Tyler Thompson...the hardest working video editor on TY
Great video! The drone footage is interesting to see. I drove part of that Georges track last weekend and its a beautiful spot. Many years ago you could drive to East Kunderang from Georges and then up to Kunderang Brook and out to Kempsey through Kookaburra. It was was a great drive. There are sump busters all over the place now put in by NP to deter you attempting it.
Does anyone else get motion sick watching Kye read while being thrown around?
What I love most about your videos is you take your boy with you! That’s so cool! I have a six year old who would love these types of trips. I’ll be trying to do the same with him. I also have a NP300 and I am slowly doing modz like you to get it up to scratch. Can’t wait!
How good is Georges Junction! Tyler I totally recommend you invest in a blow up canoe, we have a 2 man Colorado canoe which allows us to explore the waterways of where we venture to. We actually camped at Georges Junction in October school holidays by the river and saw so many Macleay turtles. We are so lucky to live in Australia. Keep up the great videos and thanks for sharing. Cheers Marg
Looks like a beautiful track. You don’t think of Australia as having that many wild rivers, but they are just hidden haha. That’s the problem with so much of Australia being tied up in private pastoral land.
Exactly mate it's a real shame. You'll be battling to find places like this in Western Australia. So much beautiful land is taken up with farms and rural properties. And when it's not it's a drinking water catchment or something you can't access.
I think I need to get a fire pit, that one looks fantastic!

Another good video mate. 👍👍
Seeing the obvious benefits of a rear diff locker on your vehicle and how easily your dad’s vehicle gets stuck, with the consequent continuous wheel spinning, he mustn’t get very good mileage from his tyres, not to mention the erosion he’s doing everywhere. (As do all 4WD vehicles, that lack a diff locker) Diff lockers are definitely a great addition to all 4WD’s that venture off road, for obvious reasons. Despite the absence of a diff locker on your dad’s vehicle, it’s impressive how he manages to get up some of these rough tracks, he obviously has a lot of experience and does okay.👍👍
Said it before to you mate what an absolute stunning country you live in pleasure to watch again 👍🏴
Your aerial views Tyler are extremely good and its great to see the old man Kye and you enjoy your time together ,Stay safe digger.
Tyler approach the homestead via the top Raspberry Road, fly by the Halls Peak access. A lot of drone worthy places over the river below on the way in.
Sunday afternoons.....watching TT break his old mans car while I am cooking pork roast on the spit. Life's good!
Another awesome vid, mate. That has to be the best looking scenery in any of your stuff. The Nav ain’t too bad either....
The wheels look tops. Nice pick
I'm going to have to find that camp at the end of this episode. Looks epic.
One of your very best Tyler! The Mighty Macleay! Best river & valley on the east coast!
Love seeing where the unlocked MU-X can go . I have one with a rear E locker and it makes crap tracks soooo much easier .
Bloody awesome scenery and camping spots, my favourite 4wdriving, absolutely lov it buddy 👍👍👍👍
Came back from styx river today love the place unfortunately it rained on us all weekend but still good times, got to find some more camp spots, awsome video's mate keepem comin
Glad to hear he’s opened that track. Was camping there a couple of Xmas’ s ago and was disappointed it was closed. Thx for the vid!
So cool man, beautiful track look lush, fire pit is sweet as might look into investing in one, cant wait for the next epp
Awesome! Thank you!
Been here before beautifully spot! The drive out there is an awesome adventure in itself..
Great video, it looks so peaceful out there. Your roof top tent has a quick set up time but the snow peak looks like a lot to carry and set up every day, I think there are a few simpler fire pits on the market.
Great stuff Tyler.👍
What a video!! Awesome watch
Glad you liked it!
You do find some really nice places to go and things to go and see. Love dads setup he’s fridge slider. Be interesting to know the dimensions. Want to know how you guys clean up after a session in the mud. Gerni karcher etc. wife is looking for Christmas ideas thinks I might need. Wouldn’t mind your drone either. She surely does focus on those spectacular views doesn’t she? Nice video as always mate. Keep em up!!!
Great stabilization on the camera on the bonnet of the Isuzu. Great filming and tracks too!
Thanks a lot!
Always inspired to go exploring with my son watching your videos!
Not all the way thought yet but great ep! The rear bar helping well on the track at George’s 👌
Just subscribed, even though i dont iwn a 4wd anymore, or go camping much, i love seeing this stuff...one day, when funds allow, i might get back into 4wding. Love your channel.
Thanks for the sub!
I used to watch your videos from when you started. Back into them again and loving the new ute mate.
I'm about to go back and pick up where I left from and watch everything! Haha.
Would also love to see the secret track. I do similar style trips like you and live seeing the sites no one cares to visit.
Cheers mate, enjoy!
Another great one as always mate. Cheers Steve
Spectacular scenery, talk about living the dream
After I had a day out exploring and only found 1 nice spot, coming home to watch this makes me feel like I found more 😂 great video mate 👌🏻
Haha thanks mate
Hi Tyler another great video great country you explored my kings awning had exact same issue recently all but the end rivets sheared off refined using 10 gauge self tappers doubled at the old fixing centres fingers crossed that’s it now
Okay thanks for the tip mate
George’s junction looks spot on Tyler
Another great vid mate. Enjoy livin the dream 😁
Great vid Tyler! Thanks for all the effort you put in compiling these videos. Cheers
TT, what beautiful country that is. I had a light bulb 💡 moment watching this video, have u thought about putting together a whole heep of clips of you and your dads travels and getting in contact with Isussu for sponsor ship ? The places your dad takes that car is a great advertisement for that car, most people would think it impossible.
