As i I said above I'm quite interested in finding out the average ages because I am quite young and I love 4x4 and camping
-
Well I'm bloooomin old and i've loved 4x4s for a long long time, and camping, the camping got put on hold when i got married, but luckily my daughter loves 4x4 camping so we go as much as possible. :cup:

-
36
4WDing - 2 weeks old :D (I am told, in a steel framed bouncer in the back of a FJ40...got to love 70's safety standards)
Camping - 6 months old
I would have to say though I would be no more passionate than the next bloke who has been camping for 12 months. Certainly an activity that anyone can participate in.

came here with the first settlers as a teenager as there was no houses built back then I had to make do with an old torn sail and have done so ever since took up 4wd'ing when my last vehicle was carved up for dog meat
-
41
Went hiking once at school, camping once with my parents(they hated it and wouldn't go again).
Then when I turned 18 my wife and I started going camping for most holidays as it was fun and affordable. Started hiking together and never looked back.
Didn't start 4WDing until we purchased the Prado in 2010. I will never be without a 4WD again, we'll not until I'm too old to drive.

Never too young or old to start, get out there and enjoy it.

Been driving 4wd for 26 years at work but purchased my own in 2010. Love it.

35yo
Grew up on a farm, so our vehicles were always 4WD's. I still have the 60 series Cruiser my parents bought brand new in 1981.
Fishing and camping all my life.
Grew up camping in a tent, got my first swag when I was 20, Stretcher at 30, now I have a wife and 2 young boys, so we are back in a big cabin tent. We pick our new camper trailer up on Thursday and will head to Fraser Island on Friday. :)

36, started camping at about 10 in cub scouts. Got my first fourby about 19 an MQ patrol SWB. Loved camping and the bush ever since

36 years old (which appears to be a very popular age here!)
Started camping as a child with family and have always loved camping but only got my first 4wd about 7yrs ago. Also did plenty of caming as Cub, Scout, Venturer, Rover, & Leader.
I have also introduced my kids to camping at an early age (my oldest was 10mth old and old crawling when he first went camping)
-
I'm 57, been camping since I was 14.
Started driving through the Vic Alps in my beetle almost 20 years ago. ;D
-
Im 37yo
We came out from the U.K in 1979. Within 6 months my parents bought a yatch, and we spent almost every weekend either on the boat, or camping.
Ive been with my wife for 20 years, and although she would come and stay on the boat, she wouldnt camp until 3 years ago.
I have been 4wding with mates on and off for about 15 years, but only got my own 4 years ago.
I would give up my left nut before i give up my love for the outdoors.
-
I am 40, started camping as a child of 4, did lots throught he scouting movement. Bought my first 4wd in 2005.
:cheers: Cracka

It really is inappropriate to ask a ladies age ... but since I'm no Lady (I'm a sheila) ... 43. Been camping & passengering in 4wd's since my dad was young! Apparently I did my first hike about then too.

39 years old (and feeling around 70 at the moment)
Been camping and 4wding for the last 10+ years.
If I wasn't a fat old bastard I would do more hiking, I love walking just get too tired too quickly now :-[

I am 21,
I haven't had any great 4x4 experience yet the majority of my 4x4 has been local salt lakes and a few hills near by. I am planning to get further into it when my pathfinder is once again running and I can afford the lift kit bulbar and winch. I love fishing so I have done about 8 or 9 hours in total of beach driving. As a kid my father and I used to go camping 1 or 2 times a year up until he fell ill most of this was done In a vs ute with bench seats. Now that he has passed away I am planning a 4x4 camping trip to all the places we went including but not limited to Esperance, hope toun, marble bar, Gascoyn junction, canarvon, sharks bay, monkey Mia, a really big rock In north wa. And a few other memorable places. I will probably head south from kalgoorlie through Esperance, hopetoun, onto Albany and around the west coast.

