Mate, as a big 24/7 fan, I have to agree with most others here in saying poor form 24/7. There is more than enough room in this market, especially for a young bloke just starting out. This is the problem with getting big and becoming "trending". The business ends up with more staff and more costs and before you know it, you have a whole production team and part of their job is smashing all competition to their product. i.e. Shauno, Graham, Jocko and the boys. I think you hit the nail on the head when you said, "don't get up Shauno etc...". You are more then likely right about the reason for the strike. Having said that though, with the small amount of footage you appear to have used and the fact that you were using it to COMMENT on the 4WD industry over the years in Australia I would say that you have a very good case of fair use. In its most general sense, a fair use is any copying of copyrighted material done for a limited and “transformative” purpose, such as to comment upon, criticize, or parody a copyrighted work. Such uses can be done without permission from the copyright owner. In other words, fair use is a defence against a claim of copyright infringement. If your use qualifies as a fair use, then it would not be considered an infringement. Either way, good on you for the effort and for taking a leap on something you obviously passionate about. You get a sub from me:)

24/7 has become infotainment filled up by advertising and they are pretty hostile to any brands not in their quiver...

I own an 83 Supra and an 05 MR2-s I used to own a 93 GQ Patrol (TB42E) - and while it consumed the fuel - I still really miss it. When you're bored on your drive home and decide to go home via some random bush track? End up with your rig totally covered in mud? man - loved that.

I've been into 4X4's my whole life and the worst thing that's ever happened to the scene is it getting popular, it's what's brought all the negative attention and led to closing tracks ect. I think the thing that's really wrecked it is these modern 4X4's that drive like cars, it used to be that you only drove a 4X4 if you really wanted one and were prepared to live with the compromise, now you don't have to, a new 4X4 drives as well as a new road car meaning far too meany people have them are far too meany people are out in the bush and along with them come all the inevitable regulations that go with the popularization of it. The popular KZread channels and the associated media also have a lot of the blood on their hands in this regard too and i cant see it going anywhere but further down the negative road from here.

As much as I've only got into 4wd/camping, in the last 3 years, I have to agree with you. I deliberately go to remote places to camp and enjoy the beauty and tranquillity of the Australian bush in a pretty much stock standard 76, and arrive at a camp site to find young (and old) dickheads revving the shit out of their vehicle, along with their stereo system blasting out whatever bogan fm station . Leaving shit all over the place, and yes I do mean SHIT. When they do leave the camp site, they usually have to let everyone nearby know how small their dick is by the over compensating wheels and massive phallic UHF antennas . The same types that rip up and gouge out all the tracks, thus making it inaccessible for others. You get the picture, I'm sure.

Copyright claim is bs, but you will probably end up with more followers as a result of it. I found this channel from 4wd 24/7 and am now subscribed.

Interesting to see the Australian perspective on this. I was a little surprised when he said 4x4 is new and mass produced in the 90s. Since the history is a little different here in the states. Also not used to seeing a 4wd video without any jeeps. I hope to tour the outback one day, it looks amazing.

I like 4x4'ing and have always loved it. The amount of adrenaline after completing an obstacle is far beyond any other activity you could imagine. Your timeline coincides with our "4x4" time as well. Late 80's and Early 90's people in South Africa started exploring Botswana, Namibia and Mozambique and they needed modification. They started building things themselves and other people see the mods and also want similar things. And right there you have a new industry... After this Covid is sorted, myself and my family will be leaving South Africa for a better place and Ozzie is one place we are SERIOUSLY considering. The lifestyle is similar, people have the same idea about outdoors and we would fit right in. I think it would be a great place to live 😁

Hi, guys love your channel as an old bloke it's great to see young lads having a go. If I can make just one suggestion That would be for you to talk about the responsibilities of 4X4ing. Seeing as you connect with the younger generation (and the OLD like me). it would be an excellent opportunity to talk about not destroying tracks, Picking up your rubbish, not smashing bottles on campfires and so on. I feel that your influence will help keep tracks open. Teaching 4x4 ethical responsibility is so important for the younger generation. Keep up the good work

