Another great vid. Interesting to see all the space saving ideas! Happy travels
Cheers mate!
Looking good, Cam! Can't wait to see what you do and don't like about it. Gave me some good ideas for my Isuzu MUX/Rodeo. Have fun on your trip!
Cheers mate! 👍🏼
Bushman’s fridge are really popular
Great episode, heaps of good info and new ideas, cheers
Cheers mate 👍🏼
Awesome idea for the fridge....I'll be ordering mine asap. Keen to see what you've come up with for the van. Keep up the great work
Appreciate the support mate 🙏
I am impressed Cam, your done an awesome job on the back of the 300 mate👍
Cheers mate! We are stoked with it 👍🏼
Saturday morning jobs are done and the coffee is made. I always look forward to and enjoy seeing a new WT episode. Also keen to hear about the step change in channel followers after your Insta teaser :)
Cheers mate!
Re the subs, nah not really keen on the drama and don’t want to encourage this goose to waste more money on it 🤪
Just want to crack on making vids and planning trips 🍻 👍🏼
I can relate Cam….the bigger the handbag the more crap I take! 😂😂😂just ask Tiff!
You’ve done well downsizing 🎉
haha Tiff must have the heavy rigid truck version of a handbag then, because she sure can load it up with crap too 🤣
Nice job. Love your content. Very relatable 👏 I’d love a bigger fridge mount caddy for my 115L bushman upright
Love the canvas products guys! 🍻👍
Cheers mate!
As other have said, you've got a great well thought out, simple and effective use of all your space. As for the fridge front storage pocket, definitely the (cough) kings 30 ltr draw fridge would be a good addition to off. Albeit my version is a Kickass model. Cam and Tiff keep up the good work. 👍
Definitely looking into it!! Cheers 😊
Love your set up! We have gone even more flexible, but we werent starting from a canopy so wont miss the space.
Thanks 😊
You just have to work with what you’ve got hey! We’re so lucky In Australia that there is heaps of clever compact camping gear to choose from.
Great set up mate. Certainly been able to fit a lot in. It doesn’t look like things are crammed in and you have to take everything out to get to something.
Cheers mate, seems to all work pretty well 👍🏼
I would love to see an engel 60ltr Velcro pocket mayb one day guys, great idea
Thanks for the plug Cam. Great setup! 🍻Mark
Cheers Mark!
I know I’ve said it before but the wagon really suits you man. It’s looking great.
Cheers Matty, loving to mate 🥳
Good idea of utilising the space under the front seats, that where I'll keep my lithium jump starter.
Cheers mate, yeah it’s surprising how much you can fit under them!
I had 2 x stainless steel tanks designed and fitted to the underside of my 105 series, between the side steps and the chassis rail. 20L each fully plumbed with inlets and breathers up under the hood. John Guest fittings, internal baffles etc.
Absolutely love it.
That’s the go! Would love something like that, it’s pretty tight under the 300, but I’ll see hoe much room there is after the long range tank goes inS
@WildTouring amazing what these fabricators can do and the shapes they can bend stainless steel into. I've got a pretty tight fit under there too, and my only request was that it didn't hang any further than the chassis. They did an awesome job, and the quality of work has stood the test of time. Last thing I needed was to be losing water on a long remote trip.
Like the idea of storage pockets on the front of drawer fridge, gonna try something similar on the front of my drawers for quick grab items
Few companies out there doing Velcro storage pods suitable for that sort of application 👍🏼
THANK YOU FOR VIDEO
Cheers mate 🙏
Could hear you just fine Tiff, Cam you can't say people can't hear Tiff and then ask her a question 🤣🤣... setup looks mint
Hahaha my bad 🤦♂️ cheers mate! 🍻
Another good practical info vid. I love you practical and sometimes ingenious approach to your gear/vehicle. I was wondering how you went with the storage in the wagon coming from your canopy.
I've been considering making a similar vehicle change, and I have been eyeing off the Kaon gear to see if it would work for me. Now I have seen its worth first hand. Thanks Cam, and Tiff. Keep up the good work.
Keen to hear back on the Drifta bladder. Mixed reviews online around the taste. I’ve been looking at one for the exact same reason - boys trips and backfill the camper on family trips.
Definitely does taste very plasticy at the moment. Will see how it goes when it’s been flushed out a few times.
Good vid team
Cheers mate 🍻
Mate i have been taking lately paper plates/bowls and bamboo cutlery. Saves water, and easy as saves washing up sometimes
Yeah a few of the boys do that on trips, it’s a good idea- especially in camp fire season 👍🏼
Shit for environment though yea.
Another great episode mate, it's given me heaps of ideas. Now to let the missus know how much money I need to buy some more merch.
