New Zealand's Fergus Gunn considers himself a very lucky man. He is still working in a job he loves, he has a great bunch of friends and a loving, close-knit family…and he's alive! Because on the day he rolled a 4WD while checking fences on the remote NT property of Brunette Downs, back in October 2015, it was only thanks to a series of ‘lucky' incidences that ‘Ferg' made it through the day. After being discovered by a fellow station worker, who then raised the alarm, Ferg's initial, lifesaving first aid was administered by a local vet. The RFDS would again save his life, by giving Fergus a blood transfusion in the field, before he could be airlifted to hospital. The story of this Jackaroo's remote station accident would make national headlines.***Thanks so much for listening to this episode of the Flying Doctor Podcast.

This week we talk about the problems associated with having too many tourists in certain areas.

China's Sodium-Ion Scooter Revolution Summary: China is rapidly adopting sodium-ion batteries in its electric scooter market, led by companies like Yadea. These cheaper and safer alternatives to lithium are ideal for short-range urban transport and could eventually disrupt global battery supply chains. ________________________________________ Toyota Bets Big on Logistics Tech Summary: Toyota is privatising Toyota Industries Corporation to focus on autonomous forklifts, logistics software, and low-emission powertrains. The move reflects a broader trend: rebranding transport as "mobility" and modernising freight handling from the warehouse floor up. ________________________________________ Can Telematics Tame Young Drivers? Summary: A small-scale Aussie study shows real-time driver feedback via telematics might help young drivers—but only briefly. Long-term behavioural change remains elusive, and the research highlights the need for better message delivery methods behind the wheel. ________________________________________ Great Wall Climbs 'Beer O'Clock Hill' Summary: Great Wall Motors proved its off-road mettle by conquering one of Australia's toughest 4WD tracks. Notably, a plug-in hybrid Ute made the climb—demonstrating how EVs and hybrid tech are redefining off-road performance expectations. ________________________________________ Dodge's Electric Muscle Car Stalls Summary: Dodge has paused production of its EV muscle car after poor U.S. sales. Traditional petrolhead buyers weren't sold on battery-powered bravado, highlighting the emotional and cultural resistance still facing EVs—especially in the performance segment. ________________________________________ Driving While Female: Beyond Tokenism Summary: An international survey aims to understand women's experience behind the wheel. While the intent is strong, David and Paul warn against shallow analysis. Real progress requires data that captures access issues, social pressures, and behavioural patterns—not just averages. ________________________________________ Road Toll Stats: Misused, Misunderstood, and Misleading Summary: David unpacks Australia's latest road fatality stats, urging caution when interpreting small sample sizes or percentage shifts. A major jump in remote area deaths is likely due to improved reporting or infrastructure gaps, rather than sudden behavioural changes. ________________________________________ Northern Territory Tops Road Risk Charts Summary: The NT continues to record Australia's highest road fatality rate per capita—over four times higher than most other states. Long distances, rough roads, and speed are likely factors. The data underscores the life-saving power of infrastructure investment. ________________________________________ Respecting the Lane: Lessons from the Autobahn Summary: Paul reflects on how German road courtesy—like letting buses overtake trucks—contrasts with Australia's often combative driving culture. It's a reminder that education, not just engineering, plays a key role in safer roads. ________________________________________ Review: Jaecoo J7 SUV – Chinese Sophistication on a Budget Summary: The Jaecoo J7, a more refined cousin of the Chery Tiggo 7 Pro, offers great value with a premium feel. It's better built, offers AWD, and comes with a future buyback guarantee—appealing features in a rapidly evolving Chinese car landscape. ________________________________________ Program Links and Credits This Overdrive program originally aired on the 7th of June 2025.

