💥AUSTRALIA'S LIGHTEST CANOPY💥- Our new tow rig!

- HERE WE GO ! Our new tow rig with Australia's lightest canopy that looks amazing.
We thought long and hard and looked at a new car but realistically we couldn't afford a new tow rig and we absolutely love our cruiser and remembered why we bought it. So with that we sat down and had a think about it and said how can we make the cruiser better. We first said that a new canopy is a must and went looking and we think we have found one that ticks all the boxes, a Mode canopy made by Zone RV. Its a composite canopy and only weighs 220 kg before adding extras. With 2400L of internal storage and 55L of saddle boxes, it gives us heaps of room. We fitted a Bushmans 130L fridge and also takes our outboard in it which was a must for us. All that an side we still have plenty of room. We fitted it with a Redarc power system which will be available soon for the Mode canopy. On the back we have one spare wheel and ladder and the boat will go on top very soon. The canopy has a static weight of 350kg great for a rooftop tent allowing enough room for adults to sleep. So over all a very capable canopy for a wide range of uses.
With all that said we have travelled 1000km with it and we love it. Below is the link to there website if you are in the market to save weight on your gvm/gcm and we think it looks great as well.
In our up coming episodes we have some episodes on the other changes to the cruiser plus our new van. If you don't want to miss any of them, hit the subscribe e button and if you enjoy our content, please consider liking our videos.

The only weight you saved was getting rid of the tray and having canopy straight to chassis could of done that with any brand 🤷♂️
Looks ok . They look like a service body canopy . Change your fridge door to opening the other way , makes it more workable for your slide out bench
Just wondering how much weight did it save ?
Looks awesome guys. Fantastic job 👌
Thanks guys! Enjoyed the video as always! Hope you can get on the road again soon, cheers
Hey Guys looks bloody awesome! Love the new canopy and the set up can’t wait to see you out on the road in it 😁
Sooooo I was one who thought you were changing your vehicle 😏 very happy to see your not 👍
The new canopy is looking good 😊
2 locks to open canopy doors will drive you mad mate.
Nice zone caravan in the background guys 😂
Noice with the canopy. Did I spy a new van in the background also?
Last one i saw was all cracked mate absolute poor made canopy if your putting a boat on top sorry but id never buy one after seeing that one up in broome it was totally busted up
I really hope its good for you guys! You deserve good things!
so you decided to clickbait everyone. unsubscribe bye.
So whats the cost for a Mode canopy?
👍👍 Good one Guys
Love it! Cheers, dd
Congratulations guys 🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 that’s is one smooth rig. Oh gosh I hope you got a Zone caravan so we can be matchy matchy. Everything Zone creates is just quality. Your going to love that Canopy. So thrilled for you both 🤩🤩
Awesome layout for the canopy. You didn’t happen to purchase a Zone Expedition while you were buying your Mode canopy did you? 😁
Hi Deryck very nice but was wondering dies the black canopy get very hot inside?
Great video I got that completely arse about could not see u changing from the 79 so picked new 79 and old canopy but great choice and layout very much feel good happy trails😎
Morning 😊 Looks awesome 👍🏼 Glad you kept the 79 👏🏼Have a great week and Cheers 🍻 From South Africa 🇿🇦
Like it but think I like my Norweld better :-)
LOVE the Canopy. Why do many of the Travellers drink Great Northern, as the reason I dont is its a Mid Strength only Beer. MERCH IDEA : I note the new Mudflaps on the Canopy you need JUST VANNING IT Mudflaps , you will sell many. Dont forget to give me the credit LOL
It looks well Mode guys 🤪🤪 Make sure ya put a cover over that positive post on ya new Battery set up guys No sparky sparky Zappy zap ⚡ be good . Keep em comin you two. WooHoo 🙌
Wow i thought our fridge was big at 80ltr. But 130 that is bigger. We love our upright fridge. Glad you kept the cruiser. Looks good.
Glad you kept the cruiser 🎉
Good job peoples.....looks like a very nice and practical bit of gear .....I can understand why Big D is overjoyed......Stay safe guys.
Man why did you digress from Victron? in my opinion you have gone backwards but hey everyones different and its only my opinion. Anyway good set up keeping the weight down.
Will you switch the fridge door to swing the other way
That Canopy has The Feel Good Family vibe..Proven and Tested.
Good travels ,and keep up the content. 😉
I was thinking that too. Lots of good trips ahead ❤️❤️
Congratulations, guys. Did not see this one coming! I’m in the queue for one of these canopies for early 2024. The weight (or lack thereof) makes a canopy achievable for me, otherwise would not be able to entertain this without changing the tow rig. It’s a game changer. And dust free too, like their vans (which I can happily attest to) 😊
Awesome upgrade you guys, its amazing.
Now you have your boat motor with you but no boat 😂😂😂
Cheers
Johnny&Rene
Looks absolutely fantastic! Deryck you look so excited and happy! Great to see everything is coming together nicely for you both 😄👌
I’m excited to see what you guys have been up to 😃
It's all about weight now days. I hope it all works out as you intended.
Looks great, well done
Nice one guys! Actually makes sense as we could not see you dropping the Cruiza after all the love it’s shown ya! What a great canopy - one we will consider as we get ready for our adventure!
So I guess the new van will be a Zone?
Do you ever flush your outboard moter
Looks great. Looking forward to seeing your next travels
Looks great, like the setup, just shows what you can do do reduce weight, in the scheme of things the tray seems such a waste of weight considering most of us wouldn't ever take off the canopy. Great build, give me some ideas for a future build
Reversing camera? Reverse Sensors? Rear Tray ?
Reverse sensors 😂it’s a 79 it’s lucky to aircon
@@tonykempthorne8178😂😂😂
I just love how you're modifying your car to make her more suitable for you guys rather than buying a new one. The new canopy looks great. Good one guys.
Larger fuel tank for the 79?
HAHA you bugga !!!, dropping the new van is just there !!! 🤣😂🤣 nice job with the canopy it will be awesome guys. cant wait to see your new van , where was Sue and Bob , still having a good time we hope 👍 thanks for the catch up .
Canopy looks good mate. Must better with the boat motor mounted in there so that you won't forget it and it's easy. I noticed you like wearing the Ecko Unltd T's. Do you find connection with Rhinos or is it because the company donated money to the preservation of rhinos or is it something entirely different?
I guess a zone caravan
Looking good! 👍
Nice one - I thought you were going American truck because of your weight issues but this is a much better and financially viable solution, awesomeness!
❤Love it !! Looks very smart on the back of the cruiser 👍So happy you kept her can’t wait to see more 🍻🍻🍻🍻💕💕
Looks great
So cool to see and pass you on the Bruce today. Black SS dunnydore we love the canope
Looks a neat setup. So good your got your outboard motor with you now.
We're here, invested and watching for your next adventure
