Got to say I didn’t notice the lack of music, but was nice not to have to sort the speech from the overpowering music as found in many videos from OTHER PEOPLE!! 😂😂! Maven videos are always good 👍
Welcome to the Prado club Maven.... Most versatile car ever made Good to you choosing to add the KAON products Awesome Aussie made gear..... Sorry Hana Maven is correct Prado is a much better car a well service Prado will last for years and retain a higher resale over a jeep by a country mile... I have a 2008 but more set for bushbashing , lifted, mud tyres & good lights 300,000km & still going strong even with weight in the back, tools recovery gear, fridge, big tyres & lift mine still pulls 1400 plus k's per 180 lt tank and I am some what of a lead foot
We have a two year old and a 3 month old and love watching you two be parents. I can relate so much and sometimes food down the gullet is the best part of my day 😂
Sad for you guys in lockdown. In the UK, we were experiencing our lowest point in Dec-April ‘21. We saw that you guys were all going to cricket matches and had full beaches etc and you guys must feel the same at the moment. Hang in there and be there for each other
If I didn't live in awesome New York, I'd want to live in Australia. You guys look like you really know how to enjoy life down there. Looks a lot like Puerto Rico.
Try removing the training wheels and the pedals and using it as a strider. That helped my child get accustom to the bigger bike and brakes. I then put the pedals on and skipped the training wheels altogether but each child to their own.
Fella, hope from the UK, vaccine is straightening things out. Not totally normal but much better than all the lockdowns. Glad the family is flourishing.
Great vehicle choice, and going with fuel capacity over aesthetics. Black would be my last choice of colour for off roaring, but the wife must be obeyed! Liking the lifestyle vlogs mate!👌
7 seater! You now need more kids! :) Also, should've never introduced training wheels. It's the sort of the thing you introduce just to then remove it afterwards, like pacifiers. He has the balance, he can pedal. Remove the wheels as soon as possible. It takes them hours, if not minutes, to get used to it. A few rides around a flat section.
as your best friend H is calling you out as a bit of a bullsh!ter to yourself. that's her duty and good on her. we all want to see iron man maven again (I remember that picture you posted)! I've still kept riding in lockdown (zwift) and watching what I eat, no alcohol - definitely no treats, we have to be adaptive as we simply aren't as active through the day as normal. you're lucky to have such a caring partner really. but yep she's going to bust them when she hears excuses lol.
Good to see you are back. Be interested to see how your weight loss goes. I am slightly older and heavier and bloody struggling even though I am cycling and trying to eat as healthy as possible.
I have had a similar car to the Prado here in the states, toyota 4runner since 2011, I can say it is not the most high tech car but it is built solid and I expect it to last the next 20 years. it has retained more than 50% value actually due to the current shortage of cars both used and new here, I have seen offers of 60% of what I paid for it and I have seen cars with similar spec for sale going for 75% of what I paid for it. Black would not have been my choice for the color expecially if it will not be garaged, but that prado is nice looking. Not sure if they are legal in Austrailia, but a Hitch mounted bike rack is nice to have. Sorry for the long message but this video covered multiple subjects I am interested in. Watch out for the crazy lady.
Off-road - someone did a survey where they found the average 4WD didn’t go off-road until it was 7 years old and on the second owner. No one wants to scratch or ding an expensive new car.
@maven, nice ride man….how “off-road” do you think you’re going to get with this thing? Many (most) that buy these types of vehicles, rarely take them too far off the beaten path.
is she a petrol or diesel Prado? either way get onto the motormouth app and tank up at the low end of the fuel cycle. long range tanks are great for that :)
Jack and Jack junior. Sorry don’t know name Mave. Enjoying you back on YT. Loving the mask under neck look. I was like this 03/20 on and off until 07/21. Somehow we’re in freedom in UK. Freedom day passed.
Maybe for you it isn't but some people work hard and earn a decent living. You can too. Besides, literally nobody buys a vehicle outright these days, including billionaires. Finance is the way to go. Buddy of mine drives Ferrari's and lambos and he almost always ends making a profit when he sells after contract ends.
Food down Gullet, lockdown or no lockdown , ace. I think half pro cyclists really foodies who have a Doctor who starves them with good quality carbs protein fats only upto limits
This is also the first-ever video that I haven't used background music, did you notice?
I noticed the 360P immediately, good morning from Thailand
Got to say I didn’t notice the lack of music, but was nice not to have to sort the speech from the overpowering music as found in many videos from OTHER PEOPLE!! 😂😂!
Maven videos are always good 👍
Just super happy for you being back producing content and being in a hapoy place.
Nope
From someone in the trade, I wouldn’t piss on a Jeep if it was burning mate
Toyota all day long 😬

