As an adventure Motorcyclist we have become masters in packing only what we need. All lubricants and sprays come in smaller sizes and of course you can restock along the way. Over the years we have really reduced all things to the minimum. However we are also preparing our own 4wd adventure vehicle so always find your presentations extremely informative and enjoyable to watch. Many thanks

Catch can filter? Maybe a coffee filter would so in a pinch? Fuel filter? Change it before a big trip. Air filter? Maybe just use compressor to blow out a dirty one if it gets clogged 👍

Pro-tip; lose the toolboxes (metal and plastic) and get a good tool roll. I get it, I'm OCD about tools too. But if you keep the tools down to the most common and keep them in a good canvas roll you will reduce the weight and size/volume down drastically. And because you have less volume you can keep the weight even lower. Best wishes!

Sounds like an exciting new year ahead :) When it comes to what you need to carry, do ye really need to carry all the different oils? Oil can be quite heavy and if everything is fully topped up before you leave then maybe just a small amount for emergencies. Also the same with the filters, in Europe there is really no danger of getting bad fuel or a lot of dust blocking up air filters. And we are all guilty of carrying around far more heavy tools than we ever need. However, i do get the idea of better to be prepared! My worst fault is carrying around lots of fuel, which i rarely need. On the subject of the ads, i agree that it's not a lot of time and is a small price to pay for excellent content and entertainment. I will share something a young car enthusiast from the US told me, apparently if you watch just 20 seconds of the ad the content creator gets paid just as if you had watched the full ad. Might be easier to convince people to watch twenty seconds! Happy New Year from Ireland :)

Every "overlander" needs to do this. I have seen the trend is to be burdened down with more stuff and more stuff!!! The whole idea in the beginning was to get out, enjoy and be one with nature and feel good with what you have. Now it is saturated with buy this and buy that, placate sponsors and just weigh the rig down. I get it being comfortable while being out for a long time but seems people are getting away from the whole idea of less is more. Nice job and Happy New Year.
@offtrackfamily2 жыл бұрын
It's difficult to know what's usefull and not without going out there. And if you haven't set your priorities between comfort vs tools & stuff & knowledge to get you out of a bad situation, this is where it can go wrong. I agree, the main purpose of overlanding is exploring & enjoying fun time outdoors, and it should always be that :)