24 x 2 (48). Camping is some of my earliest memories.
Grand folks lived in Culburra SA, so it was only a short drive to the Coorong. Uncle lived in Millicent, so trips to Robe, Beachport and SE South Oz were a common occurrence every year. From a family of 5 kids, but we still managed to afford to go on a holiday every year.
My old man had a Hartley half cabin that we used to use on the Murray and Outer Harbour. Have done camping trips along most of the length of the Murray in SA from the mouth up to Renmark. We used to go on long weekends trips. The old man would punt along the river, pick a spot for the night at an appropriate spot on the bank. He used to organize a bus trip from one of the towns to go back and pick up the car and trailer while us 3 boys waited for him in the boat, and after an anxious wait, we'd put the boat back on the trailer and head home.
Used to catch all sorts of fish in the Murray back then, particularly cat fish. Christ the Murray has changed since I was a kid. Used to be mile after mile of unspoilt river, now there is irrigation everywhere.
-
50 :D
Have been camping since I was 2 in the middle of Africa (Belgium Congo) Dad and I would go hunting in the plain, I was in the back of an old Willys, those are great memories.
Since arriving in Australia 1991 we have been out almost every holiday and always had a 4x4. Fraser Island, Red Centre, Kimberleys etc....
What a great Country we have
Cheers,
Thierry

Grew up in the bush, been camping since I was three, the Green machine taught me to hike and 4WD proper at 17 .. been doing it ever since , although with a lot more comforts and a family in tow nowadays... just broke the the half ton in age and got a 5 yro to pass all the bush craft and driving skills to keep me young .

45yo always had an affinity with the bush..........started camping seriously at about 15yo when I used to go bushwalking with my uncle, in my late teens i decided I wanted to travel, and when I was 20 bought my fist 4by, left Ballarat in 1989 for my first lap......never went back, lived and worked all over the island ever since, always had a 4by, and always camped, my kids have grown up camping/swagging.
Our last big trip in 2009 we were gone for a month, and paid for about 7 nights accom all up, the rest was free camps and swags :) and the 4 kids loved it!

Camping all my life, purchased 2 4WDs His and Hers last year, up graded from camping in tents to 2 camper trailers, 1 offroad and 1 with a rooftop tent. and loving it.
-
34, and been camping since my cub/scout days.
Only new to 4WDing having recently purchased an 2010 demo Exceed Pajero with 20k on the clock.

Never too young or old to start, get out there and enjoy it.
it is a known and should be respectfully practised camping etiquette to look after the senior campers by making sure they do not have to leave their camp chair to fetch a beer when their beer is almost empty :cheers: :laugh:

A poll would've been easier to collate the numbers. Interesting spread though (http://www.emofaces.com/png/15/emoticons/shrek.png)

28 now. Been 4 wheeling and camping ever since I can remember. Bought my first 4wd at 16 and built it up for when I got my p plates (GQ LWB). Joined the army like all young blokes should an slept under the stars in some pretty amazing places ;D
After I got out I wanted a bit more luxury than a swag for the family and got a camper trailer.
I have been through a few 4wds and always seem to then go to something small and quick. My last car was a wrx, but before that was a pajero, late model explorer then an ra rodeo and now I am in a 2008 patrol.
I like to think that 4wds and camping go hand in hand but then it all comes down to the individual.
Cheers

33.
Been camping since I was knee high to a grass hopper.
Brought my first 4X4 when I was 19, a 1981 60 series cruiser GXL with a 350 Chev cost $8,000 sold it about 4 years later for $7,500.
Also that year brought my first real car too 1988 VL Walkinshaw.
Got to love the V8's.
:cheers:

I have been camping and fishing since I was a kid. My first 4wd was at 18 and it was an FJ55 Cruiser petrol wagon that was the old mans. It was rough and had rust in the usual places but it was reliable and fun as a kid.
At 20 I joined the Fisheries department as a fisheries officer and since then I have continued to camp all over NSW as part of my job. I have been stationed on the inland since 1997 doing 13 years in the snowys at Tumut and now I am located at Bathurst. My family, wife, 2 girls 4, 8 and I have continued to camp all over the place and love it. Both of my kids were camping within their first 8 weeks on the planet. We progressed through swags, tents and now have a KK and our trusty 80 series Cruiser.
I enjoy all forms of camping especially keeping it simple and rolling out the swag, luckily this is how we roll when at work so I do plenty of it.
I turn the big 40 this year.

