I'm limited by how many WOW"s I can say without sounding trite, but this is super impressive. What an amazing rig this has turned out to be. Big Dog Builds and Off Road Creative have delivered what must be Australia's best off road and kitted out 4x4. Very keen to follow the travels.

Wow, such a sensational build Dean and the team! Honestly such an awesome rig! I do love how Dean doesn't need anything to use the Multi-function Oven but Miriam is on a step! Suspect mine will be a little easier with a 2 inch lift and me being 6 foot 3! Would be great to get some weights data on this one as well. I know I am a little nervous even with the 5.5t GVM about the weight of the boat and motor. Knowing that ADU know there stuff makes me a little more confident that it is all going to be within weight limits but.

The only unfortunate thing for these guys is this house on wheels will never gain in Value. In 10 years it’ll go from a $450k investment to probably $70k But it’s not my money, 💰 they obviously have the financials to pay for it. And it’s there design/style that they paid for. If it was easy we would all have one so good luck with the big rig I do however pray for the transmission. Hopefully it doesn’t go bang like most of the Chev’s

Can't believe everything watched was unobtainium, one-off except for supplier furnished bolt-on gear. Its not even usable without stilts or ladder step stool. Come on Mate, tell us your design brief requirements based on road warrior failures. Its not even a good tow pig bouncing on bags now
@bigdogbuilds2 ай бұрын
"Unobtainium is a term used to refer to a material that cannot be accessed. Such a material might be rare, prohibitively expensive, controlled or simply nonexistent. A common observation about unobtainium is that it meets all requirements perfectly, other than not actually existing." Yet we build 5 per week like this.... alot of people touring Australia, doing the trip of a life time with thier families.

@@bigdogbuilds no doubt. AUS supply chain validates that 5/wk claim. Actually envious Australians have such a strong Outdoor Adventure brand going. BUT as an American, Chevrolet officanado, ex 5th wheel tower and Mohave desert rat - that ¾ ton isn’t the tow pig he thinks. It’ll grind through brakes, bearings and pads so quickly. Not to mention the airbag assist that only hardens the caravanning. She’s a sweetheart in front of a camera but so much of that isn’t able to transfer when she can’t use it without a step up onto something. Nothing wrong with any of the kit - going American 6”+ lifts just means Australians have to rejig their canopy engineering to accommodate human-sized usage ala fridge dropdown glides.