This week we road test two vehicles with strong all-terrain credentials: the 2025 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro Hybrid and the 2025 Lexus LX 700h. Co-host Chris Teague put the Toyota through its paces as winter finally turns to spring in Maine. Host Jack Nerad, accompanied by most of his immediate family, tested the luxury Lexus during a extended weekend in Texas. Both vehicles pair a hybrid powertrain with off-road-focused equipment, so there are interesting parallels between the two in addition to their obvious — and not-so-obvious differences. The Tacoma uses the i-FORCE MAX system, combining a turbocharged 2.4-liter engine and electric motor for a total output of 326 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque. The TRD Pro's standard equipment includes part-time four-wheel drive, FOX QS3 adjustable shocks with rear remote reservoirs, and 33-inch Goodyear tires on 18-inch black alloy wheels. Unique to the TRD Pro, IsoDynamic Performance Seats use an air-over-oil shock system designed to reduce body movement on rough terrain. Exterior elements include a TRD grille, cat-back exhaust, and the exclusive Mudbath paint option. Inside, the Teagues got the benefit of the TRD Pro's 14-inch touchscreen with Toyota's latest multimedia system, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and JBL audio. The truck had Toyota Safety Sense 3.0, offering adaptive cruise control, lane tracing assist, road sign recognition, and proactive driving assist with support features like trailer backup guidance and a digital rearview mirror. While the Teagues certainly didn't suffer, the Nerad family basked in the ultra-luxury of the 2025 Lexus LX 700h Overtrail. The full-size premium SUV combines hybrid performance, off-road functionality, and upscale features that set it apart from previous LX editions. Powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.4-liter V6 with a hybrid system that produces 457 horsepower and 583 lb-ft of torque, it uses a 10-speed automatic transmission and offers full-time 4WD. While it offered a boulevard ride as we discovered on our way to and from Globe Life Field, the 700h Overtrail is loaded for bear on the off-road front. It includes Crawl Control, Active Height Control, and Multi-Terrain Select, plus 33-inch all-terrain tires, locking differentials, and a reinforced platform to support and waterproof the hybrid battery. Inside, the cabin offers massaging, ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, a wireless phone charger, and a cool box. As we did some house-hunting, we made extensive use of the 12.3-inch touchscreen with Lexus Interface, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, cloud-based navigation, and head-up display. Of course, we'll offer even more detail in this episode. Our guest this week is Frank Hanley, Senior Director, Automotive Benchmarking at J.D. Power. In his interview with Host Jack Nerad, he'll be discussing a very important issue going forward — AI in cars, so look for that. We're certain you'll appreciate Frank's insight. In the news this week we'll discuss a J.D. Power analysis of what the proposed tariffs would do to vehicle prices. The conclusions might surprise you, and we'll have all the details. The state of New York is battling the federal government over its congestion tolls, and it has implications for anyone who's planning to travel into a big city. Plus, Chrysler is celebrating its one-hundredth birthday, and we'll have a look back at some of that company's innovations through the years. It's an impressive list. So we have a lot to talk about this week. It's a jam-packed show.

