I was looking at some utes and they all seem a bit low-slung, but I just want this to get around some rough-ish land and transport stuff, so one of those fancy 4WDs seems a bit OTT. What's good for dirt tracks with some turns and steep bits? I'm not looking to do spectacular exploration, just basic moving people, things and maybe the odd animal. Do I need a jeep?

rhino vehicles are what it sounds like you need.yamaha makes the most useful vehicles .for a ranch or small farm.

Matt Farah answers your questions from the Nissan GT-R Track Day at Button Willow Raceway. This is Garage419.

We recently had an ATV and Side by Side stolen from our cattle ranch. We really used those vehicles to get around the ranch and maintenance the ranch. I want a real time tracking device that is affordable and works in the middle of nowhere. I've heard about cell phone tracking but does the phone need to be on and charged?
What are good brands of GPS devices and where can I buy some?

We use to run GPS tracking via Nextel cell phones in our fleet of trucks. Yes, they did need to be turned on and if they were low on charge they had a tendency to loose track. Another thing to think about with this method is that it was an extra service to have activated to do the tracking by phone. Also, if they did not have a clear view of the sky they would loose track so it wouldn't be a good idea to try and conceal one on a vehicle and get any reliable results. The best thing to do although not the cheapest would be to get a hard mounted GPS unit that is designed for this type of situation.
