Hi Guys,
I am going to put in my 2cents worth. We are new to 4WD, we love the bush, and certainly respect this country, as does everyone else that I’ve become familiar with, but, there are always going to be people who want to sensationalize things.
We also drive a vintage car, whenever we are out on a run, you can bet your last $ that some idiot will cut us off, causing us to hit the anchors and I can tell you in a 70+ year
old car, it’s one hairy ride when that happens. If there was an accident, you know what they’d say, cars like that shouldn’t be on the road, blah, blah, blah, BUT, you go to a display day, as we do regularly, and what do the punters want to do, they want to get in,
check out the motor, take pictures of, and generally enjoy seeing these old girls.
My point is, there are always going to be people who disagree with mine/yours/our opinion, they may be misguided, they may be misinformed, they may be ignorant, but hollering about it aint gonna change them.
I agree some high profile people would be great and give credos to us all, and perhaps disparaging articles may help bring them out of the woodwork, and perhaps forums like this go a long way in encouraging that.
