FIRST Time Towing Our BRAND NEW Caravan Off-Road! DAMAGE!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 лют 2024
- This week we leave the bitumen and trade it in for a 4WD track, making a big mistake by going down a track a caravan should NOT go down! We then follow it up by crossing the border of Victoria into South Australia heading to the beautiful Ewen Ponds.

• FIRST WEEK IN OUR NEW ...
The pond footage near the end was an amazing.
Wasn’t it!!!! Thanks so much, happy Easter. 💛🐰
Awesome show 🤩
Love the way you guys have the “can do” attitude.
And great under water shots .
Thank you!!! Love when we get to hit the tracks. 🙌🏼 And Ewen ponds was absolute magical, crystal clear. 👌🏼🤩
Congratulations on the under water filming ,great shots .
Thanks so much, it was honestly so magical in the water. ✨
Congrats on the marathon Lil, fantastic effort. We've got on stripes on our van. No longer stressed about them. I just add more.
If you can afford, Upgrade from GoPro to DJI. SOOOO MUCH better.
Thank you!!! 🩷 hahaha, love it, wear them like marks of Honor. 🙌🏼 Yeah, so many people suggesting to look into them! Thanks for the tip. 👌🏼
Thanks again for sharing your adventures with us. Cheers
Our pleasure, thank you for watching!!! 🙌🏼🥰
My son and his GF were there a few days ago and said it was epic. He said he would have paid 3 times the price for the experience. That "damage" is nothing!!! We had our maiden voyage in the brand new van and clipped a new 4x4 at St Marys. No damage to our van, but ripped the front driver's side panel of his ute. We stopped for a coffee. The coffee was terrible to boot!! Lesson learnt. Dont turn too tightly in a restricted spot. Keep up the great work guys. I look forward to your weekly posts.
Epic - one of your best. I love the realism of your vids. I'm very proud of you two Tassie dudes.
Yiew!!! Thanks so much Tim! Stoked you’re enjoying the vids. Will keep em coming. 👌🏼
I’m still loving the fact you got a new caravan and we can still watch your adventures 👏👏👏😁. Once again an amazing little teaser of what’s to come 😊. Can’t wait. Safe travels.
You’ve officially christened the van 😂 what a journey 😮I would have been stressing out but you guys did so well love the underwater footage, stunning 🤩💕💕💕🍻🍻
Yes!!!! Thought it was time! Couldn’t help ourselves. 😂 didn’t the underwater footage turn out so well!! Couldn’t believe how crystal clear it was. 🤩
The underwater footage of the ponds was amazing, well done. Cheers!
Wasn’t it magical!!! Can’t believe how clear the footage came out. 🩷
The pond shots were absolutely breathtaking! Still picking my jaw up off the floor 😍
Its one of my favourite parts to the week- watchingbyour vid! Thxheaps and the track and spot look awesome! Another awesome spot for the bucket list! Phil
I love how you guys just get on with it, i stress too much. We scratched our van so bad at 6 weeks old that its now in insurance getting fixed 😂😂😂. Enjoyed this episode as always
Hahahah, gotta do what you gotta do! 😂 oh wow, that’s a great result though, it’ll feel like a fresh home! Thanks you for all of our love. 🩷
Great work guys. Keep the videos coming.
Well done , you never got bogged .
That underwater footage was cool, what a great place.
Cheers Sentinel! It was such a special spot, can’t believe how well the footage came out. 👌🏼🤩
Love your videos and great meeting you at Craigs Hut!!😊
Omg you guys are so hilarious 😂 😃 I've now got my mum watching you as well and she's hooked!!!!
I can't believe how far off road and the adventures you're prepared to take your car and new van 😮
Hope you've recovered Lil from your marathon 😊
Omg!!! No way! We love that so much. 🙌🏼 yeah, to be honest, I can’t believe how far we take it too. 😂 Finally recovered!! Took a few days that’s for sure. 😅
At the bog hole walking the track.
Your comment Jake, " I love what your wearing today " !
