Finally, is all i can say. Thank you for showing me Australia is still alive and kicking. I love your Australianism, showing life in Australia. Don't change, you are Australia to its core. Never stop showing what you can achieve and your passion. you and your family are true Australian iconic legends.

Always had a soft spot for Okas. Fitting one out would be a dream come true.

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Thank you so much 😀

[@michaelguerin56]

Nice vehicle, Karstan. This video reminds me of my Unimog training in New Zealand, several decades ago. Our trucks had the proper size tyres, unlike the cheaper undersized tyres that the Australian Defence Force purchased. This experience is obviously far more special for you, because it is your own brand new vehicle. I wish you and your family many happy kilometres of driving.

[@nickk5731]

Love it. Cant believe its been two yrs since first saw the frame wow. I was smiling at Karstans excitment and joy of it lol. Congratulations guys. Cant wait to see your new adventure vids 😊 Love ya family and lifestyle

[@old-wookie]

Good on you for feeding your baby the GOOD STUFF 🤟👍

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

❤️🙌🏻😄

[@hugonoijens1842]

Brings back memories... I had one of these things over 20 years ago. It was incredible then. Now they're even more better. Bigger motors, auto trans... Although they still look pretty much identical... I took mine to some pretty incredible places then...

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Amazing to hear !

[@edwardfletcher7790]

Have you never been in a big 4WD before mate ? Huge tires and good articulation make a massive difference ! Strongly suggest you join a 4WD Club to learn how to best use the vehicle. Learning the vehicles limitations will help you avoid damage and keep from getting stuck. It would be a wise investment. I love the hard core way these rigs are built, they're mining grade vehicles, totally different from a standard production line vehicle. You don't have space to waste on an indoor shower, that's CRAZY....

[@fairyfeet1602]

Hi Guys Great to see you back. The wife and I missed your enthusiasm and energy on KZbin, whilst you took a break. Excited for you both in 2024, not just for the truck but new addition to the family! Congrats! James and Liz from Sunny Coast Qld

So while you were walking us through, I was mentally adding up the vehicle cost, the cost to set up the living area. Have a reasonable idea what that involves.

Great to see you guys back. I've missed your enthusiasm, Max's beautiful smile and all the fantastic places you visit. The Oka looks like she'll offer you plenty of good times.

Welcome back K&M, happy days, I've been looking to see when you were coming back. I thought you may have done some vids on the house rehab over the last year, but I'd think you'll have been busy and with Maxie having the new child would have been a great occasion, a travel companion for Zuzu. Cheers guys great to be able to travel around with you once again.

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Thank you!

[@SUPERTRUCKER166]

So incase you didn’t know there are restrictions on both rear overhang and numberplate angles, so a push bike on the rear behind the spares won’t work legally, and the safe t cams will ping you on number plate angles. Same with speed since you are limited to 100kmh once your gvm is 4.5t or above, the average cameras fitted all in nsw/qld/vic are linked. As for the build out, probably worth talking to Tom at Ultrafab, he is in boolaroo, and has done a couple of custom built truck bodies and fitouts, infact he has mine getting done currently and is up for handover next week (it’s a dual cab canter)

[@stewnico]

Fantastic to see you guys back! What a magnificent machine, and (Western) Australian made... you've gotta be happy with that!