In news from Ipswich and District Radio Club, WICEN volunteers will head out in the field for the Brisbane Trails Marathon on April 27. It's never too late to offer your services on the day. A minimum of 14 operators are required most with a 4WD and radio equipment to operate in a remote location. Ipswich WICEN also welcomes support from other amateurs in southeast Queensland. Please get in touch with Paul McDonald at VK4PMCPaul@outlook.com I'm John VK4JPM, Secretary of the Darling Downs Radio Club. The Management Committee is busy at work sorting out a few items that need to be addressed - we'll tell you about that at the next meeting, which will be on Monday 14 April. More about that in a second. The John Moyle Field Day was a heap of fun and thanks to all those who came along to help the club get into the history books. It will be a while before we know how we did, but in raw terms, we ran for six hours with four teams across 10, 15, 20 and 40 metres. Given the commercial nature of the site we were on, we also attracted a bit of attention from the public and had more than a few people come over to find out what we were doing. Explaining Amateur Radio to onlookers is one way to increase our numbers. We also had some underbubblers drop by for a squizz: there are members of our club who are on the road to a Foundation Licence, and what better way to get a feel for what structured operating is about than to watch a team of people calling "CQ Contest"? Thanks to Dougal, VK4EKA for being team captain and arranging the main setup - a centre-fed long-wire flown between trees; to Wayne VK4ARW with his quick-erect rotator dipole; and SAM VK4SAM with a most interesting multiband-vertical and an impressive ground plane. The Field Day also gave us a chance to shake out the club's self-contained trailer, designed quite effectively to operate in a mains-free environment. Fortunately, we had good sun and the batteries stayed nice and charged. Redcliffe & Districts Radio Club VK4RC -. Robert Thomson VK4TFN here. REDFEST 25 "Adventures on HF" at 9:00 am on the 12th of April. I'm looking forward to it. Our new venue is: The Deception Bay North State School, Old Bay Road, Deception Bay. Hello, I'm Geoff Emery, VK4ZPP, and I've been thinking. One area of amateur radio that we don't see mentioned often is one that brought many people into the broader compass of “radio”. A lot of people, these days, associate the introduction of the Citizen's Band Radio Service as being the fillip that gave rise to the many new amateurs who entered via the then Novice licence. The value of Radio Australia to introducing our life and perspectives was well recognised as it had a non-partisan policy of providing news and information and it sought to help people in neighbouring countries. Weather reports, farming tips and English language lessons were all grist for the mill until a few years ago when the plug was pulled. As evidence of its effectiveness, shortly after closing its services several of the frequencies that RA used were adopted by one of the Asian Tigers as their own. In this past week, we have seen the current administration pull the plug on one of the most well-recognised international broadcasters when the USA locked staff out of the Voice of America studios and offices and placed the programming on automatic. My introduction to radio was strengthened by tuning around the dial and listening to these various broadcasters and finding other things like marine traffic, police networks and becoming intrigued by amateur radio, particularly 40m. From that I went on to join the WIA as an Associate Member, Short Wave Listener and eventually I became a full member. Shortwave is still with us and along with scanning of VHF and UHF, it makes a great introduction to the hobby of radio. I'm Geoff Emery VK4ZPP and that's what I think…. how about you?

For decades, Australia's outdoor enthusiasts—4WD'ers, campers, and hunters—have shaped and cared for the rugged landscapes they love. But as government policies tighten and access to national parks and state forests is restricted, is the Aussie outdoor lifestyle under threat?In this deep-dive conversation, Simon Christie (4WDTV) shares his firsthand insights from years in the off-road and outdoor industry. We explore: The rise of 4WD culture in Australia and why it's world-leading. How hunting and conservation intersect, and the growing challenges of managing invasive species like sambar deer. The impact of government policies—from track closures to bushfire mismanagement. Why China's booming 4WD market could reshape the global off-road industry. The political fight to keep Australia's wild places open, and why outdoor communities struggle to push back.This isn't about blind outrage—it's an honest look at the tension between preservation and access, and what's at stake for those who live and breathe the outdoors.Listen and decide for yourself: Are we protecting nature, or just locking people out?

Voor onze volgende podcast trekken we (opnieuw) richting Wallonië. Pas bij een deelname aan de Ypres Historic Regularity komen we te weten dat deze succesvolle Waalse co-piloot ook een behoorlijk woordje Nederlands spreekt. Op jonge leeftijd haalt hij 90% op tweede taal Nederlands en is hij de beste van de klas. Omdat hij het niet meer zoveel spreekt, zitten er af en toe wat Duitse woorden tussen. Niettemin blikken we terug op een mooie Op de rallykoffie bij … Willy Lux, die onze mok liever vult met iets anders dan koffie, misschien nog een ver gevolg van zijn activiteiten in een drankengroothandel. Echter daar is hij niet zo bekend mee geworden. Willy is één van de drie co-piloten van Jean-Marie “Didi” Cols zoals je hier in ons interview kan lezen. Na de succesvolle jaren met Didi neemt zijn carrière een vogelvlucht met diverse klinkende namen waaronder twee van onze andere praatgasten Marc Duez en Bernard Munster. Bij Marc zat hij onder andere in de Belga Porsche 911, de Audi Quattro en de imposante MG Metro 6R4. Bij Bernard las hij nota's in de Opel Corsa, ook toen die in Ieper 1991 omgevormd werd tot een pick-up. Laat ons echter het jonge talent Pascal Gaban niet vergeten waarmee hij op pad was in een WK-campagne met de Mazda 323 4WD, dezelfde wagen die hij nadien deelde met Gregoire De Mevius voor ze ook nog op pad gingen met de Alcatel BMW M3 e30, de Nissan Sunny GTI-r of ook de Opel Astra. Talenkennis van Engels en Duits zorgden ervoor dat deze prof ook enkele buitenlandse rijders op zijn palmares heeft staan. Simon Everett en Harold Demuth zijn zeker de bekendste daarvan. Als je in je carrière de Boucles de Spa, Hautes Fagnes, TAC Rally, Circuit des Ardennes, Bianchi, Omloop van Vlaanderen, Haspengouw, Ieper en de Condroz wint, heb je zeker een mooi verhaal voor Op de rallykoffie. Veel luisterplezier met Willy Lux. Social mediaFacebook - Op De RallykoffieInstagram - Op De Rallykoffie