Saw the vid first time round, and thought it was nice of you to give them credit for inspiring others and increasing the popularity of 4WDing. Which is what they say they are trying to do. I thought you were giving Supacentre a bit too much credit. But with the number of Kings awnings I see rollin around...(sigh)...maybe you're right. As a car enthusiast who grew up in the 70s/80s, and lived through all of those car phases that you covered in the video, I think you guys nailed it. Really well put together and well presented. I had a Commodore, then sold it and bought a 4WD in 1996. Actually, that whole video may have been made about me. I was also one of those young blokes who couldn't afford a GQ Patrol back in the 90s. But I've got one now. And it makes me smile every time I get in it. Thanks for the video. Really enjoyed it. Thanks for putting it back up and for being straight about what the problem was.

You're absolutely right! It's pretty interesting that having a fast car was the aim for those getting their first car 15 years ago, but now the 4WD/large ute is so much more popular for those age groups. I think the Hilux or similar are popular for people a little older (30s) because they make a great work vehicle as well as an adventure vehicle for the weekends. Maybe it's because we're feeling more cramped in the cities, with increasing populations and smaller houses, we feel the need to "get away" more often. There's got to be a bit of a measurable shift. A very interesting topic!

Just wanted to make a second comment addressing copyright on KZread. Basically, its complicated I know people only think I have been around for a little bit but trust me i have been heavily interested with what KZread is about from the early days. KZread copyright is interesting and I am no expert but I have really tried to stay up to date. So the KZread copyright system essentially works as an honesty system, it works well but its never perfect. So essentially if someone has put a video on KZread and someone uses that footage for fair use. 100% legal and fine. So the issue is not copyright but more what classifies as fair use. There was a huge case that went on for years between H3H3 and another content creator, H3H3 ended up winning in court which was a huge step for defining what fair use is. You know those reaction channels? The ones that dont offer a lot of their own original content along with the original video itself, technically that's not fair use due to them not adding enough editing, original content or using them to develop a discussion. In regards to this specific video I believe he is well within fair use as he used the content to further develop the discussion and strengthen his points, he also used very minimal. I also didnt see the original video so im not sure if there was direct credit to their youtube channel but it seems like there would of been. A strike is VERY different from a claim. A claim is someone saying hey you used something of mine, id like to get all the revenue you earned from it and youtube will also not promote this video as much. A strike is saying you 100% ripped their content and you're channel gets a bad name with KZread themselves meaning they will not promote you're videos or your channel as much as they used to. Also 3 strikes in a month and your channel is gone forever. Not really fair if they are not legitimate strikes. 4WD Action is not 4WD 24/7. 4WD Action is owned by a media company, 4WD 24/7 is something else. To me its concerning that they have claimed this, I hope its just a mistake (Which it very well could be) and not a company thinking they can walk over individual creators. This is the KZread game, it's very different from TV

I didn’t see the original video, but if such large chunks of the content are used with the original sync sound and minimal voiceover during those parts like this new version, I can understand why they would arc up. Some of those commercials may be old, but used in their entirety. Music etc. too many things in this video seem to go a bit too far. But yes, agree, probably 4wd247 could have just chucked the boy’s a message and it could have solved a bit of heartache.

What a great video! Well done on finding the old ads - takes me back to my childhood. In all seriousness, a lot of 4wd programmes on commercial tv and channels are basically advertisements for the sponsor anyway - so please don't get too dishearten. I do agree about the 4wd market. I would have loved an 80 series, but a 30 year old high km model cost more than the 2012 MY Platinum Pajero I ended up with. Keep up the good work, reminds me a lot of Michael Masters' Seek Adventure channel (before he stopped content for it). He said the best 4wd was the one you had! But at the end of the day, having one is the important bit!!

