Deep in the Outback Solo in a Land Cruiser 2.0 @ASPWexperience

[@leonlevstik]

Well, Andrew, I don't have a chance for overlanding, not even in a normal car just travel is impossible at the moment. Might change in the future. But your videos get my heart pumping again. Thank you for them. Unfortunately at the moment, I can't support you more than just watch your videos. But I am getting there

[@placesweexplore]

We are doing the same trip in parts next year and are very thankful for your videos. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪

[@Gerkhin]

Thank you Andrew. Love coming on the trip with you and looking and feeling all the ups and downs, the minutiae and bits and pieces that comes with overlanding.

[@Herbstfalke_Naturfotografie]

What a wonderful video... yes and those thoughts of aging or what ever life situation... this is for me combined with overlanding. When you drive and fall into a meditative mood... then your suck all the energy out of our adventure. And this will not happen at home, there is always something... does not mean something bad but something. You are cut off everything and you are in the moment. This is one fundamental pillar of overlanding for me.

[@alexandrosr5179]

The last 20minutes of your video is exacly my thoughts about age and phones...very human video this one,thanks!

[@trevorhicks7852]

Yes, get off phones!!! I learned that from watching this video on my phone! And this comment I sent from my... Love all your vids, Andrew. A morning coffee watching an Overland-Workshop on my....D'OH!

[@steph9445]

You know what he means though right? You understand the fundamental concept?

[@trevorhicks7852]

@steph9445 I'm hoping that I understand the fundamental concept, Steph. My comment was a light hearted and friendly attempt to point out the irony that Andrew was criticising the overuse of phones ("get off your phones!!!"), when he himself makes his living from people watching his videos, more often than not I'm guessing, on their phones!! Hoping, Steph, you might be reading my reply on a non electronic device somehow, especially not your phone!

[@davidmilledge221]

Love being on my own its the best therapy sometimes 😊

[@runesteinsnnkristoffersen5641]

A good tour , and a good storyteller I have a good time with both 1 & 2

[@teamsaurer]

Schönes Video. Guten Rutsch !!!

[@brick4x48]

You taking the piss out of us London lads😂 I enjoy your videos

[@huss1205]

That Michael Caine style of talking was awesome at the start of the video...

[@2UZFE]

Cheers Andrew , have a great new year . Looking forward to more content 👍🍻

[@Daniel_j_cro]

What a great video. I like the length of it. And really like that little chat at the 50min mark about living in the moment. And enjoying family. You have created such a good environment for yourself. Keep it up. Good to see you happy. And doing what you love. Also I have a troopy coming early 25 and I’d be interested in this new alloy setup you were talking about

[@wvideoyahoodk]

You had my attention in this video. BUT - when you started talking about “old age” (I’m 63) i started listening so much. Don’t know if I’m old ? Don’t feel like it ! I know your thoughts. Could write alot. A 90 year old mom who has lost the will to live………Makes you think about how you spend the rest of your life. 4x4 ! Been driving a Land Rover 1980 for years. Just bought a Jimny 2024. First brand new car ever. Not important what 4x4 it is. But it makes me smile……You’re so right. Get out. Live your life. Love your children - but remember to live while you can. Not to mention your thoughts about phones……. Think I’ll hire somebody the next time my wooden house in the forest has to be painted. Life is too short to fall from a ladder. A good important point. Lots of love from Denmark ❤

[@billywestley9008]

Andrew, well said, I agree, make an effort to enjoy the time with your loved ones, I have recently lost my wife, she was my companion and navigator on our adventures, oh yes I am so happy we enjoyed our trips, and did so at any and every opportunity.. unlike you I preferred company on my trips, and am now content we did so. And yes the frailty’s of getting old.. I am old, and you touched a nerve with your comments, and your very wise counsel.. get rid of the phones.. learn to enjoy the moment of “ here and now” thank you for another great episode, Best Regards

[@BorisEkner]

49:37 At some place I read about an overland couple who met a retired husband & wife overlanding in the Americas. Some years later the couple met the husband again, but now without his wife. The wife passed away a few years ago, but the now 80 something year old husband continued overlanding because what else would he do, he asked. ❤️

[@steph9445]

Ohhh finally!! A trip video! More of these please!