The owner of the country’s oldest Land Rover says the vehicle’s political detour since leaving Dunedin will contribute to life-saving research. The journey, Drive 4 Hearts, doubled as a fundraiser for the University of Auckland's Centre for Heart Research, which Prof Paton directs. On Monday, the vehicle — just the 20th ever made — arrived on Parliament grounds, reflecting a 1948 demonstration where it scaled Parliament’s steps to prove its 4WD capability.

We all have two lives. We only get to experience living in the second after we realize we only have just one.Simon Yeats had his first real scare in life when he was attacked by a kangaroo when he was seven years old. His first brush with the cliff-face edge of death came when he was 12. His father drove his family down the dangerous, 4WD only Skipper's Canyon dirt road in New Zealand in a rented minivan.Including the occasions he was almost involved in two different plane flight crashes, in the same night, there have been at least a half dozen more times when the author has come within a moment's inattention of being killed.However, none of those frightening incidents compare to what he experiences after his son is abducted to South America.

Ford knows how to build trucks, that part isn't in doubt. But do the Europeans know how to buy them? After all this is land of the panel van for commercial use (aka 'white van man'), and we simply don't have truck culture like the U.S. or Ute culture like Australia. However that could change with the launch of Ford's new plugin hybrid truck: the Ford Ranger PHEV. Revealed at the IAA Transportation show in Hanover, Germany, the Ranger PHEV represents Ford's commitment to combining utility with providing vehicles which lower emissions. As Europe's first plug-in hybrid pickup truck, it promises to deliver the capability that Ranger enthusiasts expect, while also offering the benefits of electric propulsion. At least, until the (relatively small) battery runs out. This new model is set to join Ford's existing lineup of diesel-powered Rangers, providing customers with a broader range of options to suit various needs and local emissions regulations. Here are the headlines and highlights: ➤ 2.3-liter EcoBoost turbocharged gasoline engine ➤ 75 kW electric motor integrated into the bellhousing ➤ 11.8 kWh (usable capacity) lithium-ion battery ➤ 10-speed automatic transmission with new Modular Hybrid Transmission ➤ Total system output: 279 PS (275 horsepower) and 690 Nm (509 lb-ft) of torque ➤ Targeted electric-only range of 45 km (28 miles) WLTP ➤ Payload capacity up to 1,000 kg (2,204 lbs) ➤ Towing capacity up to 3,500 kg (7,716 lbs) ➤ e-4WD system for enhanced traction ➤ Dual-range transfer box for off-road capability ➤ Rear differential lock for improved grip ➤ Multiple drive modes: Auto EV, EV Now, EV Later, and EV Charge ➤ Pro Power Onboard system with 2.3 kW standard, optional 6.9 kW upgrade ➤ Two 15 amp outlets in the load box providing up to 3.45 kW each ➤ Latest Ford infotainment system with hybrid-specific displays ➤ Pro Trailer Backup Assist ➤ 360-degree camera ➤ FordPass app integration ➤ Ford Pro Telematics for fleet management ➤ Digital Logbook for mileage tracking ➤ Available in XLT and Wildtrak variants, plus exclusive Stormtrak launch edition

