Impact Off Road Testimonial - Ronald and Dina
Ronald and Dina We live in Tasmania and purchased an impact ute in 2017 off Colin Cook to use on our farm with sheep and beef cattle. Colin sent you a message the other day about the VIN number as we are wanting to get a RV rego. We got the VIN from Colin and we are wondering what the Make, Model, Series and year of Manufacture is , if that's not too much of a problem to ask. I have added some photos of the vehicle and plate. And just to add that we love the ute and don't know what we would do without it as we use it at lambing time ( which is now) and the sheep are fairly used to it because it isn't noisy like a 4 wheeler and it's dry and warm.

"Ordered a part from their website and they made the purchase easy and hassle free! Quickly got what I needed in time for the weekend too. Awesome service."

"Shout out to Chris at IMPACT OFFROAD. I live in Australia. Smooth transaction all the way. These guys are professionals and the communication was excellent! I will recommend this company anytime. Oliver."

"The staff at Impact gave outstanding service when I purchased my truck. I am thrilled with my Daihatsu Jumbo Cab and enjoy coming back to Impact each year to get it serviced. I highly recommend Impact Off Road."

"Our quad truck is a Daihatsu lifted up for clearance and with quad tyres. I bought it new from them at the field days and it is just the job for these rocky, slippery clay soils. It performs really well, barely uses any fuel, and is brilliant for getting about and carrying fencing and weed control gear and other paraphernalia. The cab is just big enough for two people and is waterproof. The Tray is just long enough to carry fence posts. We bought one with a solid roll frame around the cab and extra lights. It's great. The Impact people have been helpful and obliging. I recommend these vehicles and would not be without them."

"It's taken the place of the horse. Safe to drive, no body roll, very economic to run. They drive anywhere, and I mean anywhere. They are very safe, you can even stop of the side of a hill without spinning. I couldn't do with out it. It's my main tool on the farm, second is the dogs"

"The cab is great, it's warm it's dry. I can put the radio an while I trundle off down the back of the farm."

"These trucks are versatile and reliable. I love that I can drive where I want and feel safe."

"I can take my toddler to work with me every day and he's in a safe, warm, dry environment where he can watch me work. It's been a great little truck."

"It's a bloody good truck and we should have got it years ago!"

Chris McPhail
Director

The word family has been ingrained alongside the Impact Off Road brand since it’s start date 20 years ago. It has always been a family affair when Brent McPhail laid the foundation over the past two decades for its next successor to have a platform to build off of and make it their own. Chris McPhail, commander and chief of Impact Off Road has taken the reins of the company and launched it into its next stage of progress, growth and evolution. Chris’s early introduction into Impact Off Road was his keen interest in the family business in particular, the automotive industry. His first taste of what life would be like if the opportunity ever yielded itself was when Chris would find himself delivering trucks after his day was completed at school. 2009 saw Chris's integration into the business where his desire for success and keen eye for growth was conceived.

Chris’s passion for business and opportunity has bled into new ventures where he aims to take a hold of the 4x4 Off-roading market across New Zealand. He confidently places his brand in the next 5 years to be a household name in the 4x4 off-roading circuit, making waves as he services the kiwi public and an international audience to the very best parts, accessories and service. Although his attention needs to be divided between his business ventures, Chris still has a firm grip on what has gotten him to the place he is able to operate at now, the humble Impact 4x4 Quadtruck.

Successful leaders practice what they preach, are mindful of their actions and lead by example. From packaging boxes to making executive decisions, delegating responsibilities and being your typical hard working bloke, Chris McPhail possesses qualities that his team can all rally behind for the betterment of the company and make an Impact. Outside of work, Chris enjoys hitting the weights, keeping active, car racing and spending time with his son.
