The 4WD Podcast

Big news this week. Our beloved co-host, adventurer and all-round good human Ronny Dahl has called time as co-host of The 4WD Podcast. We have so much love and respect for the great man and to be completely honest, this is the right decision for him. He's an incredibly busy man and it has been our privilege to have been able to sit down with him on a weekly basis to talk life, adventuring and 4WDing.In other news; an interesting update on the AI seatbelt fines in Western Australia, Duggo smells incredible and we have a brand new sponsor on board in Terrain Tamer!

Wharton Beach just got named #3 in the top 100 best beaches in the world according to a survey of 1000 'travel experts'. Duggo does the wrong thing but get's away with it and we chat how common, common sense really is. Plus the new Nissan Terano.

On todays episode we talk road trip music and being influenced by our parents music taste, Ronny's planned trip to Cape York (is he tackling Gunshot?) and how difficult it's getting to repair a vehicle by yourself if you break down in the middle of nowhere.

Salty Davenport talks through his close call while hiking in Iceland around the Eyjafjallajökull volcano.

A very special guest this episode as videographer, photographer and wanderer Salty Davenport joins the boys to talk working in photography in New York with models, a wild crevasse in Iceland & why camping on a salt lake is one of the best experiences you can have. Salty chats about the Kimberley's hold on him, his work alongside Indigenous rangers and the journey that brought him here.

Have we passed the golden age of 4WDing? With new 4WDs becoming increasingly expensive, is a quality rig now out of reach for the average Australian? Ronny and Duggo also dig into the news that one of Australia's only two fuel refineries was partly destroyed by fire last night.

Different look on the show this week as we take the Grounded Construction 2026 Toyota Hilux for a spin with Bo Allan and chat AI 4WD's, updates on his chopped 80 series and more!

This week on The 4WD Podcast, the federal government just halved the fuel excise and we break down what that actually means at the bowser. Plus your winter suspension checklist courtesy of Tough Dog, and Duggo floats the idea of buying a Podcast Patrol.

This week we go deeper on Australia's fuel crisis; what's actually causing it, why we only have 34 days of diesel in reserve (and why that number is worse than it sounds), and what it all means if you're a 4WDer planning a remote trip right now.We also get into dirty fuel, the government lowering fuel standards, and whether the crisis is finally making the case for hybrid and electric 4WDs.
