Excellent discussion and an amazing journey. Thanks to both of you for this interview.

[@L2SFBC]

Glad you enjoyed it! Please share :-)

[@IDontTalkToCops]

Excellent interview. Thanks gents. What a beast of a machine.

[@woollywoolwoolz]

"Australians are noted for massively overloading their vehicles" you hit the nail on the head there mate! You see them everywhere here, even in the big cities going to the supermarket with fully loaded 4WDs like it’s the zombie apocalypse. 😂

[@lazios]

I didn't know Iveco has a bad reputation in Australia; in Europe (Germany included) it's considered, on every aspect (build quality, reliability, value money etc) one of the best manufacturers.

[@kathyl67]

Great chat and interesting information about insurances and other restrictions.

[@frankamatophoto]

Great discussion Robert especially Marcus's comments regarding reliability and tyres.

[@L2SFBC]

Thank you!

[@uhuprzem]

Fantastic video. I've followed their adventures for quite some time. Well done!

[@L2SFBC]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@wheelhouseadventures8176]

Well Thanks To both guys

[@KlajniKleiner]

Fantastic movie!

[@kozmicsurfer1396]

great interview

[@jenswinkelmann6666]

Great Q+A. I have been following Marcus for a bit and enjoyed his detailed infos. Hope to be able to start our travel in about 4 yrs, also in an Iveco 4x4 if plans work out :)

[@L2SFBC]

Thanks, please let us know how you go!

[@jimmcgettigan1326]

Great story.

[@Querenciatv]

I like your shots! Great video. 😊

[@L2SFBC]

Thank you! 😃

[@MrNikrulesu]

Very informative video. Loved it !

[@L2SFBC]

Thanks please share

[@RobertVinet]

Fascinating discussion. I could have listened to Marcus for much longer. Cheers!

[@MeMurphy10Feb]

[@L2SFBC]

[@Falcon_Overland]

Great video. Cool tire size 255/100r16

[@alexanderj4545]

Great video.

[@L2SFBC]

Thanks please share 👍

[@tomhannah4811]

I saw them in Ecuador and he is right about the bus drivers

[@chrigdichein]

that was absolutely perfect 👍🏽 right on the spot, and I say so traveling in a 6 ton Isuzu nps doing my own maintenance and upgrades. Please push a few more out of those. There are too many talking without knowing. Australia is a real test ground for 4x4. We do have heat, correlated gravel and we tow 3.5 ton rvs with 4x4 through sand. cheers from QLD

[@L2SFBC]

Glad it helped! Please share!

[@badgerpa9]

Texas has many Mexicans that drive like they are in Mexico. I don't know people that use "overlanding" but the youtubers that do are not talking about going from one state to another on the main roads. Most people I know still use offroad or 4x4 as what they are doing. I hope your travels are safe and fun.

[@CG-cx9fv]

Do not blame the Mexicans. American drivers are no better. As Marcus said, there are good and bad drivers everywhere.

[@badgerpa9]

You must not have driven in Mexico. Driving in Mexico is way different than the USA, they use the shoulder as a lane all the time, do not stop for stop signs and speed limits are not observed. If you drive like they do in Mexico in the USA you will cause accidents. People in USA do not expect a 2 lane road to be driven 4 lanes wide. @@CG-cx9fv

[@garethhayward7710]

Looks good the only problem is the brakes they are shocking

[@kozmicsurfer1396]

How much does this vehicle cost, please? And, what aboput fuel consumption?

[@L2SFBC]

Look up Iveco Daily in your country, then add 50% to the fuel consumption at least.

[@tianjohan4633]

I wonder why world traveler's are doing solo vehicle trips, and why not carry a trailer? I do get the extra fuel cost, but at the same time, you could carry your entire workshop in the trailer, bicycles, motorcycles, e bikes, kayak, surf board and what not.

[@L2SFBC]

A trailer + car is cumbersome, hard to reverse, and long.