HAHAHAHAHA, love the return of serve from Hannah = “that’s more than YOU!”. 🤣
“Mummy’s winning “.
I'd have to say I agree with Hannah on the rear tyre hanging off the boot. Reminds me of the 90s.
It’s 20degs here and its hoooot!
I have to say Maven is right about the Prado over the Jeep Han. The choice will pay off in years to come:)
Mark, take the pedals and stabilisers off Jacks pedal bike to get him used to it, then put the pedals back on when he’s more confident.
your little one has got your beautiful eyes mate, beautiful family. keep safe and well
Whack cop that Maven ..... nice work H calling him out!!
We have a two year old and a 3 month old and love watching you two be parents. I can relate so much and sometimes food down the gullet is the best part of my day 😂
“1.5kg that’s nothing” this man has balls of steel.
Get the chrome bits vynil wrapped, it’s reversible and cost effective.
Absolutely, or plasti-dip spray them. Also reversible and very DIY.

You guys look like you really know how to enjoy life down there.
Looks a lot like Puerto Rico.
Great idea installing the heavy-duty baby change table in the back! ;)
So good to have you and your family back with us Maven.
Your all looking good.
Stay healthy and safe.

Fella, hope from the UK, vaccine is straightening things out. Not totally normal but much better than all the lockdowns. Glad the family is flourishing.
With no music it just adds to there being no traffic or other people out in the back ground when you guys were out walking.
Keep the vlogs coming mate - love em
Great clip. Rate the Prado and the Kaon kit is awesome
That Kaon stuff is fantastic. Prado is a much better choice over the jeep!
Great vehicle choice, and going with fuel capacity over aesthetics. Black would be my last choice of colour for off roaring, but the wife must be obeyed!
Liking the lifestyle vlogs mate!👌
Agreed,black is a terrible choice for safety but style trumps function here.
7 seater! You now need more kids! :)

Thank god you didn't get a Jeep, the Prado is rock solid, will last ages!
Great video mate, loved it. Nice to see spirits in good shape :)

The crazy lady! haha
Aeropress! Makes a great cup of coffee and such a cheap and simple gadget!!
Nice one Mark. There’s some quality man maths going in there!
Over the Brudge and Far Away Bro. Good content. 👍
Thanks
Fantastic vlog buddy. Keep up the great work.
Spot on with the car choice! Wranglers look cool but are a headache to maintain.
enjoy watching your videos mate!
I can't fathom living somewhere where the government tells me to stay within 5km of my house. That is insane.
I can't believe what is going on in Australia. So sad.
From central London, you'll be okay. Wash your hands, social distance. Easy.
Mavennnnn
I don’t mind a little BG music if it doesn’t over power so speech and fades out properly. Great vlog as always.

@maven, nice ride man….how “off-road” do you think you’re going to get with this thing? Many (most) that buy these types of vehicles, rarely take them too far off the beaten path.
Probably never. ;-)
I am blaming H for any weight gain. She is an expert with tasty food preparation!
is she a petrol or diesel Prado? either way get onto the motormouth app and tank up at the low end of the fuel cycle. long range tanks are great for that :)
Nice wheels! Smart decision over Jeep
Ha ha she’s not there to pump up your tyres 😂
Let her go in the dirt!
Need a bigger car mate?? ;) good work bro keep on the video's and off the chups :)
Not on days we were locked down in the UK for literally 6-8 months in a few iterations
"I do not like spending money on cars..." in very next minute " I have bought brand new Toyota..." :D
PlastiDip the Chrome? :)
Thought about it.
Hey maven nice prado, vinyl rap the front crome grill don't paint it 👍
New car. Life's good.
Move to Qld Maven and family. Better weather limited lockdowns.
Had to stop in.. somebody said our voices are the same 😐
Jack and Jack junior. Sorry don’t know name Mave. Enjoying you back on YT. Loving the mask under neck look. I was like this 03/20 on and off until 07/21. Somehow we’re in freedom in UK. Freedom day passed.
You definitely dodged a bullet by avoiding the Wrangler. I like to keep cars for 10+ years, and I only buy Toyota or Honda products.
Evening Maven 🚴
Just remember...cars are just metal and bolts. Not a criticism - you do you - but I would not spend that money on just doing up a car.
no vaccine in Australia? In Italy we are in a good situation
the gov't is stockpiling it for some reason.
@@harrylook7810 No they aren't.
Will we see Ryno in the future? stay safe
men and women of culture, we meet again
Wow 6 lock downs couldn't be doing with that
The Maeve
Wife is always right
Caravan next mate...
Camper?
JEEP (Just Expect Every Problem)
64k is not affordable! :)

Food down Gullet, lockdown or no lockdown , ace. I think half pro cyclists really foodies who have a Doctor who starves them with good quality carbs protein fats only upto limits
1st
PlastiDip … it is reversible if you don’t like it …
Jeeps are crap. Good choice going with Toyota
