[@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.

[@raysher265]

Welcome back guys have so missed your travel videos can’t wait to see what you come up with

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Thanks for your patience mate! It’s great to be back

[@whatalotofhooey]

Can’t wait to see the fit out !!! So exciting for you guys ! 😘❤️

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Thanks mate!!

[@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....

[@055sos]

Best of luck with fitting this out for 4. cant wait to follow guys, best of luck with the mission.

[@bryanbadger6841]

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. Unknown would be cost to freight one across the ditch to here in Nz. Ok dreams cost nothing. Bloody awesome mate. Looking forward to the next chapter in your life's story. Thanks for sharing. And of course, welcome back. Cheers.

I wish you luck, but this video has brought back a flood of sometimes bad memories. I did 4x4 tours for 14 years in Oz. Drove the first OKA up north to Darwin and thought the Kimberley. I hope they have sorted a lot of the issues. Again good luck.

[@joel57123]

Great to see you guys back! I stumbled upon the Kombi in Newy a few months ago. What a great machine that is in person. But the Oka... I'll have to live my Oka dreams through you guys, only wanted one since I was a kid. Can't wait to see where you take it! Keep up the great work.

This has been a long time dream for us… we can’t wait to hit the road in the OKA it’s going to be incredible and take us to amazing places!!!!

Going to be epic! Have fun with the layout options.

Oh my gosh, shriek! I’m so excited to see you guys back here!!!! Idk why KZbin unsubscribed me?! I sure didn’t do it, but thankfully you showed up in my feed. I just cracked a beer and now I’m going to sit back and enjoy this video. cheers! 🍻

Hello there!

[@anthonyscolyer2444]

Wow do I envy you!! Just saw your utube bit on the side of something else and having wanted one of these since they first came out I am still wanting! Wanted a Holden Overlander when Arthur first put them out as well. Used to walk past his factory every day and drool through the roll a door onto the street and see what he had in there next. And I still have neither of them. Overlanders now are an unaffordable collector car and my wife would have nothing to do with an OKA. Siiigh

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.

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. Have you thought about having the rear row of seats on a slide, so you can move them all the way forward to increase floor space when parked up?
