I'm so happy for you mate. From rock bottom to steadily climbing back out, it's great to see you smiling and enjoying life again! Looking forward to some touring and camping videos of Australia's west coast
Thanks mate 👍 it's been a very difficult year for me. I definitely needed something to go right in my life. I'm so excited to head out filming more adventures once it's finally finished. Just need to finish off the 12v then I have my son coming down to spend some time with me so by next month the camping videos will be back to normal and hopefully weekly if everything goes right 👍
The new rig is coming along beautifully! The canopy looks awesome and I know that you'll be putting it to good use! Can't wait to see the finished build and where you take it. Great to see that Cheshire Cat smile still beaming!
Every car really needs a GVM upgrade, 470 kg for canopy setup, maybe another 80kg for the roof top tent, 20 for the awning, jerrry cans full, plus all your accessories, the weights can really add up. But very sexy setup mate, love it 👍
Yeah I'd definitely recommend anyone looking at getting a canopy setup this size to get the gvm upgrade. New cars don't give you a lot to play with from factory so it doesn't take much at all to put you over your gvm
At first I wanted a jack off canopy but once I seen the quality & features that come with this canopy it was an easy choice. I honestly can't fault the quality & it's also an awesome looking canopy with those underside toolboxes sitting so flush 😍👌
For sure mate 👍 unfortunately I haven't tried it yet lol. We only finished filming on the weekend and I'll be spending the next few weekends installing the 12v. Then I've got my son coming down for a week. So I won't be able to test it out until next month unfortunately. But I can't wait 😀
Hey mate, unreal set up! I’m collecting mine in a few weeks and you are the first person I’ve seen go with the gas bottle idea. Do you mind telling me how you’ve mounted it? Cheers mate
Awesome Video mate. She's looking awesome. I think what everyone wants to know is though how much does that set up cost installed if someone was to walk in to MRT and not have a youtube channel
This is why I included the link below. The link allows you to select what type of car you have & build your own canopy the way you want it and get a price right away online with no commitment. Price depends on what you want in your dream canopy build
I have been considering getting one of these chassis mounted canopies. How do U think they will hold up to 4wding, is it compromised because of no tray. Yes they are lighter but is there a cost. Would be really keen to hear Ur thoughts and first hand experience.
I haven't had the opportunity to test them out offroad yet but I will be doing plenty more review videos on it over the next few years. I was concerned about the same thing but I have been reassured they are definitely strong enough. Dan from explore bound has been running his for a while now if you'd like to ask his opinion & also borderland explorers have been travelling Australia with one for the past year & taken it on plenty of tracks so you could also ask for their first hand opinion 👍
Can i get the tray and canopy basic setup and add all the bits and pieces like draw and water tanks later once i get more money. And are the doors strong and not flexible? Also, is it waterproof?

Can't wait too get my setup. And start living my life to the fullest cheers mate for the video very informative.
I'm glad to hear you found it helpful. Goodluck with your build mate 👍

Mate. Looks great. I'm so jealous!! I bet you can't wait to try it out (if you haven't already.........LOL). We'll have to plan a trip soon.
For sure mate 👍 unfortunately I haven't tried it yet lol. We only finished filming on the weekend and I'll be spending the next few weekends installing the 12v. Then I've got my son coming down for a week. So I won't be able to test it out until next month unfortunately. But I can't wait 😀
Great setup. Well done mate
Cheers mate 😀👍
Awesome!
Nice set up mate, your set up is looking smick. Look forward to seeing some awesome WA trips in the future 🤟🤟👌👌
Cheers mate 👍 I've got my son staying with me in a few weeks time but I'll definitely be heading out straight after that 😀
Life doesn’t look so shit now enjoy
Awesome new setup mate 💯👌
Thanks mate 😀👍
That's really nice, I bet she was pricey. Hilux coming along nicely.
Depending on what you want in your setup. The Xseries Chassis Mounted canopy starts from just over 10k
@@Campingdownunder Definitely looks worth while. Can't think of a bloke more deserving than you, hope your going well mate.
Thanks mate 🙏 things are definitely starting to improve
Hey mate, unreal set up! I’m collecting mine in a few weeks and you are the first person I’ve seen go with the gas bottle idea. Do you mind telling me how you’ve mounted it? Cheers mate
Hey mate check out top end campgear. They have a gas bottle holder that you can bolt directly to the canopy
Awesome unit!! This is a smick ute !!!
Have been waiting for this video! So good to see the build progress. Looking forward to seeing some camping videos in the new rig 👌
It's looking so good 😍 I can't wait to get out and start using it all 😀
Good on you mate kicking goals. nice vehicle and canopy…. Looks like you’ve dropped a few kegs aswell good work 🍻🍻
Haha thanks mate 👍🍻
Gotta be happy with that mate looks unreal good to see you smiling 🤙
This is definitely the break I needed. Hopefully things keep improving from here 😀👍
Its definitely a huge upgrade over the old lux
Been waiting for this one 🎉
So have I mate 😂😂😂

This is just a 17 minute MRT advertisement....
MRT are supporting my channel. But I honestly haven't seen a better canopy on the market. I genuinely love this canopy 😍
I haven't seen that many MRT canopies out and about so this was nice to see
They are a reasonably new company still

Check out the link below mate you can start as basic as you want 👍 yes the doors are very strong and it's waterproof
I all ready did i have to wait for the melbourne store to open in October @@Campingdownunder
You can still ring another store & just discuss options until they open 👍
How do i buy one of those pantrys? they arent on the website
Contact your nearest store & they'll be able to help you out 👍
@Campingdownunder yeah they are unreleased atm, do you have the dimensions of the unit?
@bendouglas568 sorry no I don't. But I will be pulling it out again tonight to do a bit more wiring so if I remember I'll measure it for you
What an awesome setup might look into one of for my Navara Warrior. Have you got a total weight of your car with that setup and the rooftop etc?
2.92 ton with the rooftop tent & awning. But that excluded the 12v gear and my belongings
@@Campingdownunder Getting pretty heavy, so you would be well over 3t fully loaded with fuel, water etc? Do you have a GVM upgrade?
@Mr500RWHP yes I have a gvm upgrade & airbags 👍
hey mate what was total cost canopy and everything in it? i have an old mrt canopy im a tradie but looking to update
Mine was over 20k but click the link below to build & price your own canopy. You'll get a quote instantly and they start from just over 10k
Are the new pull out pantries available in store now?
Everything should be available for purchase now. Reach out to your nearest store to confirm 👍
Awsome setup very professional how much
Click on the link in the description & you'll be able to customise your own & get a price straight away 👍
WOW Mate. 1 very nice unit. Question.. What's the rear spring rated at.
I got a gvm upgrade before fitting this. I wouldn't recommend a canopy without one. Especially something this big
