would you plz let me from where you hired it and of what cost in Morocco

I drive a hybrid. While I knew I had to get special tires, I never knew why. Thanks, now I know and understand the method behind the proverbial madness.

Excellent video, as always Chris. I originally had Goodyear Wranglers though I was consistently getting punctures on our "Thorny River" project (Thorny aptly named due to the variety of different thorn trees). I changed to BFG's and managed c.80,000km on a set. This was on my Prado with a combination of towing and not towing and with much of the time spent in the bush and long distance driving. I have yet to see how long the BFG's will last on my "heavy" Hilux, but will bear this video in mind as and when I need to change. If I look at the type of tyres my work colleagues use, then most still use BFG's but many have changed to General Grabbers as they seem to be able to survive the tough exploration terrain similar to the (old?) BFG's.

Hi .. I was a geologist in mining then went into tourism and worked in Serengeti as a camp manager 👍

I very much like your philosophy and your relaxed and informative presentation Chris. I would indeed appreciate your advice and guidance but I notice that you tend not to answer the questions that people pose on this platform. If you acknowledge this comment in a positive way, I'd certainly like to exchange some thoughts with you.

Hoe ver is die verste wat mens tussen brandstof pompie moet gaan? Ons bakkie is petrol

神よ、この地に緑をお授け下さい‼️

Chris asseblief. Ek benodig hulp of tenminste méér raad ivm dié tiepe sisteem, in 'n droë area van ons land asseblief. Hoe kan ek kontant maak met jou óf iémand wat advies kan gee óf kan help. Baie dankie.

Geseënde dag Chris. Asseblief hoe kan ek kontant maak ivm dié water sisteem. Ons het hulp nodig met dit in Weskus Area. Asseblief. Báie dankie.

Goed om van jou te hoor, Chris! Voorspoed en sterkte! 🐾

Any chance of a 2025 Zim tour Chris?

Looking foward to touring with you!

Hello Chris. That is (was) my green cruiser you showed briefly just after the lookout point. That descent was was my seventh trip down Van Zyls. Five trips in well prepared Hilux Double Cabs, and one in a VW Syncro which did very well. That green cruiser was also very well set up for overlanding but I had just had a front diff locker fitted. I had it engaged for an earlier climb but failed to disengage it for that steep drop. When it was time to steer hard left into the drop the steering resisted because of the locker. It was too late to try and stop and over she went, completely blocking the pass. I couldn't find the right geometry and anchor points to winch it upright again. So it was back up the pass in my son's Hilux to get assistance. Within 24 hours the Cruiser had been completely stripped and everything carried away on donkeys - engine, gearbox, roof tent, fridge, two stainless water tanks, all the wheels, camping kit - the lot. Big loss. I won't make that mistake again. Roger

Hi. Very informative. Is there any fire issues?

I did the same and suddenly no one contacted me and said I was blocking them out of their life... As if there is no other means of messaging... SMS still exists, but this system also are driven by g-o-o-g-l

Margie says she would have a heart attack. Very wary of ellies having been chased in Hwange many years ago.

Well handled Chris!

Wonderlik! 🐘👏🏼👏🏼

How do you rate 265/60R18 a year later?

Do you know if it is possible to flip the lid on the 60L legacy to be end-opening like the 50L? I see in the manuals it says it isn't possible but can't see a reason why not?

H I see it is for 2024😂.

Hi Chris, are you planing this for next year again?

Hi Chris, thanks for your video and chanel. It was good to see you again albeit on RUclips.

What does camping in the Serengeti cost? Looks like a great trip, well done.

Hello Chris, nice to see your work! Regards, Craig Martens

Kalahari would be great

I have a NL green box (25A) . And where I live I have very limited access to AGM batteries. I’m currently looking for the largest battery available that will fit in this unit? According to the spec sheet: * Max battery size : 325mm x 180mm x 280mm (L x W x H) * I’ve read in couple of posts on 4x4 community that some NL green box owners were able to fit up to 342 x 173 x 220mm (W x D x H) and 330 x 175 x 195mm (W x D x H) Can you please help to confirming what is actual max I can go in the NL green box in terms of LxWxH Many thanks for any input.