I use to be a 4wd sceptic then changed drastically. Having a 4wd just adds a new dimension to holidaying eg beach driving…love it. With a 270 deg awning, a car fridge & the ability to cook food it’s a game changer for me 👍

Been 4WD since 1975. My first Toyota was a tray back,the Landcruiser club did not even have 200 members and it was the second largest club in the southern hemisphere. Went to Frazer Islandin 1975, you had to get permits to go inland off the beach there was know one on the island, We camped on Eli creek for days and did not see a sole. 45 years later and I still love going bush. It is a way of life. BTW excellent Vid. Well Done.

Great content mate. The copyright complaint isn't surprising. Something to keep in mind is Businesses like these have built a business on advertisers not having the expertise, staff and resources to create their own content. This landscape is changing as young people like yourself are learning about content creation, being creative and entertaining and as you enter the 4WD industry, opportunity to create commercial content at very little cost opens up. Think about this, a business spends say $100k on trips and advertising with them, what could a business do with that money and you as an employee? I present and make content for a living as a full time employee, in 2 years we've produced hundreds of video tutorials, marketing content etc etc for a fraction of the price in house, that we would had to have paid if we used a production company. You mate, are part of the future of commercial in house content creation, for every young person like yourself that ends up working for a business in the industry and given a chance to create content, there's one less business reliant on production companies and productions like theirs. From a business sense, you're a lot more than "just some guy that borrowed 10 seconds of video".

Being a country kid where every farmer had a vintage Land Rover, wether a IIA or a III 109” with the stout 2.25l petrol 4WDs we’re always a practical tool on the farm. To this day an adventure is pointing that stubby Birmabright clad nose west and pushing down the yellow lever. And yes, I’m still young but these old non synchro mechanical rigs are my passion. Still shows these new fancy pants rigs how it’s done even after 50 years!

Four wheel drives have always been popular with the working men and women of Australia its a way of life and a hell of a ride!! My first baby was a 94 suzuki vitara she went hard and cost me next to nothing to run

Your music choice was spot on for the eras and the vibes mate!

Excellent video mate, enjoyed it for good content and memories of my 4x4ing back in the eighties. The internet makes it easy to find heaps of info on 4WD's. Sad thing is theres not enough education on when out in the bush to clean up after ourselves. Just came back from a 5500 klm trip in WA and seams everybody loves leaving their rubbish especially toilet paper. I'm sure this is Australia wide and it doesn't look good. Had a great trip, shame about the shit paper.

4wd 24/7 must be feeling threatened by the quality of the work put into this video. I was an avid follower of Shaun Whale and the 4wd Action crew but I must admit I’m quite disappointed that they would be so petty as to stir the pot over this.

Hi from Texas. Well done. Loved this video. I'm a rock crawling Jeeper myself.

Great vid, but I can't help but feel that you missed how 4X4's took hold in Australia historically - even more than a lot of other places around the globe. My old man was driving a HJ45 for work when he was 19 in the 1960's. Since Toyota launched the Landcruiser / Land Rover launched their series 2 there's always been a big 4x4 community. And that was over 50 years ago.

Great video, enjoyed watching it. Sadly with the explosion of popularity in 4wding has come the explosion of idiots out there doing the wrong things, leaving rubbish, lighting fires at the wrong time of year or leaving campsites with fires still burning and generally ripping up tracks and helping to get great places the majority enjoy and look after, closed down.

Guys... 4WD 24/7 sold their soul long ago for the corporate buck. They are now cliché and boring, but they did recently demonstrate that the GQ patrol is worth more consideration. You and your content is currently so genuine it has given me reason to believe that there is actually some in the newer generation that still get it. How you decide to travel on the cash cow train in the future will write your script. For now, I would really enjoy a fire side chat with you and your crew. In fact, I would love to meet your Dad. He did a great job exposing you to opportunities, but at the end of the day, you are what you chose to be, so enjoy the ride. Your perception of the planet is not shared by many around you, but it suits me to a tee. Stay genuine. It is the trait so many others lost along the way, and it is the most saleable trait there is.