I could do that!
Hi Tyler,
You mentioned in your video about the secret track and people annoying farmers. Peopl watch your videos for information including finding great camp sites. So can I suggest that you post GPS Coordinates of these camp spots which would be a great help to everyone.
I try give people a rough idea of areas then they can find it themselves, people want everything spoon fed to them these days. Half the fun is exploring and finding these places yourself. And if I gave out co-ordinates there would be hundreds of people from these videos all heading there, so camp spot isn't going to be so nice anymore unless you like camping in massive crowds
Dude, that's your best camp spot yet. I'm up in QLD, and have some similar spots. Next trip might be George's Junction.
Great video. Going to add this area to the trip list.
Super once again tyler.....
I know those river crossing looks relatively shallow and calm, but a good rule of thumb when doing river crossings is "one vehicle in the water at a time". Then if the vehicle ahead gets stuck or in trouble, only one vehicle is in the water. Unless of course you'll be driving on the river for quiet some ways, then simply leave a large gap in-between vehicles.
Went to George’s junction today cause of this video, great spot, going to go agin next fortnight to camp for the weekend, would love to find that secret track 😉🙏🙏
Epic tracks. Beautiful place
I love you videos. I’m always waiting to see if your dad has front lockers yet. Only a couple of minutes in. Nope. I’m sure you could get them from a sponsor.
Love it Tyler, what a great location. Thanks mate 👍
Glad you enjoyed it mate!
Another well done video mate👌
Thanks 👍
Another awesome vid mate really enjoyed it
Place looks awesome man
Live there mate, wave on your way past buddy 👋👍
Great little vixeo
Love the videos Keep doing what you do
Appreciate it!
Did this track today and farmer Joe ripped me a new one. Sick track but!
Once again, great work!!!
Why have NPs locked off the track???
Jeebus Tyler, but your old man a rear locker for Christmas 😁😁😁
Might have one coming 😁
hi love ur videos , how has the narvara gone what have you done to it cheers mate
Hey Tyler. Has your old man ever thought of putting in a locker?
Keep up the good work
He deserves one!!
Awesome vid once again 👍
Greetings from Germany.
Great video, I’m from Kempsey and I love it up there. The homestead you mentioned is East Kunderang and run by NSWNP, west kunderang is further around again and a great spot to stay. I’d love to know where that secret spot is! I think I might know the general area.
Ever been to Mary’s View Tyler ? Looks down on where you were We’re doing West Kunderang over Xmas. Can’t wait
@@craigwoodward4566 have you been to WK before? I haven’t been for years but loved it, spent the week fishing
3 generations of family dudes 👍
Get ya Tyler on
Hi Tyler, enjoy your videos. Just wondering where did you get your fire pit with the surround. Very cool. Thanks.
Thanks mate! It's from 'Drifta'
The navara is one capable animal 👍😁
another nice video. Tell pa I feel his pain, lol. And what front recovery points do you have on the Navara? Thanks
Ironman 👌
Another question where was the bit with the tow truck saw in beginning 🤷
It's a 4 part video, so it will no doubt be in the coming episodes.
Part 3 of the series
i was there about 2 months ago, its only an hour away from me in nambucca heads
Lucky man, very lucky.
I camp her every year and they had floods and the water went up 10.5m
Nice 🙌
Great video mate
Is Good Friday a higher point then that lookout you had lunch at
Not long ago I done collombatti and the farmers track is a dead end looks like the farmer put a fence up where the map shows the way out
I farted alot watching this, great work.
We got lost in this Forrest one night cause silly me was using Google maps 😂
Pretty sure the flashing red light is emergency. It flashes an “SOS” signal...
I just thought it was for Port and starboard, no port left, and when the port bottle is dry you press that and you get more port. Hahahha😂
Looks like it was a fast 3 flash then should be 3 slow flashes then 3 fast. SOS in Morse code. But its its not used anymore.

Where's the bridge in 00:16 located ?
Please.
what song is at the start of the video? cheers
Tell dad he needs a difflock 😂😂😂
Hi Mate, I know u have your extra power set up behind the back seat. Was there any issues around having it set up inside the vehicle cabin? Or does the type of batteries dictate where you can / can’t set it up?
Hey mate, yeah can change depending on the type of battery. no issues with lithium or agm for being inside the cabin
Can't find this fire pit ring table anywhere.. where was it from?
Drifta Stockton sell it
@@TylerThompson90 ahh musta sold out or something.. anyway, awesome channel mate!!
@@sajinfilmstudio6859 Thanks mate!
I stopped watching this video and writing this comment: Your dad is pretty good at picking the line. Please let him know
Ill let him know mate!
I think you’re dad needs a new 2021 d max rear locker standard
Hi Tyler, Did you change the spare to the new wheels ? If yes how did it fit up under ?
Nope I haven't yet, will be the same though as it is the same size rim.
Hi mate I've DMed you about a rig walk around. Let me know. IVECO Daily 4x4 on 37's etc.
Ill have a look mate, cheers
Are you using a drifter chainsaw bag? If so, what do you think?
Using the crashpad chainsaw bag which I really like, never used the drifta one
Could you get a camper/caravan down to the river camp spot??
Yep
👍👍👍
What mods have been done to your 4x4?
Watch his vids mate, they are all documented from the day the Nav rolled out of the showroom.
I don't C u using a hand held cb when you give instructions to the old man! You don't like them or don't get on with them
Just forget to get it out of the car haha and depending on the situation often easier to use hand signals anyway
