  • Simpson Desert Episode 1 - Travelling from Toowoomba QLD to Quilpie only to be stopped in our tracks by a major flood event in the channel country, Blocking all access to Winton and Betoota like orignally planned, forcing on a 700km extra detour in a ditch effort to get around!
    Will the Van handle its first taste of dirt?
    Building an outback tourer? Or just keen to see what this weapon is about? Here is a run Through of the vehicle formally known as “Big D” “Big Delicious” or “The Missile”
    Its a Jap Import 2009 Mitsubishi Delica D5
    We have crossed the Simpson Desert with ease, its setup to explore, create adventure and to turn heads.
    Hopefully this inspires more people to look out side the box of the big heavy rigs, do you really need a 3-4 Tonne Rig?
    The Delica performed brilliantly across the whoops even while fully loaded.
    Which the Heavy Prado and 79 couldnt maintain that same pace. We put this down to the Lightweight of the Delica D5

      @@raingersupplyco4922 I took mine on the Coorong which felt pretty treacherous in parts but I'm not used to a 4x4. I was more worried about it tipping over

      Hi we don't have any upgraded ones we just use an equaliser strap through the standard tow hooks for now.

    I am thinking of buying one... how hard is to find parts?

    • @raingersupplyco4922
      @raingersupplyco4922  Рік тому

      not hard at all if you live in Australia Delica garage in Victoria or Qld will have parts or can get parts and they are a Delica specialist and know everything about them, we highly recommend. You can service them like any normal car just make sure you use the appropriate fluids for the vehicle.
