    ABOUT ME:
    I'm old fashioned, a bushman and solo Overlander, exploring the Pilbara where I live and Australia as a whole. I'm teaching myself film making to share my travels and experiences with my 1 year old son so he can watch years from now. I'm also sharing them with you, many people will never get to see or go to the places I'm going so I hope you find them interesting. Enjoy the weekly videos, the solo eXpedition's into the Kimberley and the world longest and most remote 4WD track the 2000km Canning Stock Route. There is so much more to come and I'm excited to share it with you.
    Join me as I take you around Australia and show you the best solo touring this country has to offer.

    yeah ... get rid of the 18" rims .. put them in storage when you go on your trip with your new 16" rims with mud terrain tires so you can air down properly

    That Ranger is dialed-in. Really like tgat setup; perhaps a mild lift on 33s.

    Hi, nice video and setup. Great Information regarding the second battery charger. I will now definitely have to deep into the smart alternator comment. As I also want to go for a battery box setup. Will their dttp charger solve the issue? Or what is the best solution?

      G'day mate, thanks for reaching out. I've checked the video and its working fine on my end. It may be a UA-cam glitch and the issue seems to be gone now.

  • @1FiftyOverland

    Just curious what's the price difference between a ranger and F-150 in Australia?

    • @Detonator_Prime
      @Detonator_Prime 5 років тому +2

      An absolute shit load. I have the Ranger Raptor that is $85k and to buy an F150 brand new will be $140-$150k. F Trucks are massively overpriced in Aus. It sucks. We also pay a lot more for gas than you guys so F Trucks are not practical, not to mention our roads and parking areas are not F Truck friendly.

    Nice rig, not sure about the colour but its a wrap so all good. Few mic issues lads?. pain in the arse when it comes to editing and realise the mic was not on, lol. Good stuff. ATB Moose

    • @GavinGillett
      @GavinGillett  6 років тому +1

      Um, not sure what you mean. P.S. you just made me watch it again lol. No mic issues on my end and i checked the youtube version to be sure. Got a timestamp just encase i'm hopeless.

    • @Detonator_Prime
      @Detonator_Prime 5 років тому +1

      Gavin Gillett the sound is only coming out of the left channel so if you are wearing headphones only in the right ear he goes silent all of a sudden from 6.15 through the end. Hope that helps.

      Of course, you should watch our show. We just finished doing a 12,000 km round trip from Karratha in WA into SA and back. Roughly 7000kms on remote tracks :D

    don’t know who told you ya can’t turn off smart charge cause you absolutely can.

    • @GavinGillett
      @GavinGillett  6 років тому +1

      How? I rill relay that info back to Cam

    • @MrLoridin
      @MrLoridin 6 років тому +2

      Gavin Gillett Ford can do it, it’s called enable dual battey mode.
      Otherwise we do it ourselves with Forscan and an OBDLink MX. Suggest he visits saeb.net for more info and help. I did this for a guy this week on his new 2018 Wildtrak. Works exactly the same as my 2016 model.

    • @GavinGillett

    • @GavinGillett
      @GavinGillett  6 років тому +1

      Hi Mills, he's been getting some debonding in the join where canvas meets fiberglass. Sadly he's also been getting less than ideal customer service. Hopefully we can get him a new one soon.

    @matejhosner1980 5 років тому +1

    The end of story for me, when he says they are 18". That is not offroad worthy, my man.
    Otherwise the trucks looks baaaad! Just not my type. ;)

    • @GavinGillett
      @GavinGillett  5 років тому

      My advise to Cam was to go 17s to ensure tyres are available to him in the middle of nowhere. Sometimes he ignores my advice hahaha
