Gidday, I'm Paul Willard.
I like adventures!
I snowboard, ride a motorcycle, mountain bike (a little bit), dance (ceroc/modern jive), fish, tramp, all sorts of things.
I play guitar during my downtime, and watch a whole heap of movies.
Pretty much your average bloke.
Own a house, motorbike (road bike), boat, ute, big tv, dog (not an agro dog 🐶 🐾 🐾), snow gear etc 🤣
I own a GWM Cannon Ute, and love using it to take me on all my adventures ⛐

A week in the life of modding two GWM Cannon Utes
You Don't Need Music, Just Tell it as it is, Thank you.
Road tyres and papa tracks Yo !! slipping and sliding all the way you did amazing! Very Lucky
Having to essentially slam the doors to shut properly because the door seals are so thick is another 1
good for when I'm driving through a river :P
Did you get a lift to fit the 275 65 18 s on?
I have done a lift, but it wasn't needed for this tyre size, they fit in standard
Awesome piece of kit . Now you need to upgrade your Ute to then new GWM Tank 😂🤣😂🤣.
Have you seen the Cannon alpha ?
Awesome any body keen on a cannon weekend at mahia labour weekend
I like the light and 12v/USB? setup. Any particular reason you went with the right hand side?
@@scottandchels6813 My canopy is setup to have LPG and the fridge on the right side My dog box is on the left side of the canopy. No reason why I choose this way .. I just did :P
please pot more 80s sound content!! this is awesome
Woah, I'm not Paul, I do have a Cannon, and I do play guitar!
Giant! Nice one. The legendary Dan Huff. See his epic interview with Vertex Effects. ua-cam.com/video/XiCwR68Cp5I/v-deo.html
Dan Huff is a legend, and barely anyone knows of him (unless you a guitarist from the 80's :) ) I learned this in 89 / 90 when a Christian "in reach" musical tour group did a nation wide tour called "Fight the power". My friend Jason Elder (or Jason Duffy) was invited to play with them, and we learned this song together. Jason died in 96, and this is his guitar that I am playing. I think he bought it about 91/92
@@loudas Nice tribute to Jason 👍
What does cross country expert mode mean or do?
it locks the centre diff so the power is split 50/50 between front and rear wheels
They suck - their bullbar for the Cannon was terrible too - not ADR compliant
not sure why you'd wanna. talking one off road is basically playing russian roulette. theyre just basically LDVs with a few extra accessories. everything sprayed with beeswax that will keep the old cheap-steel-rusting problems away until at least warranty-expiry.
you are completely wrong . .and probably a troll
@@loudas nope, just an anonymous gwm tech. owners seem to like them though, pretty sure thats just the rock-bottom prices
@@Ghryst Sounds more like a butt hurt ford dealer 😆
@@chiefauditor1683 wrong, my employer sells 8 brands, including GWM and LDV, and none of them are ford. i'm the poor prick who has to fix the crud when ppl try to do stuff they're not capable of.
Thanks Paul, great video
So you didn’t tell us about cross country expert mode either?😂
I love your setup, just bought a cannon LCC and you video has given me so much confidence on this ute. May I ask if you are using stock suspension or have you changed the suspension system?
Suspension is not standard :) Here's the vid ua-cam.com/video/GoCrjLbIXOE/v-deo.html
When will u do a rig rundown?
Great idea .. I'm out on an adventure, maybe I doo one while I'm out :)
Hey mate, just a heads up, I've been told by gwm that an antenna can mess about some sensors (I have a 2023 canon x) not sure if it affects your model but thought I'd let you know.
Cheers Paul considering buying one, do you tow anything with yours. I have a 2000kg van all up and wondered how it would cope. 👍😎
I have small boat, but there is a guy in NZ that has a digger rental business, and regularly tows 3 tonne
Thank you it was weird getting close to lights and it going up and down constantly
Poer 🎉 Nice car
hey mate …decal looks awsm! …unfortunately the wifey wouldn’t let me put stickers on my cannon lol …but last night I took off the cover on the tailgate & am thinking about doing a DIY to turn the cover into a door with hinges & a latch, to store gear …there’s a lot of dead space in there:))
Flash new digs! 👍
That canopy looks pretty cheap ?