[@aspwexperience]

seriously? Mate. Subscribe and click the notifications bell. I do several trips like this every year. This is 3 years old.

[@keithmatthias4348]

Really enjoyed the audiobook section. Know exactly what getting older and failing health means, but no regrets. It is what it is. Not useful looking backwards all the time.

[@BorisEkner]

54:39 Trips like these is what I plan to do when I retire. Going places in Central America. I’ve started, but as I’m employed by a multinational corporation I have to accept weekend trips and only a few longer ones, as of now. - I long for my retirement when I can focus of my overland interests only. I have a few more years of employment, and then I want to enjoy my last years exploring Central America and its wonderful culture.

[@ThanasisZ]

03,.35 - 03.45 and a bit further : "Umimited Power!!!" Good ole Palpati✊n :) Good show mate, I enjoy keep it up, and remember that it makes sense to do these videos because you were never 63, you are now and you will never will be again. So have a blast as you are! I m a fan of overlanding and yours because you are a good story teller. 40 years of babbling on the tele and shows have their wieght and size. Why Hide? All ma best keep it up annd be safe at what you do!

[@grahamwilkins2499]

But I can only comment on my phone lol. Great seeing these for a second time , thanks for the reminder I need to get out there . Was hoping to do some with my wife but unfortunately not to be ( limited time really close to home). Thanks

[@Queensizemusic]

Brilliant opening. 😂😂

[@stefanstrantz3220]

Vielen Dank Andrew!

[@BorisEkner]

49:15 From the bottom of my heart, please have a physical checkup made. Somewhere, a long time ago, right or wrong, I read an article that provided proof that all people with a heart condition in the making have a skin fold on their ear lobs. You have it on both. Please, have a complete physical checkup made with focus on your heart.

[@Bannedone3ice]

15:18 That rattling would drive me mad, especially if it is new vehicle. But must be the extra equipment that is rattling I suppose ?

[@Manny_G_10]

Love your videos Andrew, I’ve been really trying to find the song you’ve used starting at 21:30. Is it exclusive?

[@aspwexperience]

I found it on the artlists.io platform.

[@magicalvortex]

Many car owners have at least 3rd party fire and theft car Insurance and some have full comprehensive car insurance. Hope that answers your question Andrew.

[@snakeB8]

Would that depend in where the vehicle ¨caught¨ fire?

[@simonhjc]

Bet you prefer this troopie to the 4 cyl in terms of v8 v 4 cyl. Manual v auto.

[@marcindomik8975]

As always: fantastic video! I have one question, bit trivial I suppose, but I am quite curious... I often see you have a bottle of beer. A bottle, not a tin. Being extremely conscious about all these payload/weight issues, also rubbish disposal in the outback and so on, aren't bottles rather problematic compared to tins? I travel around Europe, I barely ever experience vast uninhabited areas, I'm not even close to what you have in Australia, so it's just out of curiosity... Regards, M. D.

[@aspwexperience]

I drink a beer so rarely, that I don't have to carry a lot. And I far prefer the ritual, and taste of beer from a bottle. Cans though, would be far more practical.

[@nicholastaylor8154]

Good music choice

[@Wines2Buy]

Andrew, good morning. Currently in northern Thailand driving from Australia to Europe. A quick question, what do you use for the satellite positioning that you send each morning?

[@aspwexperience]

Yellow Brick.

[@belindalouise7587]

It’s a shame you don’t have this v8 troopy anymore……beautiful rig

[@deriusnorris4463]

Lekker

[@Bannedone3ice]

18:09 Wow !! Did someone take their sedan there ? Must be high on something strong…..

[@FreddyTalisha]

Thank you so much for this amazing video! I need some advice: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?

[@veneratedmortal4369]

Interestingly my family doesn't really like the butcher bird because they are a bit territorial and scare the other birds away. Also there was a small background noise in the beginning, most people probably couldn't hear it on their phone and it was only mildly annoying but it was there.

[@Bannedone3ice]

18:13 Wonder which brand sedan that is….. why is it there on the outback track. Doesn’t look like modified sedan for off roading.