Turned 34 a couple of weeks ago.
Started camping as a pup but only tame stuff. Got my first swag at 16 or 17 and first non-family camping trip with the boys at 16 which is about the time I found out how much I like to drink! Things wend down hill from there, upgraded to swag on the back of my old ute (HQ) with a tarp over. Then went to a trailer with a canopy, then bolted a camper top to it. Now have the Aussie Jays camper.
As for 4wd we don't really do anything serious. More a just in case we get stuck. A lift kit on the DMax may change that a little! I got my Rodeo single cab tray 4WD 8 years and we've had the DMax nearly 3.
-
Not tellin ya, but I was tolled by my parents that I used to be carried in a hand made hammock strung between the back windows of an old wippet :cheers:
-
Hmmm. I'm 36 too..
Been 4wdiing and camping since I got my license.
36 must be a lucky number ?
-
Well I'm 40 as of last week :( I lived in S.E South Australia ( Millicent ) until I was 12 so like Marschy many trips to Robe and the likes were had.
The first time I remember camping would have been when I was around 5 at the Grampians in Victoria. I still love that place and am looking forward to getting back there at some stage. Only a few trips were made in my teens until I got with swmbo 20yrs ago and with her being from Broken Hill, she too had many childhood camping memories. From there we started tent camping pretty much right up until we moved here ( Tas ) for some reason it then slowed for a few years but thankfully it's all go again now and I couldn't be happier.

43. Have been camping since I was 5. Still remember trips to Bribie Island from back then. Have been 4wheeling for the last 20 years or so.
-
Any chance of getting a poll added to the top of this thread????.........Mods please! ;D
-
It'll have to be updated every year.
-
I'm 45
Started camping at 15 with sister and parents
Started 4x4 at 24
Few non camping periods in between with mates for boys trips.
Started 4x4 and camping again at 32 with wife Sam and have not stopped since.
Kids love it.
Main difference is the comfort levels. 4x4 and camper.
-
Hmmm. I'm 36 too..
36 must be a lucky number ?
Another 36yo here too.
-
32 for another 5 weeks or so ;) Been camping pretty much all my life mostly on the Murray. As for the 4wd Lino6 post above answers that his the other half. Before the Dmax which is my daily drive I had 1997 model Rodeo 4x4, would like to have more time for camping but any time out there is better than none. Cheers Renee
-
56. can't remember first camping trip seems like i've been camping forever. cubs, scouts.cadets at school. dirt bikes,fishing ,shooting, first 4x4 was a fj40 in the 70s
-
38 and been camping/4wding as far back as I can remember. Grew up on Cattle Properties as the old man was a Station manager. It was a good life.

