    It's been a tough time for you both. Always ask for a tax receipt ,Try to only use BP they warrant their fuel, I keep right away from small servos it not worth the risk to save a couple of cents a litre, we diesel fuel could be truck diesel with a lower cetane rating . Spares will be an issue with most yank trucks with small dealer networks ... Go LC 200 we love ours Safe travels 🙏

Obviously the manufactures dont allow them to order on consignment hence not wanting to outlay the cash, Doesnt make our touring any easier when issues occur.

    New tow vehicle coming soon for us. First take away I will keep all fuel receipts. Even before your fuel dramas I was planning to fit a fuel prefilter with a water trap. Your experience with parts issues with US Utes is not the first I have heard. But don't be delusional about what a similar fuel contamination issue would have cost in a Toyota 200 series. The diesel injectors are horrendously expensive.

    • @LivingOffTheVan
      @LivingOffTheVan 2 місяці тому

      Wooohoo, yes do get receipts, glad you can learn from us and fingers crossed you have no issues. es we've heard of the parts issues, we thought they'd have more stock in Sydney especially for common parts like injectors and fuel lines. They couldn't even find a bloody hose clamp they broke in Australia. We know the cost would have been similar if not more in a 200, the faults that came up didn't indicate fuel issues and we obviously don't know this car, hence the unknown at the start. If we had a 200 we would have known it was fuel straight away and literally pulled over and drained the tank on the side of the freeway and avoided any damage whatsoever. That's the positive in knowing the vehicle.

  • @robertsheldrick4267
    @robertsheldrick4267 2 місяці тому

    Can’t blame the car for the fuel issue. That’s on the servo for managing the fuel tanks. We’ve had good Toyota’s and some pretty bad ones. Hilux, 4 runner(surf) and Landcruisers. Our RAM Hemi is running great towing our Lotus Trooper. We are wary of toyota’s and turbo issues, having had engines destroyed by them and multiple turbo failures.

    • @LivingOffTheVan
      @LivingOffTheVan 2 місяці тому

      Absolutely agree, we're not blaming the car, it's 100% the servo. We think GMSV though should up their game in common parts availability in Australia. We've never had turbo or engine issues with a land cruiser so we've been lucky by the sounds of it. We just know if we had a land cruiser, we would have know it was a fuel issue straight away and drained the fuel on the side of the freeway and avoided any damage. With the Chevy the faults coming up were random and it being new to us we had no idea it was fuel related.

  • @geoffcollicott489

    • @LivingOffTheVan
      @LivingOffTheVan 2 місяці тому

      We're not blaming the car at all, it's 100% the fuel that bought this issue on. Sorry we didn't plan on picking up dirty fuel and having to get all new injectors and fuel components. Although, GMSV should have more common parts available in Australia especially injectors and fuel components. 1500's are so common now, even as tradie's everyday rigs in the cities. GMSV broke a hose clamp that they couldn't even get in Australia. It's frustrating, especially when you outlay so much money, you expect great customer service.

    That's bloody fantastic you managed to get the receipt 👌 They legally had to give you one if you requested one anyway, but we all know they wouldn't have should you tell them it was for your insurance company company. They deserve to pay every cent of the damage caused The Newy area has some beautiful beaches ⛱️ and can see it with your awesome drone views ✌️ I thought one of you would do take the Chery on a dirt road to open the sunroof to simulate the "Priscila Queen of the Desert" 😅

      thank you, yes we just have to deal with it. We haven't crashed it yet so that's a positive haha Yes Hog's Breath wasn't better than a pub meal that's for sure, nobody can beat a pub meal and a cold beer!

    Well well well… it is what it is. But Im going to say told you so here. If you travelled around Australia should know Australia is Toyota Country. Parts are everywhere. Even at Broome you can almost get everything within days.
