Isuzu Ute Customer Stories
Cedar & Suede
Owners of a flourishing design and construction business - Cedar and Suede, Carlene and Michael Duffy are always busy juggling projects and moving equipment. You may recognise them as former finalists on Channel 9’s ‘The Block’. Now with their Cedar and Suede business, their own TV show Ready Set Reno, a vintage caravan restoration business, AND a young family - they are busier than ever. This is their Isuzu Story.
“We find the MUX to be really comfortable and it’s got everything that we need. When we’ve got one of our big vans on the back, you can really feel the power of the engine.”

Keith
Keith Douglas and his wife took a leisurely drive in the Natural Bridge hinterland, 45 mins from their home in the Gold Coast and fell in love. They found a property of 135 acres of rainforest, waterfalls and stunning views.
“Well they say you don’t find your home it finds you. We found this place by accident but once we were here, we knew this is where we wanted to be. Simple as that”
With such a large property there’s a lot of maintenance to do. In Keith’s words there’s “Always things to do, always things to tow. That’s why you need a good ute”. Not content with experiencing the lush area themselves, Keith and his wife opened up the property to campers.
“This place is really special, and we’d be happy to spend the rest of our lives here”.
Serotonin handled the story, video production and stills on this project. We wanted to go beyond the typical ute ad and tell the stories of the customers who use them every day.

The Ralstons
As a local real estate agent in Batemans Bay, NSW, Sarah Ralston is used to singing the praises of the area. This picturesque township hardly needs any selling however, as its beautiful beaches, humming marina, sweeping river and friendly community vibe quickly entices any new visitor and make it near impossible for them to leave.
Sarah and her family live across the road from the bay, and in summer, they practically live at the beach. Her husband David is a keen bodyboarder and it’s pretty hard to keep their three kids - Kaitlin, Zoe and Campbell - out of the water. They’re an active family and are also involved in rugby league, touch footy and running, but when the temperature drops in the winter months, for them, it’s all about camping.
Serotonin handled the story, video production and stills on this project, and we're currently packing the car to go camping ourselves.

4ASD Kids / Isuzu Ute
It’s quite possible that we won’t work on a more inspirational story than this, ever. Dual international footballer Matt Rogers and his media personality wife Chloe Maxwell are the heart and soul behind the charity 4ASD Kids, and they’re doing incredible work helping others to access the help they need for kids with autism. They set up 4ASD Kids a decade ago after their son Max was diagnosed with autism, and they’ve not stopped fundraising since, including organising all kinds of epic events. We’re so grateful to have had the chance to create this story in partnership with Isuzu Ute, who are great supporters of 4ASD Kids. We handled the video script, concept, production, story and stills.
