在本文中，我认为，四轮驱动汽车的普及具有重要的后果，当代的地方观念，他应该在高科技，特别是通信系统的热潮的背景下考虑。四轮驱动文化包含了城市或郊区与大自然，特别是荒野之间的文字流动性和幻想关系。通过使用澳大利亚的经验作为一个案例研究，我表明，四轮驱动文化在建设什么可以被称为内陆和远郊的关键部分。因此，它在重新谈判民族身份的图像中发挥了重要作用。
In this paper I argue that the popularity of four-wheel drive vehicles has important consequences for contemporary notions of place and should he considered in the context of the upsurge in high-tech, especially communication, systems. Four-wheel drive culture encompasses both a literal mobility and a fantasy relationship between urban or suburban regions and those of the great outdoors, especially wilderness. By using the Australian experience as a case study I show that four-wheel drive culture plays a crucial part in the construction of what could be called the deep outback and the deep suburbs. It thereby plays a significant role in a renegotiation of the iconography of national identity.
