind!
Rocking the safe styles
Guys as long as the vacuum is not broken the leg of lamb will be fine,just leave it open in your chiller to remove the smell of confinement,at it will be first class,enjoy captain Nemo!
Great job guys. I thoroughly enjoyed watching the 2 part journey. 🍻
Big credits to the guys who did this from when there were no tracks. We are kidding ourselves to think this is a tough trip these days with the modern equipment we have.....and knowning that we have the Australian Defence Force to come out and save us if the shit really hit the fan. Great fun video regardless.
Another fantastic trip ya'll!!! Never disappoints.

Great video, I am from eastern Canada and the terrain is so much different, that big dune ate up the Toyota's, made for some good fun with friends. The Jeep and Toyota guys are always teasing each other over here too. I have had Jeeps, Toyota's, Fords, Jeeps, all good stuff and lots of fun when you get to tug your buddy out. Would love to get over there some day and have a go around the trails over there, it would be awesome to take my Jeep Gladiator Rubicon over and try it out on the trails.
Everyone loves an Fj, Bj, Hj land cruiser. Nice to see the G60 Patrol getting some love in the comments. Would love another.
It feels almost like top gear but Aussie. Absolutely love it
Go the G60. Great rig and conquering the Simpson again
We are going to need an epic trip where you all just take old rigs once jocko's hilux is done and get jessie there in a gq!
