New to owning a 4wd (Ipswich area)

Forum > General Discussion

23 Nov 2020

Hey guys, Just recently bought my first 4wd! "I bought a jeep" been hitting every spot I can get the jeep into over the last week or two. Don't really know anyone else with a truck so I'd be keen to meet up with anyone for a bush bash and a yarn! I'm in the Springfield Ipswich area but always happy to travel a bit. Keen as hell to learn from an experienced 4wder, and to teach me how not to roll my baby. Take it easy guys.

Hi Mark, welcome to the world of 4wding. Best advice I can give is join a trip when one comes up, look for a 4wd course to do. There are a number you can Google up.
When off road, if unsure, walk the track first and if not comfortable, don't proceed.
Happy to meet up one weekend to talk 4wding if you like.

Thanks Jamie! Appreciate the advice. I'll definitely keep my eyes open for any trips suited to my stock jeep/experience level. I'd be happy to meet up for a chat 😎
