my wife and i are going on our trip ,perth to townsville via karratha ,gibb river road and darwin end of july .its costing a fortune ,3 months worth of long service and annual leave but the killer is paying the mortgage while we're gone .looking forward to seeing your videos /photos here needless to say stay tuned for videos of ours in a few months,probably under something like kimberly holiday... have a great trip!!!
The same troopie running 6.5 V8 diesel, auto, coil spring conversion, and other assorted $1000's of wasted money sunk into it that should have been retired 100.000 km ago lol
Sure! Actually we will probably require another vehicle to join us in some sections. We have found in the past that for some of the harsher tracks to get a access permit they insist on at least 2 vehicles in case one has problems. As for the map "thingo". It was time consuming, as is all things video making. I'm a draftsman so I know my way around AutoCAD. I made several still shots with and without text and coloured route lines over an image map file. You could do the same in any software.
AWESOME!!!! My wife and I will get the oppurtunity to travel around Australia one day!! First thing first though......buying our home (second marriage)
I am not in Sydney so I didn't know. Should I change the music? I was going to use Avalon by Juliet until I listened to the lyrics and it basically was about taking a holiday away from the relationship. I sill like the song though!
Unbelievable MrYowie, I hope in your travel budget covers the cost of a new 4WD. We will catch up with you either September or October for a week or two on the WA leg.
No money for new Troopy but she will be retired at the end of this huge trip.
Awesome! love to catch up :) Still plenty of time left but start putting some thought into what you would like to see and when and we see if we can work something out to suit everyone buddy :) Did we not plan a trip something like this in 1969? lol
When you need to get money off everything you buy then you cannot usuallly afford expensive purchases but I do and my channel shows how you can too.

The plan is starting to come together but don't know how we are going to pay for it yet lol
A large portion of the trip will be on tough outback 4x4 tracks :)