For millions of people across the country, a week on a lake is a dream vacation. This year Host Jack Nerad and his family found that out firsthand as they drove a 2024 Toyota Sequoia TRD Pro to Cedar Creek Lake south of Dallas for some serious driving and welcome R and R. As the Nerads discovered, the Sequoia had the goods to offer dual duty as both a serious off-roader and a practical family hauler. The third-generation Sequoia three-row SUV delivered luxurious comfort, impressive technology and exceptional convenience features. The twin-turbo V6 hybrid powertrain offers plenty of acceleration with 437 horsepower and a whopping 583 pound-feet of torque. Towing a big boat is child's play with an impressive 9,520-pound maximum towing capacity. For the stock-up stop at the big box store, the Sequoia offers a cavernous cargo area and an innovative multi-level cargo system. When it comes to all-terrain capability, the TRD Pro's part-time four-wheel-drive system includes a transfer case, controlled via a button on the center console, to select between 2WD, 4WD high and 4WD low. The multi-link rear and available air suspensions keep the vehicle in firm control. Nerad will recount more of his family's adventures as the road tests unroll. In our second road test this week, Co-Host Chris Teague will discuss his family's recent purchase, the 2024 Honda Prologue. Making the big leap into the electric vehicle lifestyle, the Teague family has already experienced the joys and travails of battery power. Teague will share far more in this episode. Our special guest is George Baker, General Motors' Vehicle Security Lead. He will discuss ways to avoid becoming a car theft victim. Car theft is on the rise across the country, so you'll want to hear what he has to say. In the news, Tesla's Elon Musk has just hinted that the debut of the carmaker's robotaxi will be delayed. We'll tell you why and what all means coming up. General Motors CEO Mary Barra has just revealed that her company's goal of producing one million electric vehicles in North America is, in her words, “uncertain.” We'll have the details and our thoughts. Meanwhile, hundreds of MINIs are scurrying across the western United States this weekend, and we”ll tell you all about that. Also in the news, Consumer Reports has released its list of the Best Electric Vehicles, and we'll tell you about the surprising top-rated car and other surprises on the list with, of course, our comments. So we have a lot of show for you this week. America on the Road is brought to you by Driving Today.com, Mercury Insurance, and EMLandsea.com , the publisher of Nerad's latest book, Dance in the Dark, which is available HERE on Amazon.com

What does it take to build, tune, and drive a monster Mitsubishi Evolution VIII with a 4.1-litre VR38DETT putting down 1065 hp to all four treads — on pump gas, no less? On this episode of Tuned In, we talk to the Armchair Tuner to find out.Use “EVO100” to get $100 off HPA's Tuning Starter Package: https://hpcdmy.co/tuningpackagebConrad Bradley has been building fast cars and bikes for a long time, although he currently works outside of the automotive industry in the nuclear field. Conrad couldn't tell us much about his current work projects for obvious reasons, but when it comes to his many interesting automotive projects, he's an open book.Over the years, Conrad's built many fast cars — from rapid Subarus, to even faster Evos, to an immaculate Beams-powered AE86 — we discuss all those builds in this conversation, but it's his one-of-a-kind Evolution VIII that we're most interested in.We dive deep into this build with Conrad, digging into the big questions, like:Why ditch the 4G63?Why the VR38DETT?How is it still 4WD?What was the hardest part of the build and how was it dealt with? Has it changed how the car drives?Why even build something as unique as this car in the first place?This is a fascinating look into a very serious build that presented a lot of problems, requiring unique solutions.Further into the conversation, we also discuss the challenges of owning and operating a tuning shop, reflashing challenges, Evo strengths and weaknesses, and much more. This is a great listen for anyone interested in thinking outside the box when it comes to building cars and going fast.

Welcome aboard Jess. Jess started her love for Toyota in a 2015 TRD OR PreRunner. She quickly learned d that 2WD wasn't going to cut for her and she upgraded to a 4WD. She built her white 3rd Gen Tacoma with all the goodies. It was an overland style beast that she took everywhere. White with all the red trim and details to match her hair. Recently Jess pulled the trigger and got herself the all new 2024 4th Gen Tacoma and she is fired up. Not only because the truck is now red just like her hair but because the turbo charged 4cyl is ripping it up. She has already begun her bid on "Rose" and things are happening. Can't wait to meet Jess & Rose at Overland Expo West in Flagstaff and looking forward to whats in store for them both...Instagram@redhead_jess

