We are thrilled to announce the winners of our inaugural 4X4 Of The Year!

Over the last couple of months, we collected hundreds of entries across our various classes; Tourer, Classic, Tradie, Mall Crawler, Rock Crawler, and Comp Truck!

The judges definitely had their work cut out for them in shortlisting and this was a real credit to the owners. We all love our fourby’s and this was immediately evident in the detail and size of some of these builds. Most importantly, many of the photos used for submission were of your rigs in use – out enjoying our beautiful country (well maybe not the mall crawlers!) So well done to all.

A huge thank you to everyone who entered or voted and congratulations to the winners of Club 4X4’s 4X4 Of The Year 2021!

A special thank you also to our sponsors; Opposite Lock, Toyo Tires, Tough Dog, Rhino Rack and Autobarn who helped bring this competition to life.

You can view our winners and shortlisted entries below! You can also check out more photos and details at www.club4x4.com.au/4x4oty

The Easy Guide to Reversing a Caravan or Trailer

There’s nothing quite like reversing into a caravan park with a full crowd watching. Some pretend not to stare, others make it obvious, but everyone’s waiting to see how it plays out. If you’d rather not be the evening entertainment, here’s how to reverse your setup cleanly, calmly and without the chaos.

Best LandCruiser Engine in 2026: Which One is Right for You?

The LandCruiser name has been earned the hard way, forged across Australia’s harshest tracks and most remote country. While the badge gets the recognition, it’s the engines that built the legacy. The best choice comes down to how you use your 4WD, whether that’s crossing the Simpson, towing a van up the coast, or running a reliable daily that’s ready for the weekend.

This guide runs through the 4x4 upgrades that genuinely changed how we travel, from suspension and GVM to recovery gear, storage, power and the little bits of kit you only fully appreciate when things go sideways.
