    Tip on avoiding wanting to get the latest and greatest stuff/setup is to build your own. When you have a cool draw/shelf system or whatever in the back of the car/ute that you built, you take pride in it and you'll always have something that's different.

    I'm about to "CHANGE" my setup. Like how you're now thinking of Fred and his comfort. Good work. Setups generally need to change as our families grow or shrink, or our priorities change.

    Yes you are allowed to change your draw setup. Your needs have changed massively and your vehicle/setup needs to adapt accordingly. For your roof rack lighting, get some RGB "party" lights and set them to whatever colour temp you need 😊😊😊

  • @outbackAus260
    @outbackAus26010 ай бұрын

    A good quality low profile and bright light for the roof rack would be a Stedi Micro V2 7.2" light. Stedi also does a slim bracket for it designed for Rola or other roof platforms that will allow you to mount them underneath your wing awning. This is my recommendation for you wanting to CHANGE your current area lights. I went with the lower kelvin models to reduce the bugs attracted to the usual bright white LED lights around camp.

    Love listening to you talk about your rig (which is awesome). I wish there was a way to get your thoughts on the Rivian R1S. I took delivery of mine October 2022 and I absolutely love it. The extra storage in the front truck (where the engine normally goes) and the extra storage in the back where the gas tank normally goes is absolutely brilliant. It already came with 35” tires, but you can change the tire size to your heart’s desire, because there is not gearing to worry about. You can tap into all the electrical power you want, sure it reduces your range…but let’s be real, you’re talking about maybe 3-5 miles for tons of cooking or powering your fridge. You don’t need a diesel heater, you just set the climate control to whatever you want to sleep at. Disadvantages: charging infrastructure (not so bad in the States, especially when you factor in RV camp sites and towing (which I don’t do).

    Change whatever you need on the Prado. Needs continually change especially when the family grow and get bigger. I wouldn't worry if things aren't available after 10 years as products and companies continually change. Was looking at the celfi and was thinking about the gme antenna also. What conditions do you find it's improved in (specific terrain etc.)

    Maybe go modular?. That works for me in the fortuner. 2 draws/camp kitchen in one trip. Draws out, electric scooters in the next etc. Weekender trips, take a good esky and leave the 12v fridge at home. For me, being a musician also forces you to go modular, as a drumkit, guitar amp just won't fit in a fixed set up. With this set up, naturally went with a portable lithium 100amh 12v solution for the fridge, and I have a couple of little companion rover 40amh to run lights, charge phones etc