🤣 cheers Dawsey! 🙏
Love the Evakool organizer Cam, was always jealous there was nothing for the drawer fridge when you see the upright fridges all sporting them. Have just placed an order for one now 👌👌
Cheers mate, really appreciate the support! 👍🏼
Go tiff lol😂 . Great advice as usual guys.
Haha cheers mate!
Nice work! The camera copes really well in low light.
Cheers mate! Haha yeah had to specifically buy a lens for my mirrorless for stuff like this. I’m not much of a camera guy, quite happy to run and gun with a GoPro- but they’re terrible in low light!
Credit to you for making it work the way it suits you, well done. I’ve gone the opposite to you, from a wagon to a ute and canopy. I have to say, NO WAY WOULD I GO BACK TO A WAGON!! , complete pain in the arse getting to things. 😀
The space I now have and the convenience of putting things where you can get to them without shifting a ton of stuff is worth anything.Did my head in setting up every night.
Great video mate. 👍
PS. I drink tea while away … good coffee is a hassle to make. 😀
Yeah fair enough! Different strokes for different folks. I honestly thought I’d miss the canopy more, but maybe it’s just the honey moon phase with the new car 🤣 🤷♂️
Fantastic rig setup! Keen to know how the bladder holds up in your travels mate
Cheers mate, hopefully no leaks 😬
Also keen on the organiser for a kings fridge please Cam. Just moved to albany so building a bit of a setup to get out and about down here, so the vid came in handy.
Looking into it now 👍🏼 cheers mate!
Great video and good tips.
Check out the Nuwave Induction cookers. They come in different sizes and u can adjust what watts u cook on. Best one we have found for travelling (got two 😂). 👍
Cheers mate, will check it out!
Hi Cam, good video. Here's an idea for storage get a set of gullwing rear windows (when they come out for the 300) and you can utilise the space between the windows and the kaon window shelves.
Regards Alan.
Gday Alan, yeah I’ve been thinking the same thing! Will definitely have a look at them when they’re available. 👍🏼
Alot of the 30L draw fridges are the same size and shape front, would definitely buy one for my kings 30L
Cheers mate, looking into making something for them now!
Yep I'll buy one for the kings draw fridge, great idea
Cool great setup! I’ve just sold my 100 series wagon and going back to dual cab life. But always love seeing others set ups. How good is the kaon gear. Was sad to see that go with the car. I actually kept the divider to go in my camp trailer as a barrier to stop stuff falling on my fridge as it was a perfect fit. I used 4 Kings canvas bags across the top, hated them coz they are floppy and used to get caught on the edge of the shelf. Need to get myself one of those mozfogs. The decor spray bottles are awesome I’ve got one for home and one for camping, been using them since back in the day when they used to have a plastic liner. I’ve got an Oztrail drawer fridge, 20L. The fridge bag looks awesome, great job!
Cheers 😊
The kaon gear is brilliant! And yes I know what you mean, if the bags arnt rigid enough then they are a pain in the ass to get out!!
Hi Cam, Nieldy here really impressed with what you are doing keep it up mate
Hey Nieldy, good to hear from you mate! Appreciate the support mate, hope you’re well!
going well starting to get out camping more now so all the help I can get better@@WildTouring
Awesome mate! I would love to 3d print you insert to fit the drawers better and neater if you would like
Cheers mate, very kind offer! May take you up on that one day, would be good to have a beer and a yarn sometime anyway! 👍🏼
@@WildTouring mate anytime, i will need to take a photo of my 3D printed organiser and let you see. An yes mate i would love to just catch up for a drink and take mate! love the channel and keep up the awesome work
I used to have long lists of the stuff I would take and it would take me hours to find, sort and stow it all.
I've now got individual Wolf Pack boxes that I use for packing things that are used together. I have a kitchen, recovery gear, food, tools etc that stay packed and can be chucked in or out very easily as I don't want them living in the vehicle the whole time.
I have individual lists for each box so it's very easy to check and restock/replace whatever I need to at the end of a trip.
It does mean having extras of everything but it's easy to check things that I have been using at home and putting them back before I go.
I'm guessing that I can put 80% of the stuff I take in the vehicle in a few minutes now instead of taking hours.
The boxes also stack really solidly so they can be used as a bit of a table when cooking or as a bedside table in the tent.
My setup works very well for being away for a week or so but way too much for a night or two for one person.
That organizer looks really good.
Could you make them in a range of standard sizes as they could be stuck to an esky or whatever as well?
I guess "standard" is a relative term as well though.
Nice well thought out setup imo guys.
Plenty of experience and thought gone into it all.
