You guys are giving your kids such a rich childhood of experiences all while supporting regional small businesses, go you! Subscribed👍

Lost me at ATC bullshit

Thanks for taking the time to video this. I managed to change my hub bearings today because of your video. The only thing missing is how to change the bearing races. That was fun 😂

And.......

Great video, well presented, I can do it with absolute confidence now..thankyou

So many design issues with Lotus, you'd think that watching Trip In A Van's review of their Trooper that Lotus walks on water. The difference between a sponsored vs non sponsored?

wow I need that type of tv for my old folks. I hope they sell it in my country

Great video. How much did you pay for your van and what was the wait on the build?

Hi Guys What’s happened..where are you? Have I missed something?

Wow mate don't take it back to the same place... I'll stop short of calling him a mechanic

Loved this review. We have a 2019 Trooper and have to agree that the windows are complete and utter rubbish. We have tried sealing inside with silicon, and good quality magnetic screens but none of this resolves the issue to our satisfaction. They have to be replaced as we cannot leave windows open from dusk onwards, so I am keen to see how you go finding a fit for purpose replacement. Ditto that flaming light over the door, location of the water tap on drawbar, useless jockey wheel, the location of the power inlet and the front toolbox. Most issue you mention we also have and agree with your comments (eg shower drain, leaking shower door, dunny roll holder etc). I could add a long list to this which I just ended up sorting myself. Don't get me wrong, we love our Trooper and it takes a beating and comes back for more, but the quality and attention to detail were not close to an acceptable standard for a van at this price point. The only consolation is that form our travels it seems most van builders have similar quality and attention to detail issues. Lotus have been good to deal with, though slow to respond. Our dealer in WA was disgraceful and is no longer a Lotus agent.

great set up

👍

Do you know what size containers you used in the cupboard near the bunks?

maybe a jayco all terain.. lol could have holidayed for 6-12 months longer

Can you elaborate on how you connected, and which wires you soldered the brake controller into to create the bundle? Cheers mate, great stuff!

Wow, I hope there’s warning signs up after your experience. This looks really unsafe. I hope this doesn’t happen again.

Junk it’s ok maybe for dinky toys

Does the 12 volt feed from pins 2 and 3 on the 12 pin connector only feed the ALKO ESC ? or does it do both and charge the caravan battery while your driving

Guys, thank you for an excellent review, I reckon you have saved me a lot of time and frustration with your recommendations- I am just about to book a Lotus build and you video was outstanding, to the point and so informative. Thanks again, Mark

Beautiful

Wish they would start selling these in the US. We only get Conquer and MDC. Need more options to push the overlanding market with setups for rugged trailers that have room for larger families.

Looking at doing this. Thanks for the video. If on mains water at a caravan park, how does it go with regards to over flowing the water tank?

Nice

All ready for a walk! 🐾

Hi, I’ve had the water saver installed on my motorhome. Do you get a small amount of water coming out of water overflow on the outside of your van? Thank you.

Looks a bit floppy underneath near grommet. Could you epoxy glue a little bracket on?

Do you have a link for where you can get the valve?

Hey mate, interested to know what weights the van ended up and how you went with Tare, GTM, ATM, Ball weights etc... Might be a good content :)

Thank you for this must pay this place a camping visit well done on your video

Ooh I do like those square plates where do you get them please?

After cleaning, i always also closely inspect the bearings, bearing outer cones, and axle seal for any damage or wear etc....first time i services wheel bearings on my Jayco outback Hawke, i found one of the bearing seals spring was broken, so i replaced it and brought some spares, which always go into the boot of the van...

Great video, just installed one and it works great when the pump is on. Only tricky problem I have had is when connected to mains the hot water won’t come through. Have you experienced this?

Scotch locks are one of the worst ways to connect wires

Was totally worth the effort to get up there for sure!!

For starters if your going to zoom In on a label leave it a bit longer so we can see what the label says. And i might have to put a " um" counter on

Interested in what you do for internet access when you are travelling?

😱😱 I went there😊

Which J35 do you have? Is it suitable to charge the lithium battery's? When connected to 240v, is the j35 able to safely change the lithium? Cheers.

Thank you. Just what the fans and I needed.

Please excuse the quality of my English. I'm from Russia and I've never seen a better review. Thanks a lot!

Some well thought out critiques of your van. I can tell you have spent some time detailing your observations. Having said that - I couldn’t help thinking: “My three-year-old Titanium has all of your suggestions for Lotus already standard” so I’m a bit confused why a premium brand like Lotus doesn’t have them yet? Continue travelling well 👍

Stretch Armstrong is the name you were looking for 😅 new to the channel. Great honest review. Watching from Ireland 🇮🇪 currently!!

Best review of the Lotus Trooper caravan I've seen. Thank you for your insight and opinion. Has been very helpful in helping me to look for issues i would not have considered. Really curious how Lotus reacted to your 12 month service review. Hope they take your critique seriously and implement the necessary changes and review QA issues.

Ah the memories!! Miss you guys!

Another great video guys

Always look forward to watching your videos, places you all go to and the way you have your vehicle set up.

Perhaps you should have checked out the playground in Snowtown. Only a 10 min drive away.
