We're an Aussie family, Adam, Megan and our two kids Willow and Harper with an absolute passion for everything touring, camping and exploring Australia.
We're not a full-time travelling family. We live for weekenders and plan bigger trips regularly. We've now travelled the whole Australian mainland (we're coming for you soon Tassie) and have had some epic adventures, mainly off-grid style. We both have part-time jobs, but our passion is always for the next trip.
We started STS back in 2017, a 4x4 accessory brand Adam created from an idea and determination. Our Quick Fit Bracket system was born; a first of it's kind to the market, a bracket set allowing you to add and remove a vehicle pull-out awning in seconds and without a single tool. Over the years of travelling, we have produced other innovative products which we offer and sell all over the world.
Follow along with us with our travels and touring projects on RU-vid!
To be fair it might not have been younger people. Many younger campers want the bush to be clean too and quite a few older people can be grubs. I'm not young by the way. Also older people also do drink caffeine rubbish drinks too. The take away is, if you can bring it in you can take it out.
Corn on the cob cooking tip. The corn cooks moister and no chance of burning if you leave the husks and silk on the cob . Just, top and tail it. Stays moister and much better flavour.
Adam it was a pleasure meeting you at the 4x4 show and an awesome ute you have built...hopefully the meatpie cooled down and you got to enjoy it keep up the good work really enjoying...cheers
It’s not the brumbies tearing up the turf it’s the pigs. I’ve watched them up there at night. They rip up the turf and eat the worms. They have a good sense of smell. The brumbies just eat grass and just walk through wet grounds.
Years ago I took curried sausages into work for lunch and my Indian friend got really upset and said there's no such thing as curried sausages and refused to look at my plate.
Is there a composting toilet option? Seems more and more caravan (drag your holiday home behind you) manufactures are starting to include a composting toilet option.
I looked at the situation in 2019 ( even more true post Covid in 2024), on a per year ownership cost for just the vehicle, you are either on par or better off than buying a second hand of all the popular Toyota 4wd. Check out the secondhand prices (redbook) and work out a 10 year ownership cost or say 200-250k ownership cost. So if you have cash to buy new, buy new, and know that mechanically it would fine for many years and someone else hasn’t butchered the car… it’s really a case of poor man pays more…😢 good channel - way more objective and none of the confirmation bias than other many other youtubers
We've just arrived home today from Polblue Barrington Tops. We live about 2 hrs from there. And it is one of our favourite camping site's. We do Banksia campsite as well. It's so beautiful there
Hi guys love your videos we’re looking at purchasing the UEV14 just wondering if you guys have done any videos on the full set up of the bat wing Annexe with the walls and what’s your thoughts on how easy it is to set up, because we can’t seem to find anything about it on youtube. Cheers Natasha
Hi Natasha. Sorry we haven’t done a setup video of the full set of awning walls, it’s something we should definitely do. We do put the first wall on around the kitchen regularly and works well to block the rain out. The walls are quite easy to put on in general. It’s just not something we have felt the need to do as yet. Thanks for watching and best wishes with the purchase.
Well done! A lot of common sense and experience in this build instead of just throwing the credit card at it. And respect for admitting that a lot is about the looks. Love what you did with the winch. Clean lines - looks good and like you, I think the risk of animal strike is overstated if you don't drive at dawn and dusk.
As someone who is currently looking its a fascinating and timely video. It's tough because in my head I think that the 490 is the pick. Better to take to places like Moreton Is but speaking to experienced people who go travelling a bit.... well they all say you will regret not getting a hybrid or straight to caravan. I guess you got to listen to those with experiences.
I saw your 79 at the Sydney 4x4 show today, it's a great rig mate. I love the Gworks tray and canopy (compliments to them on a great product) and I know what I will be getting when I receive my 79.
I personally reckon the best wheel tyre combo is the factory workmate steelies with Toyo open country muddies. Skinny’s are the best from my experience
