Why would you need a chassis extension? Longer canopy? The QM has the turning circle of the QE2, dear god that would be fun in suburbia

I drove my QM as a daily in city when I am not in woods. The turning circle is actually not bad once you get used to it. I have to be selective on garages. When it comes to turning, I just can't do a U turn in middle of city streets. You just don't do that anyways.

A lot of people do around 300 mm chassis extensions on dual cabs utes with only a minimally longer tray because the cars tow better and carry a load better, but the down side is less manuverbility.

But 70 series never loose their value, (as if).

Going by this years insurance premium I just paid for mine the valuation for a current shape V8 79 with a basic set up went up a bit over $1k from the new purchase price. A few other people I know with the V8s have said the same. I can not explain it as every other 4x4 I have had dropped 5 to 10k even the old 79, at each years premium renewal for the first few years. One day the arse will drop out of the market and a 70 will depreciate at the same rate as any other 4x4.

Go to the 4WD 24/7 channel and search OFFGRID, these are genuine touring videos by Graham. Nothing like the other stuff on the channel. He visits some seriously good places.

Those are probably the only ones I watch. Great videos
