I waited 43 years for a new 4wd 😀🎉 

I bloody love this! You deserve this mate I’ve watched you from day one paul your a bloody legend! All the best maté hopefully seeya back over here in sa oneday on the river!

Great work Toyota Busselton good to see people supporting each other

Great to see Laurie and Busselton Toyota giving back. More importantly its great to see you getting back on your feet. I am sure you will repay Laurie 10 times over with loyalty. Nice rig!!!!! When I am passing through on my lap in my 300 guess where I will stop for a service and any other work needed, Good on ya Laurie for giving this guy a break, god knows he needed it. Keep going man there is always a light a the end of the tunnel.

So happy to see that stuff is starting to turn for you Paul. Thanks Laurie for your generosity in helping your employees

I am really pleased for you. Huge call out to Laurie... what a Man!

Onwards and upwards Paul!! How awesome is Laurie!!! Theilled for you !!

That's wicked mate! Congrats! Actually when I was shopping for a Toyota I had heaps of recommendations for the Busso dealer, despite being 300kms away! Must be good folk! 👍

That a great thing. To see that Australians are helping Australians. If we all do one thing to help someone. You will feel better about yourself, and one day, someone else will help you in return. By just Saying Hello, to a stranger. Or say Have A Great Day. Can be a start. From little things, big things grow. Great build. And have a great day.

Amazing mate, well deserved. Can't wait to see the rest of the build

Laurie you are a legend.

Well done mate! Love the build. That phone mount is epic hey. I have one in my Hilux and it just works so well.

ohhh wow, thats bloody good they allowed you to do that. Cant wait for the next video. PS I got the sticker and the items you sent me like a month ago thanks.

Looks soo good mate!! Can't wait to see the final setup!

Good on ya mate, having awesome bosses like Laurie always make ya want to put in that bit more effort at work. Happy for you mate.

Congratulations Paul. Well done buddy. Life is full of surprises good and bad but we keep pushing on because there is always a sunny day amongst the grey. Regards, from Mario.

Good to see your back on track with your life. Your boss is one hell of a great guy for getting behind you and lifting your spirits. Tell him your subscribers think he is a good man.

Well done Laurie, employer of the year. Good video mate. All the best.

Good things happen to good people your boss obviously sees your potential and this is a investment and u will stick around and be a good employee. Great work

Looking good! Keen for the build!

Ripper mate!!! keep doing what your doing👍🏾

It is great to get happiness in your life. Well done. My case is still ongoing, and I have been told it is going to be longer. That's OK. It's great to see you smile. Thanks for this video. Russell

What a great story! Well done Laurie . Looking forward to following the build. I’m in process for buying an SR EXTRA Cab and hadn’t considered genuine accessories, but l will definitely have look at them. Thanks for sharing a fantastic outcome that put a smile on my face.

WOW Paul. About time things are turning around for you. What a top employer Laurie is looking after his employees. You don't see that much anymore. Hats off to Busselton Toyota. Love your build video going to be nice when completed. GVM on Extra Cabs comes off your 3.5 tow not like the twin cab keeps there 3.5 tow. Extra Cab all the way I love them. New content adventures down the road going to be some great new video's. Cheers Paul and Cheers Busselton Toyota.

Congrats on the rig mate; looking great on the accessories so far.

Enjoy your new hilux mate, Sad to see the old girl is gone she brought me to your channel but on wards and upwards 😊

That’s awesome news . Got to love the excitement of future trips and build up 😎🍻

Also really interesting video. Good to see what happens in the back.

Enjoy your new wheels Paul & God bless Laurie!

Love Toyota. My daughter and husband bought a new kluger hybrid this year. They found the same thing, just as easy to manage repayments on new as it was on used. They absolutely love it. Best fit with 4kids and they had a very comfortable drive 12 hrs to Melbourne in it already. I call it the sneaky car because you don’t hear it pull up. 😂

Congrats on the new wheels..... glad to see things are starting to turn your way.

Good to watch professional doing the fit out

Good to see a big smile on your face mate, look forward to the rest of the build

Thats awesome mate things are taking a turn for you. Seems like you have a great team at Busselton Toyota. The new Rig is looking mint 👌

Good to hear you're doing well brother and you're doing well at your job with a good boss very good there Toyota

Awesome buddy, very good choice and a 'sick 4x4' No excuses on getting those camping videos out there!

Happy for you mate. Rig looking great. Seems like you have a great boss and a good working environment.

