    I'm so happy for you mate. From rock bottom to steadily climbing back out, it's great to see you smiling and enjoying life again! Looking forward to some touring and camping videos of Australia's west coast

      Thanks mate 👍 it's been a very difficult year for me. I definitely needed something to go right in my life. I'm so excited to head out filming more adventures once it's finally finished. Just need to finish off the 12v then I have my son coming down to spend some time with me so by next month the camping videos will be back to normal and hopefully weekly if everything goes right 👍

    Can't wait to see the finished build and where you take it.
    Great to see that Cheshire Cat smile still beaming!

    Every car really needs a GVM upgrade, 470 kg for canopy setup, maybe another 80kg for the roof top tent, 20 for the awning, jerrry cans full, plus all your accessories, the weights can really add up. But very sexy setup mate, love it 👍

    • @Campingdownunder
      @Campingdownunder  Місяць тому +1

      Yeah I'd definitely recommend anyone looking at getting a canopy setup this size to get the gvm upgrade. New cars don't give you a lot to play with from factory so it doesn't take much at all to put you over your gvm

    I have been considering getting one of these chassis mounted canopies. How do U think they will hold up to 4wding, is it compromised because of no tray. Yes they are lighter but is there a cost. Would be really keen to hear Ur thoughts and first hand experience.

    • @Campingdownunder
      @Campingdownunder  Місяць тому

      I haven't had the opportunity to test them out offroad yet but I will be doing plenty more review videos on it over the next few years. I was concerned about the same thing but I have been reassured they are definitely strong enough. Dan from explore bound has been running his for a while now if you'd like to ask his opinion & also borderland explorers have been travelling Australia with one for the past year & taken it on plenty of tracks so you could also ask for their first hand opinion 👍