Was that comment to try and keep the piece while in a situation your wife didn't like ? 😂😂
😂
Awesome video Lily and Jake really enjoyed it. I’m glad you’re van got through that bush with out getting damaged. That water hole looked really cool. I was saying to myself I wonder if you both checked to see if there is any Crocodiles in the water hole or not. So looking forward to seeing you both on Saturday night for the next episode 😊
Cheers for your support as always Jeremy! Yeah, couldn’t agree more!! So stoked it came out alive. It was an incredible swim spot, can’t believe how magical it was. Hahahah, no crocs there luckily, waaaaay too cold! See you next week. 🙌🏼🤩
Love Lil's commentary through the 'bog', hilarious. Not mention driving over the drone! Almost convinced me to get a winch too. Maybe ditch the GoPro for a Dji Osmo
Haha Im glad you two have patience with each other, good job Jake moving the tree off the track, that snake would have scared me too, pythons don't scare me, but that looked like a brown snake, hope you weren't in trouble for eating Jake's bickie, the water in the ponds was so clear. Take care, stay safe. 🙏❤️💃🕺
Yeah, MOST of the time! 😂 Yeah he did such a good job, was a bit of an eventful couple of days. 😅 Thanks for your love and support as always. 🩷
Hi guys, maybe somebody should come up with a canvas cover that clips to the side of the van when travelling down fire tracks
What the heck
That water is epic!!!
Awesome spot those springs, reminds me of my very younger days spending hours swimming in springs like that on my uncles farm in South Africa Groot Mariko
You need to change your equipment to DJI action cameras end of your dramas no overheating no corrupted sd cards no stop recording with no reason
Good job in clearing the track its needed and the rangers cant get to all of them fast enough.
Thanx for your hard work.
Cheers
Johnny&Rene
Oh wow, how amazing is that!! What a great childhood memory. Yeah, a few people have been saying that, we will have to look into some GoPro alternatives! Thank you, if you’ve got the time why not hey! 🙌🏼
Well done you two, that tree moved no worries. I thought you wouldn’t go down narrow paths with your lovely new van but silly me of cause nothing has changed which is great🥴🥴. That was a bloody big snake guy’s hope you had shoes on Jake. That Ford Ranger does surprise me as it gets through most things when others fail😂😂. That’s a lot of gods and lords Lill, shame about the drone though but keeping away from that snake has to be your priority especially in the middle of nowhere 🥴🥴. Jake you should give Lill a massage I think she deserves it after that huge run she did😤. Thanks for another great show 🤣🤣. You two. Jon
Cheers Jon! 🙌🏼 hahahahah, wish you were right. Maybe one day we will learn! 😂 Yeah, it was huge. Jake had to put his high top Ugg boots on after that! 😂 yeah, I was even cringing watching myself back there too. Usually we cut a lot more of them out! 😅 I think I deserve some RnR that’s for sure with some of the shit he puts me through!! Thanks for watching, glad you’re enjoying it!! 🙌🏼🤩
Not sure what the point was to take that tight track. I thought there might be a great campsite at the end of it but it just joined on to a main dirt road. Short cut?? Anyway, loved the episode.
Sometimes I ask the same thing Jason! 😂 Nah, the plan was to try and take a short cut to SA but it didn’t quite work out for us. All part of the adventure though! 🙌🏼
Love the episode just go and dont let small things get to you the two of you is teamwork nice content cheers
Grab yourself a DJI Action 4 they are amazing compared to the GoPro we are very happy with ours.
Love the channel by the way 😁
Yes!!! A couple of people have been saying that about the DJIs, maybe something we should be looking at. 🙌🏼 thanks so much for the support! 🥰
try the DJI Action 4 ... i have a 3 and it has not played up at all even sitting on the dash in full sun... just yesterday it was sitting on the motor when i started it, the poor thing fell down on top of the exhaust manifold, it was still filming 20 minutes later when i started looking for it after i remembered where i had left it.
Shyt insane guys
Hahahaha, just out here living our life doing silly things! 😂
It always sucks christening a vehicle but at least it's done now and you can enjoy your new caravan. I always feel that way with my cars and vans but we know that bush pinstripes are inevitable.
