Just found your channel. I'm preping for Simpson Desert next year. Excellent first episode, I'll be watching the rest. Cheers mate, Grant.
This is what overlanding is all about epic episode Greetings from South Africa
Thanks Shaun. Absolutely love watching the overlanding vid from South Africa.
Top video, just a thought, it could be worthwhile upgrading your suspension it's obviously not coping with the weight. Good to see you don't charge at the dunes like an enraged bull, spinning wheels and destroying the track. Thanks good to see on all accounts.
Sitting here in England.. I can only dream of such a trip... strange thing is.. I got my first driving licence in Charleville.. and worked in Quilpie !... but never went farther West. Oneday maybe .. eh ?
The Simpson desert looks absolutely fantastic at the moment I myself are heading out there next week and looking forward to it for me it'll be my fifth crossing of the Simpson desert and I'm champing at the bit to get out there again when you've done it once you just have to keep going back, again and again, thanks for sharing your video I see the next one 😀
Thanks Ed’s. It was an awesome trip. Your right, I’ll be doing another.
I worked out West around the Diamantina Lakes area and all around that way in the late 70s. We got big rain out there one year and couldn't work the area for weeks. But wow! The change that comes over the country when it gets a decent rain!
Nice to see someone who doesn't need to take on each dune at Mach 3 just to get over.
The Simpson is looking fantastic good weather aswell hope it all goes smoothly for you
Enjoyed you vid. Subscribed and looking forward to the next instalment
Professional vid, glad that you were ok with the flood. We did have good time last July except the fuel leak. We didn't see many animals, camels or birds.
Thanks GWU. Glad you liked it. Hopefully the fuel leak was minor
Thank you for sharing Looks amazing country. Love following you guys 👏👏👍👍
Great video really enjoyed it. Maybe after the series you could do a video on things you liked / disliked / any car issues and things to consider
Thanks for a very helpful vid. Which reverse camera are you using please? I see it clips over the original mirror.
Thanks for sharing
Cheers
Mick
The Dmax has its standard reverse camera and the aftermarket one on the mirror is branded Safety Dave. It’s very good.
@@CanopyCampingAustralia great thanks. I've seen his products and was wondering what the quality is like.
Might check them out.👍
Great video mate what tyre pressures where you running ?
It varies for different parts of the desert/trip. The dunes it was 17 psi (hot) front and 25 (hot) rear.
$50 per steak is not supporting the locals, Thats called getting ripped off by the locals.
Disagree. Your a long way from anywhere and the locals go 3 or 4 months in the hot part of the year where they see almost no one.
This looks a lot like a video that ASPW would have shot. Andrew's videos are a bit more artistic ("better") my loyalty remains with 4xOverland.
Made us add that trip to our bucket list New Tommy is on order
