One of the common mistakes people make with their 4x4 vehicles is taking the “she'll be right” approach to tyre pressures.
Just like any other industry, the 4X4 industry is prone to trends: things that come into fashion for a period of time, and become very popular.

You know those campchairs you see at the two dollar shops and hardware stores for around seven dollars or so? You look at them, you look at the pricetag, and you think 'I can't go wrong' and you buy it. That's what I did once, anyway. There was a camping trip with some mates looming, so I bought two of them. As it turns out, you can go wrong. One of those chairs latest about forty five minutes, the other just made it past a day of service. That 'bargain' quickly became a dead-set waste of money.
Lightforce has been a big player in the international driving light scene for some time, and they have a new product out: the Venom. Based upon the popular 170 Striker light, the Venom comes in a shape that suits 4X4s of all sizes, and produces some very strong light for its size.
Big desert crossings mean big fuel capacities. Where long range tank setups can accomodate the majority of your fuel needs, sometimes you will need to tack on a few jerry cans to stretch your range a little more.
