Imagine, no morning coffees😢 The day wouldn't be the same. 😮 Sounds like nothing's changed with the opposite drivers. We actually passed a rolled camper on route to Drysdale when we went yrs ago & our mates travelling with us had to utilise the tyre bloke......😢his brand new Coopers didn't cut the mustard... Go the Maxxis Bighorns at the time!😉😂 Enjoy your well-earned 🍻 ❤

    Nothing wrong with leaf springs, did the GRR in 83 with leaves, and again in 18 and 21. Complexity brings failure points. One suggestion, get a set of tyre pressure monitors for the van, can save you $$$.

    Love the content guys! Was on the Gibb last year but the irony was it wasn’t the tour buses that concerned me, it was the road trains and…. You’ll hate to hear this but other caravan users! I was shocked at some of the speeds they were thrashing out. It was in the peak of the pandemic when the whole world seemed to have bought a van mind 😩 So it’s good to see you guys promoting care on our roads. I’d be interested to hear if you’ve see loads of toilet paper around? I was devastated to see how much trash the masses had left in some of the most spectacular scenery on the planet. Im hoping it has started to recover now that the boarders are open and the “entitled masses” can get back to their hotels! Safe travel guys, look forward to your content each day 😍

    Really enjoying this batch of videos. Well done Leah for your effort every day for us subscribers. Hubby and I will do the Gibb when they seal it all the way 😂, in our dreams lol. Our only problem and not sure if it’s just us, is the your voices sound when you are in the Nissan, it’s quite low and we struggle to hear it. It’s good when you are outside no problem there. Oh and that Coffee machine was a worry when sliding around on the sink. Hope it still works ok. We have one the same just a different name on it, such a great machine, we may even take it with us on our next trip, so long as it doesn’t put us over weight. 😊

    We travelled the Gibb in1997. Camped whole way with stock ford courier and probably way over loaded. It survived. But we constantly came across a couple of pomy back packers in a little Nissan sedan painted in mad cow trim, did all the creeks and corrugations and on to Kununurra.