Learned something. Thank you for taking the time

ᑭᖇOᗰOᔕᗰ 😩

Hi Chris, if we want to use the DC25 box with lithium battery inside the house, how would you recommend we go about charging the battery since solar and a main battery isn't an option for input?

salut,Enjoyed~ you shared awesome channel.

How would I set up a grey water system off grid to reuse the water in laundry and the toilet

Fantasties! Dankie Chris.

So true, we have become more consumers than producers.

If you are building a (4) 3.2v cell LiFePO battery with a 4s BMS, does the BMS go on the load side of the shunt?

I hope you’ll really have a lovely safe trip

Hi. Nice explanation. Do you know if it comes with a shore power input plug? I have seen that it comes with a battery charger plug, but I'm not sure if you can plug the camping shore power cable straight to the green box. Thank you.

I agree with what you say and am putting in a reclamation and grey water system myself. Yet, we need our phones, video cameras, and computers to produce videos for RUclips in order to preach against consumerism. So I think we all are part of the problem. And I would add that there are great human rights abuses because of consumerism and great wealth disparities that are destroying others lives.

Looks amazing. Maybe one day. Thank you.

Thank you, Chris, that was very informative and educational, I really enjoyed your calm guidance and explanations. Crossing the van Zyl's Pass is on our plan, however I still wonder if it is doable by a Freelander 2? What do you reckon?

Hello Chris! Can you tell me of what consists your filter box for the large particles? I want to replicate this and that is how I found your video. Greetings from Paraguay.

That was really taking a chance Chris but as you survived to tell the tale it will make a good camp fire story for a long time to come.!!

Hi Chris, thank you for the info. I watched this video almost a year ago. No doubt about the benefits of LiFePO4 and 1 year later, costs have reduced by some margin. I bought a Blue Nova BN13V-108-1.4k with Blue Tooth technology yesterday at a cost of R8,800 (R2.69/kWh). The standard BN13V-108-1.4k battery can now be bought for as low as R7,695 (R2.29/kWh). Yes, initial capital investment still higher, but the business and real life use case is stronger than ever.

Great video, I recommend a better cost-effective choice KG140F, which also has a Bluetooth control function and a 2.4-inch color screen display.

Soe, hierdie is wonderlik! ‘A experience of a lifetime’! Dankie vir die deel. Mooi loop, Chris! 🐾

That was a great (and possibly terrifying) Morning Coffee tale Chris. I was fortunate enough to once go on a park drive (at De Wildt) with a guide that loved the African Wild Dog, and he shared his knowledge about them with us. Things like where they 'relieve' themselves and why, how the family dynamic works, to the manner of their hunt and chase, to the cornering and ganged-up approach to their prey, and the reason for the hype and method of kill. He was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about these animals that these 'ugly' endangered animals also found a way into my heart. SPOILER ALERT I'm glad you made it out of that encounter safely.

Wow Chris! What amazing experiences! Reminds me of the wild dog sighting at Simatella, hyena experience at Senyati with you and who could forget our lion experience in Hwange! Always some excitement!

Amazing experience Chris, and please stay safe!

more info from NL. The NL5 is perfectly suited for charging LiFePO4 batteries in the normal car mode. In this mode the output voltage is set to 14.4V, which is the preferred voltage for most LiFePO4 batteries. Furthermore, just about all LiFePO4 batteries have an internal control circuit (BMS) built into the battery. Its purpose is to protect the battery from damaging conditions, such as voltage that is too high. It will also stop charge when the cells are full. The charger will continue to supply a voltage so that any connected loads (such as a fridge or lights) will be powered by the charger (or Power Pack) without discharging the battery.