This is the last episode in my series about the months in Iceland and what to expect.Visiting Iceland in December is a magical experience, often described as stepping into a winter wonderland. Here's a comprehensive guide on what you can expect, from weather conditions to the must-do activities, road conditions and more. Weather and Average Temperature During December in Iceland December in Iceland is quite cold, with average temperatures ranging from -1°C to 4°C (30°F to 39°F). It's not uncommon for the temperature to drop below freezing, especially at night and in the more northern parts of the country. The weather can be unpredictable, with possible snowfall, rain, and windstorms, so it's essential to check the forecast regularly. Daylight Hours in December One of the most distinctive features of Icelandic winters is the limited daylight. In December, the sun rises around 11:00 AM and sets by 4:00 PM, giving you about 5 hours of daylight. This unique phenomenon is due to Iceland's high latitude. What to Wear in December in Iceland Layering is key to staying warm and comfortable in Iceland's winter weather. Start with thermal underwear, add fleece or wool layers, and top with a waterproof and windproof jacket.Don't forget a hat, gloves, and a scarf to protect against the chill. Waterproof boots with good traction are essential for navigating icy paths.Also, the ground is normally covered in snow and ice, so I highly recommend having your microspikes with you because those will come in handy. If the forecast is especially chilly, I often bring hand warmers with me because my hands get cold easily. Also, wool socks or some really good thermal socks come in clutch during this month too.The link to my microspikes and where you can rent microspikes in Reykjavík.Know exactly what to pack for Iceland by getting my free Ultimate Packing Checklist. Road Conditions & Driving Winter driving in Iceland can be challenging due to snow, ice, and reduced visibility. Roads can be slippery, and some might be closed due to harsh weather. It's crucial to have a 4WD vehicle, check the road conditions at the Icelandic Road and Coastal Administration (Vegagerðin) website and Safetravel.si regularly, and be prepared for winter driving. Always have an emergency kit in your car. The Best Local Company to Rent a Car in Iceland Go Car Rental Iceland If you plan to explore Iceland on your own when you visit, I highly recommend using Go Car Rental Iceland. They are a local Icelandic car rental company that has great customer service, a large variety of cars and very competitive prices. Use my code Iceland10 to save 10% off the entire cost of your rental car.I personally use them for when I go on adventures, and I'm so glad to hear that many of my listeners and subscribers are also having a great experience with them. I mentioned in a previous episode that one of my listeners switched to Go Car Rental Iceland from one of the internationally known rental car companies here and she saved $400! That was for a rental during the summer when prices can sometimes double due to demand. Go Campers If you plan to use a campervan, use my code Iceland7 to save 7% and get two free duvets with your GO Campers van rental. Also, I have a great episode coming up soon about how to choose the right camper van for your travels in Iceland, so keep an eye out for that. Expert Trip Planning Tips for December One of the best tips I have for December in Iceland is to be prepared for potential delays or cancellations because of storms. To be fair, we normally have a lot more wind and snowstorms during January and February, but they certainly can happen in December too.Having a flexible approach to your plans is key so that you can manage your expectations. As I have mentioned in previous winter episodes,

Hear about travel to Uluru and Central Australia as the Amateur Traveler talks to travel blogger Chris Fry from AquariusTraveller.com about her most recent trip to the red center of Australia. https://amateurtraveler.com/travel-to-uluru-and-central-australia/ Why should someone go to Central Australia? Chris says, "I Like visiting Uluru for the Aboriginal culture, the art, the history, learning about the Dreamtime. I think it's where I first started learning about the Aboriginal history and our First Nations people and it's one of the best places to actually learn about it there. Some of the tour guides are actually Aboriginal, so they will actually tell you their history, how they grew up and everything like that, so yes, I think it's great for Australians, it's great for tourists to actually learn about that first hand from the people who have been living here for 65 million years." Chris recommends this itinerary: Day 1: Arrival in Alice Springs Arrive in Alice Springs and check into your accommodation. Take some time to explore the local area and get acquainted with the surroundings.

Return to Alice Springs in the evening and relax. Day 5: Journey to Kings Canyon Begin the road trip to Kings Canyon, taking the longer route for a scenic drive and passing notable landmarks. Fuel up at the Old Andado Roadhouse and explore the surrounding area. Arrive at Kings Canyon Resort, check-in, and relax for the evening.
