#92 - MAC PRESTON & BURTO

June 21, 2026 · 1 h 13 min

Show notes

In this episode, Tony is joined by Mac Preston, with a special guest appearance by our good mate, Burto.


Mac Preston is one half of the hugely popular TJ AND MAC YouTube channel, the owner of Shed Life, and a familiar face in the Aussie 4WD community.


Mac shares how his automotive journey began, growing up with a Dad who was a V8 fanatic, creating a passion for cars that Mac has maintained throughout his life. From starting out with mini trucks and air-bagged Hondas before progressing into building custom 4WDs, he's gone on to create some of the most iconic 4WDs in Australia, including his epic 79 series Land Cruiser - DAD BUS, and more recently his wild custom Chev K Truck.


Tony and the boys chat about the challenges and benefits of life as a YouTube content creator, solving the puzzle of technical 4WDing and picking lines, the tracks and trips the boys still want to complete, and some of the new builds coming up on the TJ AND MAC channel.
