It's obvious that you're proud of your wife, and so you should be. I hope you enjoyed your holiday.

[@MotoSwagger]

Great to see you both, she's a patient person what with all the camera usage you do 😉 Drive safe for the rest of your trip!

[@northwestrider369]

In 2017 when we had it in America. I grabbed my welding helmet, walked outside and looked up. Saw it for 5 seconds, said “cool”. Then went back inside about my business.

[@RidingWithTom]

I hope to never be that depressing

[@northwestrider369]

@@RidingWithTom that’s why I love your videos. Keep the adventures coming.

[@Rabody]

I came her to learn all the about the Ranger Raptor, but i found my self watching all your videos.. love your natural style. keep the cool videos going

[@billcotton1551]

You had a perfect clear sky to see it. Well worth the trip.

[@davidgoodbadandugly]

Boom

[@JabboRockets]

I saw the eclipse near cairns in 2012 and oh boy.. What an experience. Truly something special

[@jaredtanner2738]

Love your vids mate, and this one was extra cool. Seeing a total eclipse is absolutely indescribable and I know photos and videos don’t do it justice. I was in Casper, Wyoming for the total in 2017. Supposedly it was the longest duration in all of the world. Absolutely insane. The temperature dropped and it was a sunset/rise in every direction. I was lucky that I lived there at the time and I’ll never forget it.

[@thomascurlin6151]

I'm so glad you and your wife made the drive to see that, it's truly a once in a lifetime experience. Did you notice any stars out when the sun was 100% covered? I saw the eclipse on August 21st 2017 in Grand Rivers Kentucky, which was in the path of complete coverage. Oddly enough the next eclipse on April 8th 2024, Grand Rivers Kentucky will again be in the path of complete coverage. Even better, it's only a 5 hour drive for me! I plan to see two eclipses in my lifetime from the same place!!

[@wobblysauce]

It is interesting with the pathing

[@MarcLaneAus]

great timelapse at the end.

[@lostagain2992]

Never bail! 👍💪

[@soilsmanadv6673]

I watched one in the late 1970's it is amazing..

[@thev87]

Hows going gents!!!! Yo Tom! I've been watching your videos since your 1st BMW S1000RR, can you PLEASE get '23 version and make some more videos riding it???

[@trailrideadventures]

awesome

[@bloggs24]

Been looking forward to this video, made a last minute viewing box in order to watch it (partial eclipse from NSW) the live streams were awesome. Careful setting up your camping spot underneath gum trees, they're called widow makers for a reason.

[@megamindtvsydney3967]

Nice ! Great effort mate fuel would not off been cheap …

[@TimCz83]

Saw the 25L/100km and it made me want to cry…

[@marcusrwalker]

I was there, yeah words or video cant explain to anyone how full on it was.

[@JJO117]

Lol wondered if I saw you at some point, not many Raptors in Perth. It's even rarer in blue.

[@toddnewman4530]

What gas consumption are you getting on the open road with that setup/ windage. Good vids , keep up the good work fella

[@paulwhitehand828]

Awesome view mate. Been studying 4wds think you have convinced me with the Raptor. Looks like I’m selling my Mustang. Can I ask how much fuel you are getting per tank and how many fuel drums are you carrying. Cheers.

[@toadfish2]

How the hell do you get the missus to do 1100km in a day? The max I have ever managed was 650!

[@andred4891]

Most north western point , steep point is most western

[@marksummers496]

Can I borrow the Ranger?

[@marcboriss187]

Hi Tom Did your wife look into the sun without her eye protection? It looks like it at 14:43 It was pretty reckles. She should immediately go to a eye doctor and check her eyes. IMMEDIATELY!!!

[@snills]

10:35 Dude if you put that in the video i'm going to be very upset... Well Sir Thomas, you have an upset wife I presume.

[@megamindtvsydney3967]

Amber colour or red led is good for night time - less bugs mate .
