[@BushKayakersCampingAustralia]

What a great film and lovely insightful narrative . We haven't been there for about 25 yrs and still yearn to return . The journey getting there is half the experience . the drive from uluru to Adelaide is amazing too

[@hellofromoutofplace]

Thankyou for your beautiful comment 😀 We hope you get the opportunity to return. Yes we too try to experience the journey to any location as fully as possible! We just took 10 days to drive up to QLD stopping along the way and it made it so pleasurable.

Love it Bonsssss & Sanso! Country is looking beautiful, lots of water around. Love the outtakes too. Can we have a vid of your camp/4wd set up one day please? ❤️🌈

[@hellofromoutofplace]

Thankyou legend! We love hearing what you’ve enjoyed! Yes, we will deliver on the camp/4wd setup video👍🏼

[@Challenger4WD]

Wow! I loved the pace of this video. Well done. I’m surprised the campground is still called Ayers Rock? 👌

[@hellofromoutofplace]

Thankyou so much for taking the time to comment, it’s very appreciated!! We are so happy to hear you enjoyed the video and the pace of it. It is a shame they’ve not changed the colonial name, just as governments and councils have failed to do right across this continent. These decolonising actions are happening at a snails pace. But of course we can all play a part in progressing things, simply by using the traditional place names ourselves 😊 Hope you enjoy our Part 2 coming soon!

​@@hellofromoutofplace The local Anangu are the rightful owners of Uluru and the area surrounding it, with the resort wholly owned by an Aboriginal corporation. If they thought it necessary to change the name they would have but are happy to recognize Ayers as part of the recent history of the area. Nothing to do with the government.

[@Challenger4WD]

@@philelliott5327 it just struck me as strange but I guess it is part of the colonial history. 😀

Great content and which roof rack do you installed?

[@hellofromoutofplace]

We are so happy to hear you have enjoyed it 😊😊 It’s the ARB Base rack. Absolutely loving it, very light, strong, stylish and modular. No wind noise at all with the wind deflector attached, also from ARB.

[@outandabout_oz]

such a special place✌🏻

How does your jimney go on the highway with over taking and fuel consumption?

[@hellofromoutofplace]

Hi Natasha! When i first bought it it was a little bit terrifying on the highway. But after i upgraded the suspension to the Old man emu lift kit (ARB), changed the tyres to all terrains and added some weight with bull bar and roof rack it now sits quite well on the road and feels more like a little truck. The suspension and tyres upgrade made a huge difference to the overall handling and stability on the highway and in the wind. Mine is a manual transmission so i have a bit more control over pushing it in regards to overtaking, however i mostly sit around 100km max on the highway as that feels the most safe and comfortable. I am usually the one being over taken 🤭 With all the modifications my fuel consumption is now 9.2 km/L and i’m getting around 370kms out of the stock 40 litre tank. Swag on the roof rack creates more drag and tends to make the fuel consumption a bit worse too. (Melissa)

[@pematamang9268]

Great content. Are you still driving Jimny?

[@hellofromoutofplace]

Thankyou!! We sure are but…. change is a comin’ 😉

[@nicolasandercock218]

so beautiful.

[@hellofromoutofplace]

Thankyou for commenting! So glad you enjoyed 🥰

[@pw510577w]

Hi, I'm considering buying a manual Jimny. There seems to be a lot of people buying them new then selling them soon after. Are there any issues I should be aware of? I've owned a Sierra before, which was a fun car, a bit basic, but I liked it.

[@hellofromoutofplace]

Hi there! Apologies for the delay in reply 😊 The manual is the best option in my opinion. Possibly people are selling due to not realising all the other quirks of the vehicle, rather than the transmission type. They are quite underpowered and blow around in the wind a lot on highways when they are stock without modified suspension and wheels/tyres. A two inch lift kit (I have the old man emu lift kit suspension upgrade) and some all terrain tyres makes it feel much more stiff and solid and safe. I love the manual Jimny and there is definitely nothing wrong with it. Feels like a fun little truck! - Melissa

[@matthewpiper4328]

Id say people sell them, as new they are ~35000, used with low km's are selling for over 40k because of the wait time for a new one.

[@GULNARTIRES]

Awesome 👍 congrats frm 🇮🇳

[@hellofromoutofplace]

Thankyou!

[@pematamang9268]

Do you still driving Suzuki Jimny?

[@hellofromoutofplace]

Hi there! Apologies for such a delayed reply. I still have it but I have recently purchased a campervan to be able to sleep inside and work from my vehicle on longer adventures. I will be selling the Jimny sometime over the next month, very sad to let go of it because it has been so fun and I really love it but cannot keep two vehicles unfortunately (Melissa)

[@zakeradadabhai9289]

Not a good off road vehicle... Next time go for good one
