THE December issue is bursting at the seams with off-road content.

We tag along on ARB’s Off-Road Icons trip, take a look a stand-out custom-built LC79 and pick our jaws up from the floor after witnessing a supercharged Y62 in action.

We also put the refreshed Colorado in a cage against the market-leading Ranger.

You can grab your copy of 4X4 Australia from newsagents or by subscribing to 4X4 Australia in electronic or print format.
