We finally take the new caravan and Landcruiser 300 Series out for a test in the bush for the night. We cook a delicious roast pork on the spit over the fire and find out that our caravan toilet is not plumbed to the mains water as it doesn't flush!

Great video guys! King Billy is a very wise man! “Stayin right out of this!!”🤣🤣 Never seen one of those toilet cassettes before, interesting to know.

Thanks Tony! Yes KB is all over it! The toilet is very interesting, it’ll probably take us a while to get used to it.

Great setup. The toilet debacle shows the importance of smaller shakedown trips.

Thanks Peter and agree 100%. We are learning and adapting to new things each time we use the van.

Hi Katherine, thanks for your message. Yes we both share the driving as it’s important for both of us to be confident towing. It’s a great spot hidden away! Thanks for watching and commenting!

Ah, Laura you forgot the 'Bloody Squeaky Door'...............🤣🤣🤣 Great vid. The toilet saga was interesting. So much for a 'handover'. Keep us posted on the anti sway system setup, need that to be working correctly when you start the long trips away.👍
@JourneyUnknown
@JourneyUnknown Год назад
Hey Colin! Thanks for the reminder! That video was filmed before the last vid we put up so next time we go to the farm we’ll fix both the washing machine and front doors from all the squeaks. Yes we sure will, it’s so hard to find places to go away to at the moment due to the whole east coast being drenched and flooded. 😔

Yer I think them hooks are illegal in SA but a good idea tho easy as , hope the 300 got good seals in back would hate the dogs sniffing fumes and eating dust , interesting to see how the 300 goes on ya trip hope all them fancy electrics and sensors don't let ya down , good luck I'm pressing that button 😀

I get the feeling that the new style 4x4s should carry duck tape in glove box if they venture out off the city limits 🤔

Good on you Laura for towing the van. I’ll have to start towing too-I’m ashamed to say I’ve left it to my hubby for too long 😅
@JourneyUnknown
@JourneyUnknown Год назад
Ohh thanks so much! I’ve towed for about 10 years so have plenty of experience with big and smaller vans. I’ve met many ladies on the road who’s partners do all the driving and towing. I highly recommend you getting a lesson and then sharing the driving and towing. If anything happens to our partners, the other half needs to take over. Good luck!

Great vid guys, however I noticed when servicing your loo the blue chem was put in the flush tank, that is incorrect as the blue chem breaks down the waste and should go into the toilet cassette , with a little water then a good shake before fitting it back into place, the flush tank which is the top filler should have the pink flush additive which give a nice fragrance when flushing do not use too much as virus loves the stuff and causes issues with fungi in the flush tank .
@JourneyUnknown
@JourneyUnknown Год назад
Hello! Thanks for watching and commenting. Our rinse for the toilet was blue in this case and so it went in the flush area. We put the powder sachets or a purple cleaner in the cassette for cleaning / break down. There are a few different colours we use but definitely don't put cleaning chemicals in the rinse area. =)

Noticed the hooks you fitted for your vans chains sorry but you have them on back to front you won’t be covered if you have an accident

Good call we were actually concerned because we heard that these hooks aren't legal in certain states.

You may already have the ESC sorted but I see you have a Red Anderson plug (disconnected) which is usually for ESC but you said it's wired through the 12 pin plug. You may actually have your brake controller fighting with the caravan ESC and not the 300's sway control. Just something worth looking at.
@JourneyUnknown
@JourneyUnknown Год назад
Totally agree. we were told from our dealer to get a red anderson. When we collected the van they said nah you don't need it they ran the ESC through the 12pin plug. Not being an auto electrician we have no idea. Do you think it's worth having it plugged through the anderson plug?
@stewierun9940
@stewierun9940 Год назад
@@JourneyUnknown hope you don’t mind jumping in but yes you have to have a direct constant power from the crank battery . We had to run the second Anderson through to the ESC
@gettingtheretravel
@gettingtheretravel Год назад
@@JourneyUnknown No difference really, the red Anderson is so you can disconnect the ESC when off road (I run my ESC through the 12pin). Get a good auto sparky to check but I would bet you’re getting feedback from / to the brake controller. Have a look on both the Redarc and Alko sites (can’t remember which) but there is information about this exact issue.