Loved the video! but I really wish the important aspect of picking up your own rubbish when out exploring and camping was mentioned in this vid. One of the biggest issues with the rise in 4x4 popularity in recent years is the pollution being left at campsites all around Australia. We know its only a small percentage of 4WD owners and I'm not saying its the fault of "P platers" because dickheads of all ages are the cause of this, but it definitely needs to be addressed more often to promote responsible 4wding and camping habits. Not just because its the right thing to do for the environment, but because no one wants to see 4x4 tracks shut down by the local governments. Another one I'm sure you boys would agree on is hooning. Too many dickheads wanting to impress on social media, are out there trying to do wheel-lifts around corners on roads and ripping donuts on tracks tearing them the fuck up. I mean its all good if you wanna do donuts on sand where the wind and water will erode the sand anyway, but that kind of behaviour is why cops are targeting and issuing hundreds of yellow stickers a year to innocent 4wd owners, as we are all sadly being put into the same demographic. Heres me hoping maybe yous legends will make a separate video to address those issues 👍

My thoughts exactly.

Enjoyed your commentary on the 4WD market and am impressed with your other videos with their young and enthusiastic approach. 👍

Nice video mate. I must admit, I did only come to see what the fuss was about, but I think you made a good point about 4WD Action switching from magazines & DVDs to KZread (now changing their brand to 4WD 24-7). They now get much more coverage (worldwide), without worrying about publication costs and deadlines. Plus all the other 4WD channels, have certainly boosted the popularity. Now for the old man, back-in-my-day talk: Four wheel driving has been pretty popular for a lot longer than you young blokes think. The Leyland Brothers released their first film in 1976. Some of my school mates went on family around-Australia trips, probably because their dad's were inspired by trips the Leyland's were doing. 4x4 Australia Magazine started in 1979 and was the number 1 magazine in that market for a decade or two. I wanted a 4wd when I was about 5 and rode in an old Land Rover and early model Rangie. I would build offroad vehicles with Lego and spend hours in the back yard making tracks to drive them. I actually reckon, the popularity of 4WDing now is a resurgence. There's certainly a lot more of them on the roads but there have been enthusiasts out there for 50 years or more. The problem now is there's a heap of yobs who have little or no idea of how to actually drive a 4wd without chewing up the tracks or ripping up grassland and swamps with burnouts. Then camp and make a heap of noise and leave the place looking like a garbage truck had rolled in and emptied its load in the bush. This is a recent problem, that has only gotten worse over the last 10 years. So, please use your channel to inspire young 4WDers to tread lightly and take out what they brought in (or go one better and take out other peoples rubbish as well). Thanks Steve P.S. I subscribed, so I'll be keeping an eye on you young blokes :)

DPF issues, who cares about the teething issues of carbon burning? Toyota have a fix and/or replacement warranty of 10 years and even so, the dpf has no bearing on anything serious. The Ranger will (and is) have more issues and on record you would say that's a fair educated guess that it wont last as long, but its not a crap 4WD and should get through to at least 250k. The hilux is different ofcourse, everyone knows Toyota don't build for 250k, they build for 400k+. Both are improved on previous models and built tougher than the 4wd's of yesterday, from improved chassis strength to mechanics right through to the diffs. The bodies on these new utes however are as soft as tissue boxes and thats probably an issue to you, but its not to blokes like me. Watch 4WD videos on comparisons between old and new. The new kick ass on the old.

i wouldn't take it personally mate. copyright has a thing called precedence where if they let one thing slide (even if it's as stupid as this) it can be used against them and seriously weakens their claim to the ownership of content if someone else starts uploading after they let you have it

Look up oilfield Dodge . A promotional film of 1920's Dodge. No 4wd , lockers, mud terrain tyres & they drove the things that would have stopped a lot of modern 4wd vehicles.

Great video. Grew up in the early 80's in the back of Hilux's and Mitsubishi's roo shooting out bush with the family and friends. Great times, but I would say that the 4x4's were still 'mass produced' well before the 90's as I remember them. Hell, even our old 2 door Jackaroo was a beast way before the Ford Territory.