Absolutely!!! Don’t want to avoid going down cool tracks to avoid it. Part of the fun living on the road! 🙌🏼
We need tougher non scratch paint ! Well done guys !
Holding up okay so far, straight to buff it out. 😂 Thanks for watching as always Sammy!! 🥰
Amazing Underwater footage 👏
Thanks Helen!! Wasn’t it so clear and magical! And cold. 😂
That pond was epic have to make sure we visit there. Man the extra height of a non-pop top van really showed on this episode. Re GoPro agree they are rubbish get yourself some DJI Osmo’s far superior and don’t hover heat etc.
You opened up the track for others to use just like 4wd 24/7 do every 2nd episode
Nice work
Glad your having a crack , but are you regretting not getting a narrower lower hybrid so you can entertain us with your bush adventures that are great to watch
Yeah, exactly what I thought as soon as they revealed the new van coz had the same regrets when I got a bigger van. I didn't want to be negative so I've left it for you ha ha
Every van has its pros and cons! Absolutely loving the van overall, it’s been the best thing having so much inside space.
@@lilandjake we downsized from a 18.6 to a Alpine 16” with the same battery and solar as you have so we could go to more places. Happy for you both and I’m not in your position of travelling full time .
Watch for the green ant nests in those tree's mate.😂
New heavy duty battery Nate , l had trucks for 25 years Diesels need good batteries, good effort Lil on your marathon ❤
Yeah, good tip! Hopefully we’ve got it sorted now. 👌🏼 Thanks for that, so proud I made it. 🥰
nice video guys ✌
Thanks so much Steve!! Hope you enjoyed it. 🙌🏼
yeah guys haven't seen your videos before ill give them a view . great adventures guys@@lilandjake
Goooood Morning!
Happy Saturday! 😎
I don't think you could fit another OOh Mmmmyyyyy Gggggooooooood, in there Lil, so funny and the tone kept getting higher and higher LoL. Good to know you're coming back through SA, if you're in Whyalla remember to let me know so I can say Hi to you legends, Whyalla is very small so we're not hard to find 😃
Hahahahha, yeah sorry about that! Was cringing watching that myself. 😂 won’t make it that far this time, maybe next time for cuttlefish season! 🤞🏼
@@lilandjake well we’ll be here for the winter giant cuttlefish season so just drop us a message and you can stay for as long as you want guys, it would be awesome to host you here cause there’s so much to do and see. Safe travels guys.
Looking at google maps I can't see why you needed to go offroad to get to Ewens Ponds Conservation Park.
Oh sorry, we were actually still in Victoria for that section. We just had a couple of days off between filming but desperately wanted to share the Ewen ponds footage!!
Looks like you are missing the cowling that sits over that gap in front of the radiator. I believe it directs all the air to pass through your radiator and keeps your water and oil temps just that bit cooler when you are moving.
Nice pickup! I’ll have a look and see if something is supposed to be there! Thanks for watching!
How good are the DO35, you'll never be able to go back to a normal coupling again. What have you done to the new van!!! 😮😮 Those ponds are beautiful. 🤩 I hear the DJI Osmo is a good alternative to the GoPro. 👍 Cheers Guys. 🥰🥰
Yeah, super handy!! I know, couldn’t resist ourselves than to take it off-road. 😂 yeah, we have too actually!! Maybe something to look into. 🙌🏼
The ice cold water will probably do a world of good for Lil’s legs
Couldn’t agree more Susan!! It was actually just what the doctor ordered. 🙌🏼
Can you send drones ahead to check the roads and conditions???
Haha yea did not think of that 🤦♂️
Buy a bloody battery. Jump starting 5 times is 4 times too many 😂
Gopros are crap in my view too - btw. So many frigging problems all the time.