I like the Wolfpack storage box idea, and will be adopting a version of what you’re doing for my own setup.
I’ll look into making generic sized organisers. I’m working out interest at the moment to see what there is a market for bringing out next. I’ve actually got a mate attaching one of these Evakool ones to the side of his chest fridge so that he can access it when the fridge is slid out.
Appreciate the suggestions 👍🏼
@@WildTouring No worries as I've got plenty of ideas from others.
I had a look at your website but couldn't see the organisers so I will keep an eye out.
I'm thinking of making a board to go on top of the Wolf Pack boxes that has battens underneath as a sort of table top.
Make it out of marine ply or something so that it's light, strong and could even be used as a cutting board if treated properly.
Any free bench space is usually a good thing when cooking imo.
Nice setup there Cam! You should look at an organiser for the bushman style fridge. I remember you had something for your old setup. I'd get one for my 85L upright for sure
Yeah I did one years ago, I think I missed the timing on that one. Pictures got shared around all over the internet and half a dozen companies started churning them out before I had a chance to get onto it!
@@WildTouring that's a bit shitty mate! I had a bit of a look around after I commented and found there are only the ones to suit the bushman fridge. I have the king's 85L upright with the handle in the middle. It's exactly the same as a bushman apart from the handle being in the middle. Same motor same almost everything else except the king's is a digital temp control. I reckon they would come out of the same factory for sure. But king's are $600 on special which made it a no brainer. 5 yr warranty as well as opposed to Bushman's 1 or 2 yrs.There must be heaps of the king's out there by now so might be worth a look and see if you can get one made at a decent price. Even just making a slightly shorter length then it would suit them all. I drink Cooper's pale ale btw 😜🤣😎👍
@@4x4isfun24 haha Coopers, got it 😉 🤣 cheers mate will definitely look into it 👍🏼
Hey cam the 20lt on tap water jerry can with built in pump and hose are amazing
They do look good! Just wasn’t too keen on the cig plug. Shame they don’t do a built in battery pack or something!
I thought the same but cant fault after 12 months we live in Kalbarri and are at the beach most days use it to shower after a swim also we have the black edition if you leav it in the sun for a bit you don’t have to worry about boiling water for a warm shower 👌
That intro. GQ magazines sexiest man of the year is calling 😂😂
Honestly disappointed this is the only comment of this nature 🤣 🤣 🤣
Could look into some ally angle/edging to keep the rubber matting edge down, just a thought
Yeap, good idea 👍🏼
Great video Cam and Tiff. Ive been keen to find out about the new fridge organiser, its such a great idea. Im wanting to setup my 100 series to maximise the rear cargo area and the 300’s build videos inspired me to do the same layout. Would there be a chance you would do the organiser for a kings 30l drawer fridge too?
Cheers mate! Definitely looking at making them for the kings drawers and the Engel drawer 👍🏼
An organiser for the 30L kings draw fridge would be good.
Working on it!
Very good setup. Certainly has given me some ideas. Would your organiser on front of draw fridge work on the front of an upright fridge? What is the height and width?
Cheers mate! They are 55cm wide/ 24cm high.
Probably two wide for an upright- I’m looking at offering upright fridge organisers in the future, there is a few others people selling them already though 👍🏼
Make one for the Kings, it's popular and a few are based off it.
Definitely looking into it 👍🏼
Hmmm, that Mozfog looks interesting but I wonder if you could do the same sort of thing with an ordinary USB powered diffuser with some oil that usually repels mozzies such as lemon grass etc? Your wife asks you to do something and you say 'I may do that', I can see your hubby 'L' plates haven't been taken down yet LOL.
I reckon you could, dare say the insecticide would more effective though.
Hahaha yeah that was a risky move now that you mention it 🤣
Hey Cam. Great job on the fit out in the back. Just one side note. Are you aware of the product recall on those hardkorr U lites? they say to stop using them as they can cause a fire. i have had to send mine back to hardkorr
Yeah I saw that! Mine wasn’t affected in the recall, bit of a hassle for those affected. Awesome lights though!
finally bit the bullet and brought the thermacell after originally seeing it on your video ages ago. Does the mozfog work better?
It’s early days, I doubt it’s any better- probably just as good 🤷♂️ I do like that you can control the flow of fog and dosage of insecticide if it was really thick with mozzies though.
What was the size of the AOS bag you used for your KAON shelf
Really good video
I enjoyed it more than I was expecting
Cheers mate! These were the AOS bags;
aosswagsandbags.com.au/products/copy-of-aos-canvas-4wd-cargo-storage-drawer-bag-with-clear-top-17cm-tall
Awesome packing job, can you swing away the divider away to the roof instead of removing?
