  to get the fish up the cliff face we use a cliff gaff also named a flying gaff, its big hooks that are attached to a rope and it attaches to your fishing line and it slides down the line over the fish the gaff has 3 sometimes 4 like grappling hooks which catches into the fish then you pull the gaff up with the rope the rope takes all the weight of the fish, about 100 metres around the corner from the oven is a slightly lower section which you can use pole gaffs

  Hey there Just letting you know I get consistently 16.9 in my Y62. We only tow a camper trailer around 1.8 tonne so that would make a difference but that’s what we run . One thing is I don’t have larger tyres which I think makes a massive difference.

  I found using cruise control I got better economy. I was very surprised as using cruise control in my previous vehicles (prado’s) cruise control was shocking but the patrol seems to be better in selecting the right gear etc with out using manual mode like I did in the prado’s.

  We are full time on the road with a 2020 Y62. Towing a 3050KG 23' van. On this current trip weve done 3800 km's and average is 23.7/100. Im very happy and comfortable with that. I try ti use 95 ron where i can, but in the NT is either 91 or 98. Ive got a rack but not much on it right now. Tyres are the same set up, just more aggressive tyres 265's Maxxis. Stiffer rear springs by Dash off road. Im running an ARB Summit bar so a little extra weight there. Over all its a beautiful car to tow with and its effortless . Love the vids

  Hey guys! The modem definitely gets hot but has never had any issues, the Starlink in off grid situation normally uses about 5.5amps per hr. We normally switch it off before bed to avoid using to much power over night.

• 
  @shanenorwell85808 ай бұрын

  If anything you’re likely hurting fuel economy by trying to keep the revs so low, the reason I say this is the engine makes its peak torque at 4000rpm. Revs don’t equate to economy, engine load does and the further you are out of its torque curve the more load you’re applying to the engine.

  I have almost exact same setup as you! Just picked up van in last week but have been running 45PSI all round and 30psi in rear bags (have 4499kg GVM upgrade) as a good spot. I sat in 5th/6th gear on last trip, not sure what is most fuel economical, some suggest 5th as it keeps trans temps down. have you fitted an exhaust? Love the vids hope to see you out on the road some day!

  @i.m.peterrific9 ай бұрын

  Tyres obviously make a fairly big difference. Our Y62 is stock standard other than rear springs and airbags and our van weighs approx 3.3t loaded and we averaged around 22.5l/100km towing over 5,000km. On a good day, with a tail wind it dropped to just under 20, but that was a one off situation across the Barkly, so next to no hill climbs involved. We don't buy these for their fuel economy, but for their towing capability.

• 
  @birksbackyard9 ай бұрын

  💯 agree! We bought it for the capabilities not the consumption! Isn’t that funny we did a 33.5L on the Barkly cause of a headwind. Thanks for watching mate

  @@birksbackyard Ouch! 33.5! I've been fortunate enough to never hit 30 even. Just lucky with the weather I guess. You do learn to never over estimate your capability when it comes to distance. Maybe I'll invest in a jerry can or two for our next trip 🤔
