Again I'm binge watching youtube via the google dongle plugged into the TV and saw this article from these two legends: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oInCXqTzsPE&t=663sThey also linked the article from the ABC https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-01-09/australian-cars-getting-bigger-should-government-intervene/103287604I'm thinking the oversized yanktanks we are seeing would be a massive cause of this. Seen many many pics on social media from angry people of these RAM trucks taking over a couple parking spots in tight car parks. And not towing anything or carrying tradies tools.

Even a few percent of $62 million is a sizeable chunk of change. Anyway, he's upset the fanbois, and that's always entertaining lol.

After reading the comments, went back and had a look at his youtube channel.
Looked for an actual offroad trip that would give him some creds and got sick of scrolling his vids on youtube... a lot of car reviews and a 12 hour bitumen only trip. I'd guess he makes his money from advertising, partnerships, etc. This site explains some of it https://sproutsocial.com/insights/how-to-make-money-on-youtube/
I'd gather he's not a 4wd (or car expert) expert but someone trying to make an income. Until he's done something worthwhile like gunshot creek, the Finke or worse in a modded fourbie, he has no real offroad experience.
Advertising is pretty much how everone on Youtube makes their money, but seeing as how he was an equity shareholder of caradvice.com.au when it was sold to channel 9 for something like $62 million, he's probably not struggling to make ends meet lol.
Yeah and what a great buy that was for Channel 9. They closed it less then 2 years later with the same clowns in charge! Not sure how much equity Maric had in it, as Car advice bought out his lone show with a percentage of it as payment. Definately enough to buy a Tesla!

I stopped watching that clown after he discounted every climate change skeptic as a loony tune. He's not a scientist either, just another bull shizzer, who believes other bull shizzer's.
I've been waiting for the sea level to rise for the last 20 years, but Bondi Beach is still in Bondi, not Penrith.
What a hypocrite! Buys a fuel guzzling petrol 4wd like a Ranger Raptor and claims climate change as a truth! I guess he does or did own a Tesla, because they are the Greenest car on the planet! I suppose his God is Elon Musk, as he has never been know to lie to gain a buck or 2? Mars anyone?

Ha ha!! That reminds me of a Graeme Connors classic, A Beach House in the Blue Mountains: ...Gonna build a lighthouse on the Three Sisters to welcome all the refugees Up there in my beach house in the Blue Mountains, stay as long as you please... Come on down Al (Gore) - haven't heard from him for a while - outshouted by Greta. https://youtu.be/qwGdICfOqF4?feature=sharedFunny as hell.

So you guys would all be happy to go down Billy Goats Bluff relying on the hill descent control to hold the vehicle back?
I wouldn't.
I don't think I'd be happy doing that in any car, but that's just me. I didn't read every word of the HDC blurb in the manual, but there looks to be a couple of ins and outs. I'd be interested to see how the same slope would be handled with a foot covering the brake and TC on.
