@@samlandorf2338 thanks mate. I appreciate you taking the time to tell me.

That’s a terrible experience indeed. I’m surprised they didn’t replace it for you. Did you buy it from Jaycar or RTM? They are usually great to deal with. From my experience anyway. I upgraded this fridge to a Brass monkey upright fridge and that’s been working pretty well too. Maybe I’ve been lucky. If it’s still under warranty, you should try and get it replaced.

Cheers mate. 🤙

@@EFFICIENTSELF thanks mate. I think it was one of your old videos that made me realise that they are worth looking into in the first place. We are good and I hope you are too mate.

@@jackturtle131 thanks mate. Appreciate the comment.

@@scoooooty it has a setting for lithium so I’m guessing it should do the job. Might have to dig a bit deeper into that one. Thanks mate.

@@nanddayal6836 that’s the plan.

@@ArgonsGas thanks mate. I have already put some conduit on the cable. Will show that when I do the shunt install. Is the Bluetooth only one IP rated one you’re talking about. Or is there another?

@@AdventuringPals Yeah I belive so though it's a bit confusing, if you don't just want to use the bluetooth it looks like you can add the screen seperatly but many places sell the screen and normal shunt as a combo. I've installed the kings shunt on a mates system in a canopy and i've installed the simarine system in my campertrailer.

@@ArgonsGas I think I’ll just the Bluetooth one in the caravan and save the extra cabling. Might get the Kings one for the canopy as it’s only half the price and that way I can compare them too.

@@lyndoncarter1528 yeah they can be. That should keep you going for a while now. Thanks for watching.

@@grahamwhittaker8844 👍😁🙏

@@grahamwhittaker8844 hope you’re well mate. Thanks for watching.

@ All good thanks mate 👍👍. We had a big gum tree come down and destroyed our caravan and Navara,just missed the bride by no more than half a metre,I was standing the other side of the truck with smaller branches all around me. Both of us came away without a scratch 🙏all though Charlie 🐕‍🦺was in the truck 😂😂he took off an hide under a bus parked about fifty meters away, I’ve got a feeling he might take a while to trust me again. We went to Bathurst and brought a used New Age 22’ 2022 double bunker for 72K ,for all intention purposes you’d think it was brand new, they couldn’t of used it much at all 👍👍they reckon they wouldn’t of travelled anymore than 20k kilometres. We have to wait for the insurance to assess for payouts but the van is a definite write off, I just hope the Nav is as well or we could be waiting for months for it to be fixed 😇🤞🤞they probably won’t even start working on it until February next year. I was thinking about a new Isuzu crewcab truck or maybe a Toyota 70 series twin cab 😂😂 but the bride has other ideas, we took a new Y62 patrol for a test drive In Dubbo and she hasn’t stopped talking about it ever since. You know what it’s like mate,ya gotta keep the bride happy. Just waiting on insurance to make a decision now,probably at least a couple of more weeks yet , all’s good though,we have family and a tribe of grandkids to entertain us and a new van to kit out 👍👍❤️🙏.

@ wow mate. How incredibly scary. So glad to hear you guys are all ok. Hopefully the insurance does the right thing. Those Y62 are a pretty nice unit. Probably be my pick too if I was to go into a wagon. At least it sounds like you’re into a good van. Best of luck with everything mate and thanks for sharing.

@@NasTimeAdventures yeah mate. It’s a nice and easy way to see the reef. Hope you get there soon.

@@nanddayal6836 thanks. Sorry. We were a bit too busy enjoying g the reef and not much videoing.

@@missyed77 thanks you. It was a great day out.

@@Hitman-ds1ei they will still be there regardless. At least they might have an option of a tow vehicle thats capable and designed to do so.

@@colinsimmons2913 thanks mate. Sounds like I’ll need all the luck.

@@-PORK-CHOP- thanks mate. I appreciate your kind words.

@@felixxr6turbo spot on mate. I hope this is what it’s like.

@@stephenrogers9664 haha yup. Nothing like kids to remind you how old you are aye.

@@stephenrogers9664 I can see why lol.

@@stephenrogers9664 thanks mate. I felt the same. If it’s priced well and made reliable, then I don’t see why you would go with any other ute for a proper work or touring rig.

@@dousty how do you mean?

@@paulthompson8480 I’m hoping they stick with the v6 diesel and it’s reasonably priced. The f150 isn’t too bad and thats after a conversation to right hand drive which the ranger won’t need doing. If it’s based on a low spec trim like XLT that should be achievable. But like you said. We’ll have to wait and see.

I thought the f150 was rhd built as it was a USPS vehicle so they deliver from that side of the vehicle?

@ that was the case for the old f trucks. But not the new ones as far I know.

Yes, I feel the same way but at least the ranger has a 3l v6, which is probably biggest offering of all the mid size utes now that the v8 cruiser is no longer an option. I also feel that all the extra emissions restrictions are also to blame for the ongoing engine problems.

