    How exciting, the start of the adventure. Good not to pre-book things. Go with the flow. Boys need to have time out of the car too. Great job so far. Enjoy!! From Geelong Victoria.

      Thanks a lot for your feedback Graham. We think not booking is the way to go, but they both have their pros and cons. Our Shark Bay episode premieres tomorrow at 5pm WST. Feel free to join us, we think it’s a good one 😉

    I hope it's the start of an awesome adventure and i imagine the memories you will make will be priceless and making videos of it will make it so much easier to remember them specially with the kids being so young.
    My only concern is the RAM 1500 as they have a very limited payload rating, with the towball weight, bull bar and just the family you will be on or extremely close to your payload limit, i hope you have a GVM upgrade on that rig so you are legal and for insurance reasons specially as it is now your tow rig for the trip of a lifetime.
    Can't wait for more content and more beers around the fire.
    Cheers.

    • @AussieFamilyLiving

      Thanks Damien, we have the same concerns about weight and to be honest, we don’t understand how a lot of people travel legally with the setups they have.
      We have had our setup weighed professionally… twice. The first time we were over weight in both the van and car. We removed a heap of gear and then got re-weighed and we are now under on both.
      We have upgraded the suspension in the vehicle including air bags, but it’s not a GVM upgrade. We found it difficult to find an upgrade for the DT. The solution we did find, did not increase the axle loads and we would have had to get a weight distribution hitch which would introduce other complications.
      Put it this way, it’s something we are very aware of and are keeping a close eye on. Hope you enjoy our future content. Shark Bay is out on Friday 😁

      Great to have you on board Gary. The R7 looks like a good camera. Should be able to get some good footage. We wanted a full frame rather than a crop, hence the R6. Let us know how you find the camera 😁

    What mirror extensions are you using ? Are they performing okay ?

    • @AussieFamilyLiving
      @AussieFamilyLiving  2 роки тому

      Hi Adam, we use the Milenco Aero 4. They do the job, had one of the nobs come loose once so far I think, but we saw this before it caused any issues. There is a little bit of vibration that goes through them causing them to shake more than your fixed mirrors, but not to the point that makes them unusable.
      The ram is quite wide so we could almost get away with just using the standard mirrors, legally though we are required to have the towing mirrors.
