Why I moved out of my house to travel 3,000km & live in a 4wd from the 80's

I leave my home town Renmark South Australia to move across to Western Australia living out of my old 1989 hilux that doesn't even have aircon.
Am I crazy ? Possibly but it's worth it to chase my dreams.
How far would you go to chase your dreams ?

I have the same hilux. It also has the old fashioned aircon called 4wd, (4 windows down). Never felt the need for A/C up here in Queensland. Open the quarterglass window and funnel the air stream into your shorts....better than any aircon. The heater also got pulled out 15 years ago, so in the mornings when the windscreen is fogged up, you need to drive with your head out the side window until it clears.

The riverland where I come from was always in the 40's during summer and I haven't had ac in the hilux for over 5 years 🤣 I had everything I needed in there for the ac to work besides a new compressor. But rather than fix it I removed everything. The old hilux has no power at all & an ac would just take away precious power I need 🤣 it does suck in summer though

Yeah some big changes for sure mate. Sometimes we have to take a leap of faith. My in laws came from Europe when my wife was a toddler with basically nothing. My mother was from New Zealand and one of our kids partners parents came through one of the worst genocidal events in modern history. We moved to SA away from family in Victoria decades ago. Life has a way of sorting itself out I've found. Great beaches over that way for sure and I will be getting my beach fix soon down in the Deep Creek conservation park and around Victor, Goolwa etc.

Nice mate it will be a massive change for sure, but you will see more places than just a river with the same scenery. I do the same speed in my Hilux on the road going somewhere, if people want to overtake that's up to them as we know these old Hilux's will chew the fuel if the RPMs are up but taking our time is better than rushing to get to places. But can't wait for the next video is up when you arrive to WA and to your new town.
@Campingdownunder
@Campingdownunder 11 месяцев назад
Exactly right mate 👍 I've already filmed a few more videos on the trip over. But I'm thinking about doing some fishing tomorrow. Not sure if I'll film or not. Now that I'm here I've got plenty of time to film the area 😀

Only you can make a decision like this and we are all here for you. Life can change quickly and sometimes you have to grab the bull by the horns. Other times we have time to reflect. Life throws up some crap and times and and we all have to react. Go with your gut feeling..... If that doesnt work life goes on and can be tough but does get better.