@@kajak012 hi mate. No, I’m not a fifo. Although I wish I would have gotten into when I was younger. I’m just a tradie, but now we are on the road traveling with our kids and the wife is picking up locum work while I home school the kids.

@@AdventuringPals your trade is? i might have to change my trade!

@ sparky, but don’t hold that against me lol.

@@AdventuringPals great trade sir

@ done me well so far.

@@johnmathisen1167 yes will be interesting to see the final product as it’s sold.

@@RustyCandyAdventures hey mate. I’ll look into that. I just think it will be great to have a big gvm from the manufacturer with the factory warranty backing. For whatever that’s worth, as I haven’t yet needed to claim anything with ford yet so not sure how they handle it.

@AdventuringPals is it about the adventure or the comfort. Reinsurance about the children, keeping up with the jones. Or is it better the adventure. Letting the children to have their camp, going to them remote places. It's the same view with the top rig as a tent. Is it the father that does things with the children. Towing big means bigger problems. The tight tracks. The weight. The soft sand or mud. Being a medium off roader like these dual cabs or getting a real off roader. Like an oca, Isuzu truck. Or a big ass off roader. Not worrying about scratching the paint. Knowing the drive line can get you there. Me and my selection i would be tyler last build with my camper. And spending the rest of the money on an adventure. And when it breaks, not worrying about a 2nd person hoping they are going to fix it. There all shifty, that what this country become. Have you seen sailing la vagabonds. Or ghost town living or beau miles. Going overland and many more. I know this text is a bit. But keep it simple. Be rugged, go for the adventure. Be able to fix it. Be like Malcolm Douglas. The camp man. Show your family you can fall down and pick yourself up. Do not trust in salesmen and companies. Trust in yourself. You have a better life.

@AdventuringPals ruclips.net/video/ZwR7M0VcC98/видео.htmlsi=csD17z0zerzu0me6 you do not aways need the best. Now, this couple is setting up to see the world.

@@RustyCandyAdventures well for me personally it’s all about getting out there comfortable and safely with a reliable setup. I would just like to be able to take what I want and that’s where the big gvm is appealing to me. I also use my ute as a work ute when we are at home too , so it’s a double win for me. I don’t really need to tow big as our caravan is 2700 atm and we don’t really tow off road except on dirt roads. I like getting new vehicles just to avoid buying someone else’s problem that I have to fix and getting a factory warranty is a peace of mind. I was just as happy, maybe even happier when we started travelling with the fam in our under $40k setup, ute and van. But sadly things broke down over time and had to be replaced along the way and our wants and needs change as the kids get older too.

@@BTBSean0 I really can’t see it being that expensive, but I guess you never know. I’m hoping it will be under $100k maybe even cheaper. Thanks for the input mate. I appreciate it.

@@AdventuringPals Id be saving your pennies mate . it will be into that price range

@@BTBSean0 I suppose if the main target is fleet sales then they could probably charge whatever they want.

Definitely under 100k. Can’t out price the f150. It’s basically a parts bin car. Take a xlt + 15k of suspension. I’d say 90-100.

Haha. Thanks, I’ll get cracking on with a few more.

😂 enjoy the grandkids mate. Ranger is working well so far, hopefully stays that way lol.

Thanks mate. Much appreciated.

Thanks mate. You had better. Could start with showing us the new boat setup.

@@NasTimeAdventures at least they will be clean lol.

@@bomfunk69420 you’re welcome, and thanks for the feedback, it greatly appreciated.

@@4x4vanintow48 thanks Tanya and Jason. Yes time is always a limitation, always wish there was more it. We live the Buckeroonie shirts. Need more of em lol.

@@grahamwhittaker8844 thanks for the tip mate. I’ll have to get some coke and try that with him. Might be a good experiment for home schooling too.

@@gordonbarker5844 haha. Thanks mate. Although that’s not a hard one to beat aye lol.

@@AdventuringPals where's the laughing button 🙂

@@lyndoncarter1528 thanks mate. As always, appreciate your comments.

@@scoooooty yeah mate. Thats the plan. I have a 200ah lithium in ute and I love it.

@@tugboat8475 hi mate. I swapped tis fridge out for a brass monkey upright one a while ago now. The old one doesn’t work anymore and I didn’t bother trying to fix it as I didn’t need it. I’m happy with how it performed for as long as it did for the price I paid.

Thanks mate. The wife picks up locum contracts in the medical imaging field, and I make a little extra doing a bit of writing for a travel magazine as well whatever minuscule amount RUclips pay us.

I am still working on it!

Nice one. Hope you enjoy it.

Hi mate. Welcome to the channel. I was hoping for the same with the engineering but unfortunately I’ve been told I need a bit of work and reinforcements only to gain 100kgs extra on the ATM only so I’m contemplating if it’s worth the cost for the minimal gain.

@@AdventuringPals Oh bad luck mate, we live and learn maybe the next van will be a better fit. Enjoy the journey all the best.

@@Sabumnim666 all good mate. The van is great and we can manage with the standard payload but I always just see what I extra I can get for just in case.
