You're a bloody legend Tyler...👍...I live in Tinonee over the other side of the Manning River from Taree and Wingham...We got smashed as well...My family is ok were on higher ground but the whole East coast got smashed...Our hearts go out to all affected by the floods...❤❤❤...
Fantastic story mate. That was a different time in those days, so cool for them both to catch up all these years later. And well done on donating your own money made, that’s very nice of you man. Top bloke.
Brilliant story Tyler I’m slowing working my way though the vids . What I like about your channel, no BS YOUR NOT PERFORMING for the camera like a few others I’ve just ordered my new Hilux my 3rd one and your trips have given me a few tips. I’m not a full on billy goat 4x4 driver but love camping on my own . Keep up the fantastic stories and trips
Tell them to buy a series Land Rover if they want to knock your Nav😁. Your car is YOUR choice, and you have to live with the consquince of that choice. My ride is a Gen 2 Paj V6, I suffer the high cost of fuel abuse.
Hi Mate, Firstly good on you donating to a good cause helping community. That story is fantastic... small world. Your spot on, all 4x4s have issues and I know 2 people with a 2013 and a 2014 Hilux that have had to replace the engine due to blowing up and I know one of them services the car religiously before the service was due and had it blow up due to a piston failing.
You can tell it is Luke by his trademark ‘thumb up’ while sitting with you on the roof of the Landcruiser. Good yarns and a very generous charitable donation from you. 👍🏻🙏🏽🙏🏽🦘🦘
That's a great story and crazy how coincidences like that happen. I hope the clean up goes well. I'll re-watch this a few times ... I dunno if that improves the ad revenue. Try owning a Mitsubishi hahaha ... and hello from New Zealand. Oh, and do Victorian high country snow adventure.
What an awesome experience with Like and your dad. I’ve not got that kinda memorable stuff with my dad, he was always away at sea when I was a kid. Still I’ve got a 2nd chance to so that with my lad so I’m keen to make some new history for my own family. Cheers Dave
Nice initiative donating the money you make from this one. Short 30 sec commercials doesn’t disturb the watching experience. - Yes, you do say frong. Keep it, it’s part of who you are. 😃
Love watching your videos, and hearing your story about Luke. You'll love the Cape. We've been up twice with our 3 boys, and planning another trip in October this year. If you get a spare moment, check out the Old Coach Road album on my Facebook page Limmer Adventures. You'll be in your element up there. Make sure if you do OCR, you stay a night on the track... then spend some time at Maytown. Happy camping!!
well done on ur flood relief effort mate. cool drone footage of the flooding. amazing how sometimes the full circle completes its self. looking at the prototype drifta kitchen, how cool. ur young fella looks like u in thoses pic tyler.
Such an awesome story, If your son wants a different novel to read may I suggest Hover Car Racer by Matthew Reilly, I read that book years ago, absolutely loved it. I let every Ad play thru.
Absolutely tragic what is happening up there. I'm in Victoria but I used to live in Wingham a few years back so I know the area quite well. Good on you for donating the ad revenue from this video, you are a champion! Also, you need to recreate that photo of you and Gary with Kai. Loved all of them photos mate
Love the story of you guys & Luke. As for people bagging the Nav, many of us are just biased to what we drive. I know I am for the Pajero. The Nav does what you want and need so it's a good vehicle. Well done with the donations mate and hope you get a bit to donate. I have family at Wauchope although not in contact so I'm not sure how she is.
Love the story, wow, Gotta admit it was hard watching the ads and not skipping them, they drive me insane, but was for a good cause , good on ya 👍👍👍 Kai looks just like u when you were young
Awesome story mate that just shows how small our world is and that in life some meetings are for a reason. Now you an luke have a relationship which was technically formed 25yrs ago that’s cool.
Sadly floods are just part and parcel of living on the north coast. This one seemed a little different- relentless coastal rains, as opposed to rain in the hills. I think we kinda got off a bit lightly in some ways. Imagine the 500 mm up in the catchment. Frightening though! Thankfully things are slowly returning to normal -and good on you for donating your revenue $$$ 😎👍
Fantastic story. 👍👌 What a serendipitous moment. Even made better because it's true - the photos proves it. Love seeing 'em by the way. A photo of Luke's old Troopy and his very first camp kitchen. I bet Luke loved seeing them too. Your son is almost a spitting image of you when you were little. No doubt who his father is. 😁 And good onya for your generosity. Makes me proud to support the channel. Keep it up.
Hey Tyler. Hope you and the famz are safe mate! Let me know if you need anything? I'm at Tele Pt and lost a lot but not as bad as the neighbours. Stay high and stay dry legend 🤙
I never skip ur ads bro. I wanna see u succeed atthis gig so bad. I subbed after the 1st vid I watched and have been binging ever since. Love ur work mate.👍 Ur doin what we all wish we could do.🍻
Awesome story mate such a small world. The question is when are those 3 going to get back together for another epic reunion trip. And when they do I hope Luke still has that sweet original drifta troopy👌
I'll replay many times after watching, If we all did that it might help, Idk. I like your story about Luke & Dutchy and could see it made your eyes watery. Cool vid Ty.
I have a 2016 D23 NP300 Navara. The same comments have been made to me as you have received. Like you I am very happy with the Navara and chose it over other makes after test driving for two hours each Toyota , Ford, Mitsubishi, Foton, Isuzu etc. I deliberately left out the VW because of lack of low range and more importantly their disgusting faking of emissions figures. The Navara has served without problems. It has a modest RAW 4x4 lift, shocks etc and slightly larger diameter tyres, ARB canopy, tow bar ,front bar, centrifugal air filter, dual battery system [my design and construction], fridge etc. It has been to the high country on iconic tracks, has done work in sand dunes on the Eyre peninsula, been driven in the Flinders Ranges and so on... the very mild Cooper ATs are up to 80,000km and the whole car is pristine. The only thing I do differently to others is to change engine oil every 10,000 Km, service other things more frequently than the book asks and rotate and balance the tyres every 7500Km. It is a very economical car even driven hard with a 50% load. Like you I was a teacher; I taught Geography and English in secondary school in the UK, Mudgee NSW in the 1970s, Zengeza Zimbabwe as part of an Australian aid project, and several schools in SA. As you probably guess I am retired, over 70, and still enjoying my 4x4 driving and this beautiful country. Even before I had a 4x4 I explored remote areas of Australia and Zimbabwe in ordinary cars.
Great story, would have been awesome to have seen the look or moment when Luke and Garry figured out they met 25 years ago. Incredible thing you are doing to help out your community, well done TT
Gary & you meeting Luke & Dutchy is the best yarn I have ever heard ever, funny how in life unfolds and you are always discovering things that bring a great smile to your face! Serendipity indeed!
Tyler just remember the 80/20 rule 80% of people will love , cherish all you do and 20% will hate detest what you do. 80 is far better than 20 so just concentrate on those who are positive and the nay say negative will go away. Keep up the great work and attitude with cars. All cars have issues and if the Toyota were so great why is there a class action against the company RE: DPF function.
I lived in Blayney from 93 to 98. Not really a town for outsiders unless you played rugby league. I liked the climate though, not too hot in summer & cold in winter.
Good effort fund raising I couldn't get home the Friday but managed to winch through bago to get home to Byabarra Saturday morning tracks out there really chopped up
I couldn’t managed the 15min advert but I hit mute for the 7min one and put some tunes on, hope it makes a difference, bloody terrible I used to live in the western suburbs crazy
Your dad gave you good memories for life, and you’re passing the effort on to your son. Well done, because it’s the only thing that matters for our kids! ❤️
I had to force myself not to skip the long ads lol just a habit. Good on you Tyler, I offered to head up and help the guys at Drifta to sand bag and stuff but then my local SES got smashed so we helped down here instead. So many hard working people doing awesome stuff to make there communities safe.
I was happy to watch the ads to help raise money, but 1 ad was 2mins, the next was over 26mins!! That’s longer than your video! Sorry couldn’t do it, had to skip
Brilliant story and fab ending. He’ll be telling that for a long time to come! Sorry to see the devastation over there …. Hope ppl were able to pick up the pieces
Such an awesome story...whats meant to happen will happen..such is life..keep doing what you doing👍👍👍
You're a bloody legend Tyler...👍...I live in Tinonee over the other side of the Manning River from Taree and Wingham...We got smashed as well...My family is ok were on higher ground but the whole East coast got smashed...Our hearts go out to all affected by the floods...❤❤❤...