Are you asking how much I paid for it ? It's been on for almost a year, almost entirely parked outside (until recently) and seems to be well made, and dealing with NZ conditions.
I love u
Thanks Paul, great easy explanation.
Nice work Paul.
Hi Paul, Looking at buying the Cannon Ute. Can you change from normal Drive to 4L gear drive while vehicle is still in motion? Thanks John.
Nah, stop and engage 4L
@@loudas Thanks Paul. Best regards.
Thank you so much.
Thanks, mate. Great work and information👌
No problem 👍
Hi Paul. Does it the volume auto adjust stay off permanently when you set it? Or do you need to do this every time you turn off the ignition?
Stays off permanently
@@loudas Thanks mate. I took one for a test drive today, and found that at slow speed/stopped at lights the display would turn to a camera view. Which is shit if i can’t adjust my maps/spotify etc? Can i turn THIS off (and it stays off?).
@@27Dionysis this is configured in the camera settings. It's something like "camera speed" which you can turn off .. I think :P The camera is activated by the indicators
Good man cheers!
Hello Pual, how about you car now? is it maintenable? 😃
yeah man .. going strong
@@loudas That's great, as it's difficult for a new brand to enter a new market. Typically, people tend to buy a car in their market. Considering parts availability, convenience, and the mechanics has already spend time Thank you for choosing a Chinese car, I hope it will work reliably for you for a long time.🙂
? My dealer told me about all 3 things you’ve just mentioned
you must cool then
groan, here's another one, also not replying to messages ps4x4.com.au/product/ps4x4-jungle-fender-flares-guard-cover-to-suit-gwm-cannon-2019-2021-great-wall-ute-arch/
Yea I noticed it about 6 months ago but just thought they may have asked you and given you some discounts😂 Can't be trusted us Aussies.
Every video in your UA-cam channel looks great, and I know you are struggling so much to increase video views and increase subscribers and channel monetization, but not getting any results, There are some reasons that I found from your channel .If you fix these then your channel will get views and subscribers will increase very fast organically. If you want I can share with you?
No thanks :)
@@loudas Its ok
@@mdratulakondaplease can I send you my credit card details ~ sounds like you could me me a millionaire
You’re the man Paul
🤣
Wow Well done Paul 👍
as a follow up they have removed my content from their website. I called them again, and simply said "I see you've removed my content, thank you very much" Not sure why they couldn't have done that to start with
did the ohms not get changed when you piggy back onto the speakers
Nope
Awesome video. Thank you
You are the first hunter I know that actually owns one and takes it bush. We see a lot sold in Australia but they are all town cars, you dont see them off road. Let us know how its going in 5 years. I want to see how reliable it is.
Will do 😂
Ps I shot my first Sika (first deer0 hunting of Clements Road. October 89. I dont know what it's like now, there is an extra million people in NZ since then@@loudas
Be good to see your cannon at mahia we down here now
That’s me time for a tiki tour
Yeah bro .. I'm off again on boxing day :) Gonna head around east cape
Warren has a Prius
Watched it now 😂
Hey mate , how’s the canopy going so far . Thinking about getting one . Cheers
so far so good. All seems to be made well. A few leaks where I didn't tighten bolts LOL .. so double check your work HAHAHAHAHA
Where did you get 12 v power for the rear?
From the main battery. It charges when the truck is running
Looks sick dude !! How do you wire the lights ? Thanks

I know this is far from the time of posting but I haven't really taken noticed but have done recently and yes mine does the same. Do you know if they have done a firmware update at all. Plus mine is due for its for its first service so I will put the question to them and if there is I will let all know. Cheers - and yes totally agree with everything you have covered just a few buggy issues.
No fixes from the firmware updates for this :/
Great headlights
what about installing Star Link . then provide wifi to others nearby . Don't waste all that battery
I sell starlink installs in my job .. it's possible :P
