Obviously have never heard of the LNT scheme, or, if they have don't give a stuff about it.
People whinge when they see a van/mh drain a bit of grey water in a parking area, then you get idiots like these trashing the bush because they can afford to.

I'm not sure what LNT means, they should be booked for stuffing up the bush IMHO

Leave no trace Wombat, an initiative started by the CMCA I believe, it encourages people who free camp to be completely self contained, i.e. leave nothing behind but foot prints.
A series of larrikin (in the kindest Aussie sense) videos with the message that their vans can pass rigorous tests and intending purchasers can be confident that the build reserve is there for the more restricted work duty they might have in mind.
Dad's dry humour and the ages-old competition between the boys and dad are delightful.
I would like them to make many more. Maybe less extreme, but as an old fart most things I used to take in my stride without thought are sometimes challenges to be thought through in advance and a difference choice made :(
Its an off roader and you guys are whining they are taking it off road !!! A few wheel marks.. Sheesh complaining like townies..
I was thinking the same, that's what the tracks are there for. I often travel similar tracks to get to my fishing spots. Before I get a mouthful let me say that I keep strictly to the tracks so as not to damage vegetation.
Our son-in-law showed us a similar dvd. All I could think of was 'Do they have anything in that van?' If there was the ordinary day-to-day stuff we carry in our van, it would have all been on the floor in a big mess. I don't think caravans are meant to do what some 4WD enthusiasts would like to do with them.
Still, it is vicarious fun for those like me who always conserved vehicles (and the occupants) and walked bush and water first to check, and likely took the safer detour. I would never do it differently. Help is a very long way away if things go pear-shaped.
My hat is off to the vehicle makers. It is abuse that usually leads to breakages. That and aftermarket add-ons - which in this case could include a heavy off-road van under extreme tests.
Their van buyers would benefit from continuous improvement.