Mr Yoda 37, Mrs Yoda 42, Mr Yoda is a born and bred Territorian, has had a 1978 Suzuki Sierra when he was 12 and taught his nanna to drive, ;D 1980 single cab Hilux, and a 1996 single cab Hilux.
Mrs Yoda had a 1992 Fourrunner that got foolishly rolled near Nhulunbuy :-[ and a 1996 Pajero.
Between the two of us, we've had a 2005 Navara and now a 2011 Grand Cherokee ;D
Oh, the camping bit. Mr Yoda grew up for a bit in Ladjamanu (middle of the middle of nowhere) so has camped since forever. Growing up in Brisbane with a family who didn't camp, Mrs Yoda's first experiences were school camps, and there just weren't enough of them. Together, most of our holidays have been camping ones, from tenting and then to the CT for a few more comforts 8)
-
33 yrs old, been camping since 16, first 4x4 at 22, still can't get enough of either of them! Used to be out every weekend doing both. But don't seem to have the same amount of spare time these days. We still get away pretty regularly though.
-
42...though I did go a whole year once thinking I was 37 when I was really 36, so I could be younger ;)
I've been camping since I was a young kid, and thought I was in heaven when I met my husband as his family owned a camping store and he loved hiking, abseiling, camping etc...
We camp with our kids now every chance we can get, though like most others on here, it's a tad more luxurious now than when I was their age.
As for 4wding, I lived in the NT for a while growing up and everyone had a 4wd. If you didn't have one you couldn't get out of town, except to go to the airport.
Hubby and I picked up our first 4wd in 2009 and we haven't looked back travelling for several weeks a year with the kids, and having lots of fun close to home on the weekends too. We now actually have two 4wds, and they're both Land Rovers (we've got it bad ;D).
There is nothing better than the freedom of camping, and 'Monty' and 'Black Betty' help us get to some of the most amazing places on the planet, which thankfully just happen to be in our magnificent backyard :cup:

43. Camping since a kid. Camped in fairly severe conditions - on one memorable occasion bivouac in sub 0 conditions. During the night a number of our company medivaced off the side of the hill suffering exposure and frostbite. Great night of camping!
-
37 years....was camping from about 4, scouts for 18 years. can thank the neighbour for buying my first car being '84 4 runner, never not owned a 4wd, hate driving wifes Jetta and company 2wd hilux....although hilux does get into some interesting spots ;D
but still prefer getting out in the swag rather than dragging the camper.
-
There you go, now a poll.....:-)
-
I will be 40 in several weeks and the first story my parents shared with me about camping was as a baby. My parents where out shooting (Collinsville) and I crawled out of the panel van and crawled into the bush at night, fortunately they found me after a rather frantic search......:-)
My memories are every Easter and every Christmas for the whole holidays camped at Cane Cockies Cove (The Beak) just outside Shute Harbour in the Whitsundays. Was a fantastic childhood....:-)
-
dam...I near made myself older.....cant have that!!!
around 30-35yrs
before that I did a bit of traveling around Oz in Aunty & Uncles VW kombi. I was like their rent a child as they never had kids till late in life so I got the benefits as aunty was high up with Qantas & they traveled the world always returning with gifts for me ;D .....until they started a family of their own :'(
-

Been camping since the days of scouts and being a wee lad ;D as for 4wd just got myself a realish 4by this year although i did have a kia sportage some 13 years ago and discovered you couldnt take them many places....
-
re did my vote now i feel younger :laugh:
-
38 years old, but lately I fell like I'm 58..........
Not getting bush enough.
I grew up in the bush in Africa so its in the blood, but I moved to be a city slicker at the age of 13 after a few stints OS with the folks.
As soon as I left school, I got back into camping and 4wdíng.
Can't get it out of me.
As they say, you can take the boy out of the bush.............etc
My son started when he was 6 weeks old and I think the daughter was about 3 months old on her first big outback trip.
They love it and so does the wife.
Life can be soooooooooooooo good sometimes. :D :D :D

-

53 in about 6 weeks and really happy about it too.
This is the first time ever, my IQ and my age will match up.....how cools that.
Bit of a late bloomer/slow learner, didn't get into camping until the mid 90's.
-
I am 53 and I was brung up with the camping/fishing/4wd thing, had a fairly major accident when I was about 6, carry the scars for life, but did not scare me for life.
I learnt to drive in an old International Scout 4x4 on bush tracks and rough dirt roads around 14 and a half.
Loved it then and still love it now. ;D
cheers duggie

So glad I wasn't the only one who misread it as their age and ticked that they used to hang around with Jimmy Cook ;D

Thanks for owning up people. I feel so much younger now ;D
Thank You Teabag!

First went camping with my wife shortly after we were married. Then stopped while we had a family and started a business (that whole process took about 30 years!!). Took it up again about 8 years ago when we bought our Subaru Forester. Took two of our 3 sons camping in a tent before we upgraded to a camper trailer. Purchased our first 4x4 (the Prado) in 2008, which we still have.

