1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:03,960
Speaker 1: And Amanda jam Nation down.

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:05,440
Speaker 2: To the judgy. No matter of arms for the pub

3
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:08,560
Speaker 2: test today four wheel drives do they pass the pub test?

4
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:12,200
Speaker 2: SUVs are more popular than ever in Australia, but there

5
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:13,040
Speaker 2: is a downside.

6
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:15,160
Speaker 1: Well, the fact they're so popular is amazing, and other

7
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:17,639
Speaker 1: countries around the world that people are getting into smaller,

8
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 1: less guzzling cars.

9
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:21,320
Speaker 2: What I was in Germany on holidays and one thing

10
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 2: I noticed was there was no You'd only see one

11
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 2: or two four will drive four will drives around the place.

12
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 1: Well, Australia is a very different story. More than fifty

13
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 1: percent of new vehicles sold last year were SUV's. The

14
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 1: biggest age group buying them are the people who are

15
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,199
Speaker 1: over thirty five years old, because they of course like

16
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 1: the increase of visibility. Who wouldn't, But they're terribly dangerous

17
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: for the rest of us. When you're the only ones

18
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 1: who can.

19
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 2: Write brother, this get out of town Toyota highlights rugged thing.

20
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,880
Speaker 2: It's called rugged and it's I took it for a triy.

21
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 2: So this thing goes like a like a very quick car.

22
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 1: Wow, you're a woodsman, must.

23
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 2: Be very really really but in case, it's got a

24
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 2: turbo and a gas.

25
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 1: Really, it's massive for city streets. And as a cyclist,

26
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,679
Speaker 1: a motorcyclist you said earlier, how hard I.

27
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 2: Just noticed anecdotically. And I don't want to be a

28
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:12,680
Speaker 2: hypocrite because I've got a toy a land cras our

29
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 2: old school eighty sers land Creis, but I'd probably drive

30
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 2: it once a month, And as people listen to the

31
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 2: show know, I'd ride a motorcycle every day. That's what

32
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 2: I choose to take. But over the years, what I've

33
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 2: noticed with the proliferation of full drives on the road

34
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 2: that motorcyclists advantage is the visibility that you have over

35
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 2: all the roofs of all the other cars, so you

36
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 2: can pick your line in the traffic. When you get

37
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,559
Speaker 2: all these full drives there, you're not getting the lines

38
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 2: that used to get.

39
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 1: And also this fall drives make it so hard to

40
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,320
Speaker 1: park anywhere. It's hard to drive up and down suburban streets.

41
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 1: Four wall drives they passed the PUB test all past

42
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 1: sub test depends where you live in the city.

43
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 2: No way in the country.

44
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: Absolutely, you've got roos and everything else, so you're not

45
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: in the city. What are you get a seat down there?

46
00:01:58,800 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 2: People?

47
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: Is a pub test because when you live out west,

48
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: you need a four wheel drive quite often. Well, if

49
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: that's the only vehicle you own, that's the only vehicle

50
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 1: you own. A lot of us can't afford in two cars.

51
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 1: Wall drive one hundred and ten past the pubcast.

52
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 2: We live in the country figures Europe, we need to

53
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,959
Speaker 2: double tanks your fall drives that just make takes. Yeah,

54
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,519
Speaker 2: not botherm mate. I think that they should be out

55
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 2: in a monstrous I don't like them at all. I

56
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 2: think that some and dads only get them because they

57
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 2: think that they're more safer because they're up higher.

58
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 1: I mention your reasons of mine.

59
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 2: I have a little SUV, so I probably i'm the

60
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 2: guilty party. But I don't have a massive guddler. I'm

61
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 2: small suv because I'm single and I need the spacement

62
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,679
Speaker 2: back when I get FETA chair and all sort of

63
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 2: stuff like that, because I don't have a use because

64
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 2: I'm single.

65
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:44,959
Speaker 1: Because I don't don't have a use. I don't have

66
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 1: a use.

67
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 2: You should get to use.

68
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 1: That would be a great wouldn't it just be a

69
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: great thing?

70
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 2: And then we need to move stuff when we move buildings.

71
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: We could funny for the one time every six months.

72
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: You might need to move furniture around in the city

73
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 1: to have a car just for that. I get why

74
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 1: it's great for you to have it, but it really

75
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: impacts everybody else.

76
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 2: Thank you for all your calls.

77
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: But I say you, I don't mean you. They're rhetorical

78
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: collective view
