Cardigan (or whatever his name is) is a self righteous twat who thinks he's an expert on everything 4x4 (writes it on his vid format even) and probably many other things. He gets fatter and fatter in his vids every year so life must be good for him
he talks about Bogans, he's a good example of one. For every good video he does he makes several crap ones, some bad ones really stand out.
Let's analyse the word expert,
ex = has been
Spert = drip under pressure
So expert = has been drip under pressure.
Now for my take on bull bars.
I have always had them on my 4by's of which I've owned 4 since 1982/3, none have been steel. OK so ally isn't as strong as steel but that doesn't concern me, weight is what concerns me, so ally has always been my choice, I've never owned a winch either, but I have pulled myself out of trouble by wrapping a snatch strap then tying off to a tree and winching myself out via the wheel. I do like to travel with friends where we can lend each other a hand in times of trouble, ie: in my jeep I was on a track out the back of Bathurst and we took a short cut across a field of Melaleuca, my mate was in front by around 20meters, all of a sudden I get stuck, get out and find that underneath a few inches of soil was mud with the consistency of porridge, my mate had cracked the top layer and I went through it and was sinking fast, took a bit of effort but he was able to pull me out.
It may sound strange but I've never hit a Roo in a 4by (hit one in my wifes old car, but I spotted him and was going slow when he contacted the mudguard and bounced off, got up straight away and leaped off) I've been 3/4 of the way around AU in the last 2 of my 4by's but still did a lot of tracking in the back Blue Mountains in my earlier two.
Many years ago I took the action of being off the roads and tracks before dusk for the very reason of letting the wildlife have their time, at all other times I'm very watchful and if for some reason I need to be on the road at night my lights illuminate up to hundreds of meters ahead and twenty plus meters either side, right beside us.
The ally bullbars have worked quite well in their main job of protecting the front of the vehicle when driving old overgrown tracks, my saw and machete also help.
I'm not that much into hard core tracks these days (have been in the past) but a rough track doesn't stop me from going to a place I wish to visit.
My 2 cents worth. 💥💥💥💥🤮