Okay, I am 53. Without a 4wd we would get nowhere around here where I live. What you fellas call camping we basically call everyday life most of the tme. We generally don't use tent ancd the like,just a couple of blankets on the ground near a fire, but then, we are desert black fellas. Been doing it all out lives.

55.95 yrs yung.
Did a bit of camping as a kid with school & cubs/scouts. Loved it but the olds weren't into it at all. Threatened to take my boys camping but always allowed work or other things to get in the way until I became a single dad. That wake up call got me of my arse, bought my first 4wd, a new '96 diesel Pajero and am now on my 4th (1x Pajero, 2 x Grenade pootrols 1 x TTD 200 Series).
We progressed from a garden trailer to carry all the clobber, to an "off road" box trailer to a Kimberley Kamper to the current AOR Quantum.
Couldn't be happier than when camped in the bush, no TV, no traffic noise. Off to Cape Leveque at end of June! ;D

Tjupurula I have worked as a nurse in a couple of top end communities, some of you blokes do it tough............I went hunting pigs on foot with a TO in Arnhem land in 2009 and had the legs walked off me by a 75 yo traditional man, and I thought I was pretty fit!!

A question for you. Do we do it tough, or is it jus that most people are used to all the moden things that we still do not use all that much, or to be more honest, cannot afford? A lot of black fellas would probably use such things if they could buy them.

I am in my 50's and never had a 4x4 before, the Dmax is our first. The only problem with being old is the brain ian't as good as it used to be and trying to retain all the info is a little hard at times.
But I guess it's like everything else, do it on a regular basis and it soon becomes habit. I just have stop upgrading the Dmax and get out and use it ;D
-
63. My first camping memories were @ Hervey Bay in a lean to tent a mate & I bought for equivalent of $10. Swapped it for a box of Lego when the kids came along and now back into it with a CT.

40. Started camping with my family was I was about 5 or 6.

65 for me.
I have been camping all my life. Dad started taking me sailing, fishing and camping as soon as I could walk.
We used to sleep in the car, an old Vanguard, always cook on an open fire, spend the days hiking, swimming or fishing and they were some of the best days of my life.

well thats true enough Tjupurula, the blackfellas I know like many of the same comforts I do but as you say its being able to access/afford them thats the issue. I think the modern urbanized man is very soft........I look at my sons mates, most are barely able to change a tyre or use a spanner, the hardy and resourceful man is almost gone, sleeping a night on the ground would break most of them :laugh:

47, Been camping for 25 years off & on.
The first camping trip was overnight, as a kid a few us got a mates older brother to drive us from Ballina to Byron Bay. We camped in a couple of tents right on the beach front at the First sun Caravan Park, it was a surfing weekend
Had pizza for dinner, and a lot of beers (http://www.hairfysh.com/images/Icons/Smileys/pass%20out.gif)
It bucketed down rain and we got as wet as shags.
The sun came out the next morning and flogged us.
Use to camp most weekends as a young bloke up & down the coast, manly surfing trips with the boys.
Before Fysh & I got married we traveled to Nowra, camped down & back in a tent. Stayed at some great spots on the beaches.
05 we had a tent.

We then bought a trailer, and it has grown from there.

Don't worry Marcus, you have been referred to only as a little strange, believe me, most people these days consider me completely out of date. I am from the desert, have no tolerance for political correctness, as well as being black and disliking the so called black fellas in towns.....You could call me strange beyond reason, and I would say thanks.

Started the week long trips at 12. Did a few overnight shorties before then starting around 5.
Mum doesn't like camping, and neither of them wanted to take me too far away from power as I had asthma and needed a powered thingy fairly often, especially if I ran around.
It eased up around 12 and we also got a generator so the machine came on the trip with us. I did have a small attack that year, but haven't had an issue since.
24 now.
