The Next Journey

My 20th 4x4 build since 1982 is . . . 

43 years since I bought my first 4x4. That makes my new build the 20th 4x4 of my career. What should I get? Help me choose.

48V is what we have called a Revolution. But Revolution doesn't come without a lot of questions. Here, I attempt to answer as many as I can.

A Patreon/ASPW Experience member asked, I am considering buying a used Land Cruiser. Can you help? This is my response.

The subject of battery systems can be a bit dry. So get yourself some Classic Coke (my favourite) water (nature’s favourite) or white rum & coke (Heiner’s favourite) and let’s dive in. Sidestepping the risk of being a bit too dry, I’ll present this using a few analogies.

In South Africa in the 50's, a real life JAWS story unfolded on the coast of Natal. This is that story told by Anthony White in a SABC radio program, produced in 1975.

Join me as I compare two very different worlds of overland travel — Southern Africa and Australia. We’ll explore the landscapes, the challenges, the gear, the wildlife encounters, and the experiences that make each region unique. From the dust‑red tracks and remote bush camps of Africa to the wide‑open outback and hidden trails of Australia, this video offers insights, contrasts, and reflections drawn from decades of journeying both places.   #OverlandTravel #SouthernAfricaAdventure #AustraliaOutback #4x4Expedition #Overlanding #AdventureTravel #TravelComparison #OffRoadAdventure #BushCamper #ExploreMore

1986 and on a road far from home, and the Range Rover breaks down. And cannot be fixed.

Let me try to answer that for you . . . ● Because I don’t know how. ● If you’re talking about this mythical thing called 48V, it’s too complex and expensive. Once valid, these are no longer sound reasons. Enter the EGON DC-Hub 48V. We are in the final stages of testing and will soon release the EGON Dc-Hub 48V. And like all Egon power distributor boards that massively simplify DC installations, the 48V hub also tames the complex issues of installation, 48V alternators, reliability, redundancy and perhaps best of all, the ability for the ordinary bush mechanic to understand it. A world-first.  Yes! That’s what we are claiming. As AI has suggested we put this, “This is not evolution. Its revolution.”

Owning a 4x4 in Africa sounds like a dream—but it comes with real logistical challenges. In this vlog, I open up about the complexities of running and maintaining my LandCruiser Troopy on the African continent. After owning five Troopies across Africa and Australia, I’m asking an honest question: Is it time to let this one go? This isn’t just about one vehicle—it’s about the realities of long-term overlanding in Africa. I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments. 🎙 Andrew St Pierre White 🌐 Learn more at: https://www.4xoverland.com/high-mileage-landcruiser-build-africa/ #4x4offroad #4x4life #overlanding #overlandlife #landcruiser #offroad4x4 #overland #offroading #adventure #toyota