Thanks mate, glad you're enjoying the videos!
You can pick Luke and his 'thumbs up' anywhere... a great story.
Tell them to buy a series Land Rover if they want to knock your Nav😁.
Your car is YOUR choice, and you have to live with the consquince of that choice.
My ride is a Gen 2 Paj V6, I suffer the high cost of fuel abuse.
Luke seems like such a genuinely good guy. From helping a father and son to raising money for his flooded community, he just keeps on keeping on.
Hi Mate,
Firstly good on you donating to a good cause helping community.

Yep it sure was bad mate
Great story and episode mate. #Frong 😂

Need to work something out!
Watched the whole video on UA-cam premium floods have been devastating here In the Hastings area
Amazing story about Luke. Flood videos were emotional as well. How many extreme events we all have gone through in such a short time.
Good on ya Garry ya bloody legend 👍
that rylestone to putty track was an awesome track, such a shame it got locked up.
I'll replay many times after watching, If we all did that it might help, Idk. I like your story about Luke & Dutchy and could see it made your eyes watery. Cool vid Ty.

Loved the Drifta history! That last video was king FRONG, I had to go to the comments, I was likely surely I'm not the only one hearing that.
Good one Tyler, ads all watched ⏳😕👍🏼
Thanks mate 🙏
Nice story mate, it's certainly a small world.
I think Luke from Blayney should sponsor RoamingNurses from Blayney haha
Flood level at Kindee Bridge at Ellenborough (40km upstream of Wauchope) was 12.60m in 1888.
