The Eucla motel rooms are really nice. Stayed 1 night so we didnt have to set up the camper trailer (before we sold it for a Van Off rd van). Always purchase fuel at the Puma self serve out of town. Much cheaper. Want to go back and do gold detecting in the Kimberleys. But the cost of fuel brings tears to the eyes and the budget. Come to Cape Douglas, SE of SA on the coast, near Port MacDonnell. Howls here for days on end with 90+km winds. Only take waxed cardboard boxes into WA for storage as they confiscate normal ones. But they replace what they confiscate.
Hello from the Gold Coast 🤟 Great videos guys also very in depth videos on vehicle and caravan weights” It’s Sunday morning 03:20am I’m trying to get to bed 😂been watching your videos for a couple of hours lol I have a Ranger as well so it’s a great insight on weights , 😊
@@nowornever_aus So true mate , I finally finished watching your videos at 06:55am and off the bed after your last Cape York video 😂 it’s incredible how much you guys changed the interior look of your van it looks a million dollars, once you’ve experienced dual axle caravans you never go back to single axle I learnt the hard way my first two caravans were single axle as well, the only advice if I could suggest is swap out your Venetian Blinds and replace with roller blinds they will give you more privacy, make the inside darker, help with outside noise at night as well as better insulating in summer and winter. Plus they won’t move around when travelling. You will find the Venetian Blinds will drive you both crazy when the wind rattles through them day and night. A light tint on your windows will make such a huge difference in summer when your running the air conditioning insulating the van better and giving you more privacy during the day while inside and save your air conditioner from working as hard especially when you’re using batteries off grid. Unfortunately everything we do costs more money. Anyway looking forward to seeing your next uploads, happy travels 👍
U guys in coffs over Xmas where heading down from cairns love to meet u guys at a pub mrs dad lives in repton there for a week love ur work guys starting to plan our own trip in the next 2 years or before hopefully ❤️🇦🇺🙏🍻🤙
Thanks for the video. The Nullarbor is on my bucket list just to say I've been across there. Hey mate with regards to the coaster bus, from memory and it is a long memory from quite a few years ago some vehicles Wheel nuts and wheel stud threads go the other way to tighten and loosen them. Could be something worth storing in the memory bank.
I really enjoyed this vid and didn’t skip any ads on this one guys, hope it helps the budget 😉 i think that’s how it works isn’t it?? Thanks for sharing your adventure over the past 15 months. Take care
Another great video to watch and learn not everything on the road is perfect and money doesn't forever. Plus I always get travel tips. What size tyres did you run on the Ranger. Good luck to you and your family and best wishes for your next adventure.. Travel Safe and Enjoy 👍🏼🇦🇺
Those machines you could hear and see were headers. The channeling of the water on the rock was done by the early settlers to catch water for stock and for travellers as they passed thru the area. Those rocks are granite and not too porous. 👍
Combine harvesters, Australia and US, same , Water is scarce, water traps, If your not sure left or right thread, have a close look at spiral, not too hard, Hope work is going well for you , , The worst fuel my 100 series did was 23, best 18.1, So much for small motors and there fuel economy, Enjoyed episode Cheers Bevan 🤠❤️🦘🦘🇦🇺
Mate, you guys are so raw and true to ya roots!! I’m not one to subscribe but I hit that button 👍 As we are heading off on our own adventure at the end of the year as a family of 4 and similar van size ( wild child Sunseeker) I couldn’t not!! I’ve already gone back to the start of your trip. Absolutely frothing to go and can’t bloody wait!!! Good luck with the future and who knows, we might cross roads and have that beer with ya yeewww🍻🤙
Another amazing video. Thank you guys. By now you are back home and maybe already planning the next big lap… might send you a sneaky message to find out 😉
Hey guys great honest video/review, would you consider working on the road next time you travel around OZ? Overall are you happy with the choice of tow vehicle? What would you consider changing too? Keep up the great work
Thank you! Yes will definitely work to keep the budget happy. Ranger has been a great tow vehicle as long as the weights are good, if the money was there we’d upgrade to something that can tow more in a heartbeat though!
I commend you guy’s for being very open with your financial situation, most aren’t. Can I ask how much $ you started with when you left? Interested to know as you guy’s have definitely enjoyed to journey and not held back.
time to get back to work and get some money :( any idea what your L/ 100km are towing the van?? looking forward to see what you are doing in the future stay safe
If you had gone the other way you'd have undone the wheel nuts. Japanese light trucks/ buses have left and right hand thread wheel studs. But hey atleast you stopped.