Couldn’t agree more!! Might have to look into something else! 👌🏼
OMG 😂😂😂😂😂😂
What a rollercoaster! 😂
Woul😊dnt take my crusader here, no efn way
Lil's still tripping out on her runner's high , I'd be dead . I got a flat tire on my Bike 5 miles from home the other day had to walk it back slept for 10 hours that night & could hardly move the next day { I am 61 } 🙂
Hahahahah, so funny. I was honestly dead. 😂 oh no!!! That’s a nightmare, what doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger though right. 🙌🏼
What hitch are you running with the new caravan
Hey lil and Jake when you went to Ewens ponds ( it is just beautiful under the water my happy place) after ponds, did you check out Little Blue lake. Did you jump in from the cliff top?
We went to robe as well a few weeks back, it is a pretty place.
Isn’t it magical under there, such crystal clear water! We did last time, missed it this time though. We are a bit strapped for time atm. 😅 Robe is beautiful with nice weather! 🩷
Oh Gees... What HAVE YOU GUYS DONE !!!???
Ha hA hA massive spider hanging in the air above your head Jake at 12:33!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.
🚁 I've heard of numerous issues with GoPro. I'd move away from using them if you can afford it as there are much better systems on the market now. Nice episode Lil and Jake! Great to see you guys off road again and forging ahead with the new caravan. You still haven't told us how the new bed is and are you sleeping better without the pull out mattress? A simple buff will remove most of those scratches Jake! How cold was the water? Keep up the good work!
Oopsie!!! 😂😂😂
Sorry I had to come back and edit my comment! 👍@@lilandjake
Yeah, i agree, lots of troubles with GoPro!! Will have to look into to some alternatives. Absolutely LOVING the new bed set up, super comfy, might get a topper at some stage in the future. Water was sooooo cold! 🥶
Great to hear your well comfortable in your new lodgings! 🤣🤣🤣. Yes I've heard the water temp can be a mite troublesome...Will you be going to Gambier as well on your travels? @@lilandjake
We visited but only just popped in quickly this time. Next vid is rapid bay I think!!! 🙌🏼
What do you use to transfer from iPhone to Mac book air ?
We actually just airdrop them! 😂
Where was that place guys, also, I have a DJI osmo, shits on gopro, I gave up on gopro at No 7
Couple of others saying that!! Maybe something we should look into. 👌🏼 Thanks for the tips!! 🤩
Hey Guys! I'm with Lil here. I get Jake wants to do "off road" but maybe just not fire tracks with that caravan. 😊 I must be old fashioned because if i just spent $100,000 + on a new caravan - I wouldnt want to instantly devalue it like that. Its not a judgement, each to their own. Love your channel btw! 😊
Hahaha, I reckon you could be onto something there!! Just cannot help himself. 😂 thanks so much for the support regardless. 🥰
Love watching you guys I really want to see you use the tinny soon
Next week Johnny!! Hang in there. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
@@lilandjake ok can't wait
What was the name of that track? From where to where? Thanks.
Electric chainsaw is your friend bro 👍
I know! I think we might get one!
So who ate the last biscuit ??
I bet you could have guessed. I (Lil) finished it up! 😂😂😂
“A show car” a ford ranger
I was up working near Coober Pedy when I said to my com worker that I would go up ahead and clear the track and I came across a tree that was fallen across the track, so I picked it up and pushed it to the side when I saw the grass move, I looked over and saw a King Brown Snake that was about 1.5 meters in length and we just had a mouse plague and it was well fed 😮
Oh wow!!!! That’s wild. I’d be running so far in the other direction. 😳
@@lilandjake I ran over two kms in 35 degrees
😂😂😂
Lil, I know it’s a brand new caravan but where’s your sense of adventure?
I did it though didn’t I? 😂
Lots of adds this week guys ....
Tree trunk protector? On a dead tree?
lol. Well you want to protect the rope, not the tree. You should use a short chain.
Sorry Jake should have checked my message "Mate" not Nate😅
Showcasing why caravans are a waste off time of the black top...
BTW Don't drag trees with a tree protector either! Get yourself a 2 - 5m drag chain. It's a handy bit of kit to carry.
Buy a chainsaw
Got one!! 💪🏽
Those go pros are just doing what go pros do,,,, consider the insta360 range of cams, I use the oners and can't fault it 🫰
