Hey Guys,

I currently own a leatherman and when I recieved the offer in the mail it didn't look like the real Mcoy to me.....has anyone recieved one yet and if so are they the real deal or a chinese ripoff?

They must be seriously concerned about their subscription levels .. but then again I'm a cynic. Haven't looked at 4WD Monthly, but definitely won't be renewing my subscription to 4X4 Australia.

Still waiting for mine, havent seen the leatherman on offer in the shops....
maybe its a promotional one????

I get enough advertising SPAM in my letterbox now, dont need to pay for it.

Nothing else in there worth wiping the ginger on

I renewed my sub with the staun offer, which have not arrived yet. I then rec'd the offer for the leatherman in the mag, so thinking they had stuffed up the first renewal I phoned them to check. I was told that my first renewal had been processed (delay with the staun's), but I could still take up the leatherman offer in addition and extend my subscription. The girl told me that there are now heaps of people with 2yrs plus on their sub after taking up both offers........
4x4 Aust on the other hand need to get their s*** together, 1/ their mag hits the newsagents before subscribers get it in the mail and 2/ there is bugger all incentive (discount or other) for subscribing. Surely they realise that the more subscribers they have the easier it is to predict how many mags they need to print each month.
I'ts easy to see why 4wd monthly is increasing in popularity.

Overlander magazine is not worth the paper it is printed on
Overlander editorials are poor advertorials and amateurish journalism

I know we've got off the original topic, but I'll add my 2c worth anyway.

I'm fairly new to 4wd'ing so I WANT to read the mags and find things out. I don't mind a few adds as that is often how you learn what's around. I also want to know about tracks, driving tips etc.

What I DON'T want, is a magazine full of articles explaing the latest 12" lift and $5,000 worth of suspension and $5,000 worth of tyres. SURELY, this can't appeal to the broader market. Same as the trips. If I see another magazine with the ultimate guides to CSR, Birdsville track etc, I think I'll vomit.

I know these are popular tracks and most of the market wants to know about them (including me), but I just as much want to know about places in the Blue Mountains or Vic High Plains, or Sth QLD etc. Places I can access for shortish holidays.

Give me information on stock trucks, the most important BASIC mods, short trips and stuff like that anyday and keep the monster trucks out of mainstream and into specialist magazines. They do it with normal motoring, you have fast 4's and Rotaries, Street Machine etc for the petrol heads and Motor etc for the others.

I've probably lost a few friends with this post, but what about a magazine for mainstream 4wd'ing? We're not all Burke and Wills with 3 months off a year to explore and a bottomless bank account. If there's one, I'd love to know about it.

Cheers,

Smocky.
