Good on you 2....i am 64 and am about to travel around aussie and love listening to you both wish i was young!!! Good on you both living the dream! Xxx
Thanks so much! Doesn’t matter what age, get out there and enjoy it! Safe travels 🙌🏻
Can’t wait to see the new van!
So excited! Thank you!
We have also fitted a WiTi on our Lotus not sure if you are aware of the setup. There are two setups we just have it for the van. Locks the wheels and alarms if someone tries to move the van. We also have some of that black non slip rubber mat for on the stove top for protection and to give more useable space.
awesome guys thanks heaps for sharing! We have seen a few putting the rubber mat on top of the stove. Happy travels guys thanks for watching!
Thanks for the update on the van. :)
No worries mate, cheers for watching! 🍻
wow! such a great video!! it was very involved!!
Legend mate cheers!
All vans have warranty issues, I run 500w on the roof and 500w on the ground, 3x170amp AGM batteries all victron grear and haven’t had a drama in 7 years. perfect for me. Go to hear a honest review. 🍻🛠🇦🇺
Awesome mate sounds like you have an awesome set up, excited to try some portable solar! Legend mate thanks for watching!
Thankyou both for the walk around and your experienced point of view , that is an amazing van you have sold , wish you both a safe and happy Christmas and enjoy your new Van 👍
Absolute pleasure mate glad that you enjoyed! You too mate Merry Christmas and see you around in 2022!
Love your work brother. Merry Xmas to you both 👍
Thanks mate appreciate it! Merry Christmas 🎄
We are about to pick up our first Lotus (Trooper 20’9) in a couple of weeks and can’t wait. After having a couple of dud vans we are hoping Lotus gives us some long awaited confidence in a van.
Awesome guys how exciting, massive congrats and hope it all goes well. See you out on the road 😍
@@Travellingcampers would love to catch up 😊
Great video and some really good points guys. Can't wait to see the new one!. M xmas
Thanks heaps mate appreciate it and Merry Christmas mate!
Great insights and opinions. Well presented video.
On the topic of solar, yeah very surprised you didn't get plugs for portable panels.
I bought one of the 300w KickAss folding panel set ups to go with a self made 200w panel. With 2 x external plug in points I use them in conjunction with 655w on the roof of my van. Victron 50a regulator. Never run out of power, albeit not running an inverter and "only" 360ah lithium batteries.
PS also towing with a Y62 gotta love em!
Thanks mate! Yeah we didn’t mate but will from now on! Sounds like an awesome set up glad it’s working well for you mate and to the y62 😍
@@Travellingcampers im showing the wife your comments on air suspension. I have been into her ear for some time about this as being essential.
Agree 100% that its an underrated aspect of setting up camp. Levelling chocks begone!
Keep up the good work. Fabourite video every week. Merry Christmas also.
Nice. I was at our dealer on Friday finalising colours and options. You should see the new 27 foot models
