I started with a Suzuki King quad back in 2004 then moved up to a UTV (factory roll cage) from 2015. Now have moved into a SXS 570 from 2024 but has a small footprint compared to full blown SXS's -...

There was a "high country" spec in the Courier XLT - it was 4x4, extra cab with the little suicide doors at the back, and slightly higher ground clearance. Also had the extra safety features airbags...

The Mazda Bounty and Ford Courier of post 2000 are very hard to beat for the ratio of reliability and capability versus cost. Far from a first choice in terms of "cool" but I've seen them driven...

ATV/SXS means much cheaper to run, no wof or rego and generally better on gas plus a lot more offroad-capable as a general rule. Also not as comfortable than the more comfortable and more modern 4wd...

Yeah, the Excel is rubbish. Just a word of caution. I've seen short barreled 6.5 Grendel in action plenty on reds at ranges past 300m, 350m, further. Enough to make me very cautious. My opinion -...

Steer clear of the Tupperware excel chassis. It's shit. The factory stock is far stiffer and not a whole lot heavier. My mate had one on his Grendel. Wandering zero with the amount of flex in it....