Enjoy your trip, looking forward to the trip video
No, but that would be a great idea!!!
I wonder if you could do an organiser to attach to Titan drawers?
😉 looking into it!!
Hey Cam n Tiff like the fridge organiser, I suspect yours would fit a kings drawer fridge?
This one’s a little to wide to fit the Kings drawers. But I’m looking into making something for them soon 👍🏼
Great video, what was the name of the mozzie zapper
Mozfog, works well 👍🏼
Great setup Cam and Tiff.
Unsure if you've addressed this before, but is there a reason why you've steered clear of a roof top tent?
Wondering if being a bit tighter on space has made you revisit it as an option?
Cheers mate! I’ve had one years ago, and I do like that they free up room in the vehicle. But we have fairly large power requirements so I’m prioritising that room for solar 👍🏼
Having said that, I’m aware of a very cool new rooftop tent coming to market soon that has got me reconsidering 🤣 🤐
Cam, those fridge organiser things..... whats the chances of making one for a 40lt engel? Not a drawer fridge
Hi Cam enjoying the episodes, just a question, we also have a LC300 with the same GVM upgrade as yourself, you mentioned you brought a new jack? it never occurred to me that the supplied one would be inadequate, may I ask what type of jack you ended up getting? Cheers Les & Denise
Cheers guys! Can’t remember exactly which one I have. But it’s either a 4t or 6t bottle jack from repco or super cheap with a 3 piece handle.
Hey cam. Fridge organizer looks great. I was tempted by the evakool drawer but read that drawer fridges suffer on rough stuff and the drawer bouncing back and forth breaks the seal and lets cold air out (especially north/south installs). How’s your experience been with it. Would you make similar organizers for ends of chest fridges?
Havnt come across that before, ran these same drawer fridges for years in the Dmax too. Potentially will do chest fridge organisers in the future, just gathering interest at the moment to see what to bring out next. What brand and size chest fridge do you have?
@@WildTouringwould be keen for a chest fridge, National Luna...?
A bit confused. Everyone is different but why go from a ite with a canopy to a wagon with hardly any payload. I understand more power but I'm thinking if I needed more power I would go up to a diesel V6 and keep the versatility of a canopy.
P.,S kings draw fridge and stand up fridge organizers I would be in board for one each.
It’s not quite that simple. Did an in depth video on why I chose the 300 over other vehicles (including mid size utes like the one I sold) a while back. Honestly, there was lots of reasons.
But if you’re just focusing on payload alone;
The Dmax with a GVM upgrade had a payload of 1500kg. The 300 with a GVM upgrade has a payload of 1600kg.
Both required a GVM upgrade to build a basic tourer and tow an offroad van with the family. The wagon actually has more payload.
Hey Cam, what about chairs
When the vans in tow they go in one of the hatches, when I’m on swag trips they fit with the swag on top of the drawers, or across the back seats 👍🏼
Hey Cam
I've been running a upright for a year or so but have changed my canopy setup size and contemplating going a draw fridge, how have you found the draw fridge? Does it stay cold in hot temps?
Both are great for different reasons. For efficiency nothing is better than a well insulated chest fridge, for convenience the uprights are ideal (especially having a small freezer), but for space the drawer fridge is the best as part of a single level drawer system like I’ve done.
Drawer fridges are efficient if they’re given the space to breathe! People that have problems with them have almost always boxed them into a tight drawer system with zero airflow. I’ve added a fan into the back of my drawer system to dump hot air into the wings 👍🏼
Would the fridge organisers fit a 40ltr rough county draw fridge?
Not sure mate. Dimensions are 550w x 235h
Kings 60 lt draw will the organiser fit please.
Dimensions are 550w x 235h 👍🏼
Super keen to hear your thoughts on the Drifta bladder. I was after one but heard a review that the taste wasn't the best.
Thanks Cam.
Definitely lots of plastic taste unfortunately. It would be my last option to drink from, more likely to use it for showers and washing.
@@WildTouringThanks for the reply.
The fridge canvas holder, couldn't you use magnets instead of sticking something to it?
Pretty sure all the drawer fridges have plastic cases, but could do for other applications 👍🏼
ah, thats a shame. I was thinking off my Engel.
Car Centre Storage and no chewing gum and kids sweets ? What are you thinking.
🤣 bottom of the glove box is packed full of lollipops for emergencies hahaha
What did you do to brody moss.. someone should put in a missing persons report. 🤣
🤣 I swear it wasn’t me hahaha
what size are those AOS bags?
It’s their underseat bags;

@@WildTouring thanks mate, how many did you fit across the kaon shelf? 4?
I’ve got 4. You might be able to fit 5 but could be a bit tight.