Congratulations Paul! Wow look at you, you have a smile like The Cheshire Cat! I'm so relieved to see that your world is falling into place! I enjoyed my 2002 Hilux but like you, I couldn't trust it to go remote traveling. My 2012 Colorado is by far a better vehicle than the old Lux and I've put a lot of work and money into it over the last 4 or 5 months. After watching your new build, I wish I had the money to build something similar from scratch. I'm looking forward to seeing stage 2 and ultimately the 1st of many adventures! I must also say a big thank you to your boss! Bosses like him don't come around too often these days! Once again, congratulations!

Great to see you doing well mate! Keep inching forward, it will get easier and easier

If you are going to the trouble of a raised air intake you should of made it waterproof,Safri ,TJM would have been my choice but It is your rigg.Onya Camp.🙂

Great build on your new rig mate 💯 I'm happy it's all working out for you 👍

Nice Build with the Hilux 😊 Great to see things working for you 🎉

well done mate best for the future

Congrats mate! It sounds like you have a job for life there!

mate that looks amazing and its great to watch you do work on your own vehicle!

I was very happy for you Paul that you are on track with new work place and Thanks for Toyota ( what a feeling) . Thanks for all your videos.

Good on you mate, good to see you happy and nice car 🍻

So happy for you mate. I know it’s been tough for you. You should be very proud of how you have handled yourself and the situation, as should your young fella. Onwards and upwards mate- don’t look back.

You will feel awesome driving around in it now 😊😊😊

Good on you mate. Great video, and great to see things picking up for you. Would love to catch up if I ever get back to WA. Shout out to Laurie at Busselton Toyota.

Bloody awesome mate. Heaps happy for you Now out some kms on that thing and I’ll meet you on the eyre peninsula 😂

Grats mate .. keep them videos coming !v

Hey mate, great video! Glad to see you getting on top of things, I have a 2012 extra cab hilux I’ve done a canopy fit out on, happy to show you what I’ve managed to do, anyway keep up the great work and well done Toyota Busselton

Top stuff buddy. Lookin good

Congrats, things are looking up mate and well done to Busselton Toyota. And this isn't just Toyota but all 4wd makers, they know we add lightbars and 12v accessories. Why the heck don't they make a standard plug and play pickup point for high beams somewhere sensible instead of having to gut the whole car? And why can't they have a simple 12v bussbar behind an easy to access panel somewhere down under the infotainment to power accessories like CB, dashcam, navigation, phone chargers etc.

Mate I am so happy for you, things are going well for you. I hope this trend continues, stay happy 😎

Awesome video mate, love it keep up this content 👏🏽

What an awesome story mate and so glad I came across your channel and to see someone work hard through the lows to get to the other side. I can feel your pain mate - but great work! On the east coast I have formed a good relationship with the GM of Llewellen Toyota who is a ledgend and same, loves helping people! Cheers !

A can reader from Canm8 will give you a high beam without all that dashboard removal in future.

Wicked mate, you deserve it can't, wait to see the next video

Bloody awesome mate your gonna love it 🤙

Great ep paul congrats on your new car it’s good to see it’s getting better for you self , I have a 2017 sr5 and since I got my spottes installed I have a headlight system malfunction code could this be because my auto electrician did not put the Toyota genuine loom in cheers if you can help

fantastic to see mate, great to see you find your feet again. and well done to Busselton Toyota too! great to see a company get behind its employees. just a thought but maybe consider doing some more technical videos with installs and wiring etc. especially since you do it everyday! share them little nuggets of knowledge that comes with knowing a platform inside and out. not often a master of his craft has a platform like this to share his knowledge. also 100% agree with the rim choice! I don't think there is a nicer factory wheel out there, my Boss puts them on all our field service Utes and they look a million bucks! looking forward to what's next!

well done mate well deserved love it!! keep smashing it and huge things to come with adventures in the new bus, bring on the Pilbara??

That's called CARMA!

Glad to see you happier mate. Not sure a 90k+ financed build was the smart financial decision.. If financed over 5 years, I would predict over $300 a week in repayments, absolute minimum..

Awesome video , seen a lot of build video’s in the last years , but with your back story and use of genuine parts i learnt something keep it up , In the future we should organise to do a camp or even a iconic track in the next year or so. I live in perth but will be joining the grey army in the next few months so ill have time on my hands

What a fantastic boss ! Great karma coming your way.

That is awesome ,Love bosso. We would like to offer you an awning for stage 2. Let us know if you are keen because we would like to help you out.

❤❤❤
