The Australian 4WD market has an extensive variety of vehicles available to choose from. These include the big brands like Toyota, Nissan, Land Rover, Mitsubishi and Mazda. There are different levels when it comes to 4WD courses, drives and tracks and some 4WD's might not be well suited to the level of challenge. Always consider your 4WD requirements carefully before choosing your 4WD. If you plan on taking long trips out in the Australian bush or visiting remote areas, it is important to make sure that you have enough fuel and enough water. Carrying a boot full of jerry-cans or fuel and water containers is inconvenient and can be dangerous and smelly. It is worth the additional expense to invest in a high quality auxiliary, long range fuel tank and auxiliary water tank. These can be designed and engineered specifically for your vehicle so that they are unobtrusive and don't interfere with your 4WD's under chassis clearance.