[@aspwexperience]

This is Western Australia, and this is on a main road between towns, many hundreds of kms apart. The water tank is in case anyone breaks down. And I think its a Corrolla.

[@davidmilledge221]

Them recaro seat covers are they good or am i better off getting the cheaper kings ones and saving money , im cruising around in a work truck with Isuzu seat covers and they are falling apart dont last long them , and i want a good set for my 4x4 , and the Isuzu ones looked good quality from the start but hmm , then theres black duck 🤔??

[@Bannedone3ice]

How much is the cost difference, if you don’t mind me asking. In my country, we get to choose the fabric or leatherite made to measure.

Do you know how to make a Yorkshire Pudding? My Grandparents made them absolutely Beautiful. Wish I could do it

You don‘t Need a moskitoprotection in the back ?

[@dualcablowlux]

you miss that V8 and troopy more than you know

[@KevinNiven]

How often do you use it in 4 wheel drive?

[@aspwexperience]

Often. Very often. On a gravel road over 60kph, I'm in four-wheel drive. Rough bush track, I'm in 4-wheel drive. I believe 4-wheel drive is not for when one gets stuck. Its for safety, and prevents one from sliding, skidding, loosing traction and additional steering control especially at high speed (gravel only) and prevents bogging down in boggy situations and climbs.

[@crt269]

Andrew, this is the first time I have noticed a gear drive type sound within the camera on the tripod? Why is that?

[@Bannedone3ice]

13:59 I see Andrew. But don’t the older diesel engines like the ones in the 80 series Land Cruiser require more than 30 seconds to warm up ? I was under the impression that diesel engines of that era require longer start up time to get to operating temperature.

[@Hightop_tlc]

30 seconds, not enough... 30 minutes is too long. With my 1hz troopy I do about 1-2min in summer, maybe 5 in winter and baby it initially (until temp needle moves) to allow all fluids to warm up. That and preventative maintenance and 5k servicing has given me trouble free motoring and a car that's healthy as it was a decade ago

[@emu4wd]

Have you ever created a set up/hints for wagon owners eg Toyota Landcruiser? Steve 🇦🇺

[@aspwexperience]

Yes. Done this for over 25 years. Check out overland-workshop.com

[@crt269]

Can you confirm the brand of the mosquito bite gadget please Andrew, that looks like a great piece of kit.

[@aspwexperience]

I would but not very effective.

[@DrBenWiles]

Regarding telling if someone is lying (38m), if it's a politician, they are lying if the mouth moves.

[@trevorhicks7852]

Busted my guts and killed my body renovating everyone's homes that didn't want to climb ladders and walk on roofs. This forced retirement has now enabled me to go overlanding and travel, something that other peoples' demands didn't give me opportunity to do in my working life. Love retirement!!!

[@nicholastaylor8154]

If a car sits in the middle of nowhere it will always burn when a fire comes through

[@terry2833]

Hi Andrew im a long time watcher however i have had little comments to you. Love your trips indead very interesting, Just a commne if I can what wtach are you wearing if this is not a rude question. My guess its either an Omega Seamaster or Rolex. Cheers mate. Oh if you do one thing please get a bowel test done each year, it could safe your life.

It's finally happened?..........................Andrew has gone 'Troppo'...

Sometimes the broken down car is bùrnt in a passing scrub fire but most times its a stollen vehicle when runs out off fuel burn it to hide the fingerprints , its normally a native thing to do

People light wrecked cars on fire for fun. I think it’s as simple as that, sadly.

[@lastknownlocation8760]

Warming your engine up damages your engine. Gosh you do talk some rubbish sometimes mate.

[@aspwexperience]

That is not what I said! What I said was, get engine to temp as fast as possible with low throttle settings. Any slower and the engine runs too cool and it cokes up. 30 seconds to 1 minute is all it takes. Warming an engine by idling for too long is very bad for it.

[@BubblesTheCat1]

You must be running out of stuff to post for uploading all this crap we've seen before. That's most probably why you've swopped the channel name's around. I hate crap I've seen before. Unsuɓsribing🤬
