I think this style of travel is what has been missing since Leyland Brothers days. So original , with no advertising (other than the odd self promo which is very informative). Personalities that aren't rehearsed or trying to be anything. Keep it coming. Thank you ✔️🏆
Thankyou very much! We really appreciate your comment. It is very complimentary. We have a new series coming very soon and your words have given us new motivation...
Love watching your travels, you make it look easy. We should paint our cars in camouflage, you wouldn’t notice the mud and sludge as you do on a nice black paint job. Two pairs of shoes needed, rubber boots (Merry Boots) place in a bag and wash when your able, second pair for driving, clean mats, clean car. Your dad sounds like a nice character, he doesn’t sound 80 years either.
Thanks for your comment. The double shoes is a great idea! Nick's dad is a real character. We are editing the next episode at the moment and he will be in it, Thanks for watching.
Best Odnadata track I've seen yet.
Thanks
Guys
Thank you so much for your kind words! We really appreciate your feedback and are glad you enjoyed this episode!
It was part of the train brakes system. It in the triple valve for the wagon's brakes. And the piece in your hand is an expansion bowl , it's use was to give a more positive brakes application, so if the driver only made a light application then this bowl would give more air reduction, thus applying the brake harder 😉. Sorry for the long winded story . But you did ask 😅
That is fantastic! Thankful for sharing this information. I'm sure our viewers will be impressed with your knowledge and grateful for sharing that.
Great video guys thanks for sharing I followed the same route just a couple of weeks ago
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled that you found the video helpful and that you followed the same route. Your support means a lot!
Another excellent video. Please keep em coming
I'm glad you enjoyed it! We have more exciting content on the way, so stay tuned!
You two make travel look so easy,
Sorely you would need long range fuel tanks, etc,
that you for sharing your travels
Thanks for your comment! We definitely put in a lot of planning to make our travels smooth and enjoyable. A long range fuel tank would have been ideal.
Nice little series…. But seriously…. Nick… it’s time for you to sport the number 3 haircut, … 😂😂
Thanks for your comment. He is so precious about his hair... I'm starting to accept it!! Thanks for watching, Heidi.
Love the video but that’s a series 1 Land Rover! Not a defender, you offend us poms!
Great video wish I could get one of your caravans here in the uk!
Oops, sorry!!, Nick loves British cars, thanks for the information. We are glad you enjoyed the episode...
Hi Guys, cant believe the tyre pressures you are airing down too !
pressure's you suggest seem super high above normal pressures ?????
Yes, we agree and thought the same.! Toyo advised that low pressures are based on weight, speed, tyre size and tyre ply. Thanks for watching.
Valves caps not only taste bad from mud, but think about where dogs love to leave their mark…. Best not to put them in your mouth!
Another great video showcasing the Vans mate!
Can I ask what the calculation/methodology toyo had recommended you for tyre pressures ie 3100kg over the axles of the van so almost divided by 10 gives you 30psi a pound per square inch per 100kg kinda thing?
We did ask the same question and there's a bit of science to it. Other factors are the tire size, side wall profile, construction of the tyre and speed. The tyres on the Chev were 3 ply, meaning a stronger side wall and therefore we couldn't let them down as much as a 2 ply due to friction which would cause heat. We go into more detail on this in our upcoming episodes. Thanks for your comment and watching!
I bought the Y62 off you guys and attempted to buy the Silverado too. Is it already sold?
We remember selling the Y62, do you still have it? Yes, the Chev is available for sale, our next TH-cam car is being built now...
What happened to the GR Toyota??
We change our vehicles over regularly. We used the GR in many episodes including Cape York, Gibb River Road and Silverton. We have more vehicles coming up soon. The kept the GR for 2 years which is the longest we ever had a vehicle! It was time for fresh vehicles!!
