ROAMS01E17 How to Camp With A Suzuki Jimny! (2019)

[@RoamOverlanding]

There has been a lot of love for the new logo and sticker on the car! I've just opene a small store for those super fans out there who want to support and represent the channel! For a limited time I'm giving the devoted few a 15% discount with ROAM15 at checkout To be used here: teespring.com/stores/roam-store

[@mykeswaggins9330]

Very nice video and set up. Were you packing heat for self defense? I would never go camping without one

[@mateimoruz6632]

Where did you get those camping chairs?

[@kwaichuenlye2733]

Hi, really like the sliding storage system. could i get more details from you? am in TV production myself this could come in handy. Thanks cheers.

[@nitinshukla1370]

Can u tell me the songs name in the video

[@MrEscort17]

I have never left a comment on KZbin but had to say how much I enjoy your videos- you have a real talent.

[@RoamOverlanding]

I’m so glad you’ve been enjoying them bud!

[@craftbuildchill]

I used to own a 78 Suzuki LJ50 was my first vehicle in rural, Canada. Even back then was a very capable 4x4. After watching your videos and seeing how you've fitted your awesome Jimny with all the camping stuff. I've decided to buy one again and explore New Zealand. I went to buy one yesterday in Auckland NZ and I was told the earliest I can get one is next March 2020! Crazy but that will give me time to research all the camping gear and 4x4 accessories I want to add. Thank you for all your videos, and keep up the good work.

[@RoamOverlanding]

Wow man! thats such awesome news! Thanks for letting me know! Hopefully you will get loads of ideas from my builds then! :D

[@craftbuildchill]

So many things you've added I want to get as well, specifically a Feldon tent, suspension upgrade, roller stackable storage. I intend on pulling my fishing jet ski, which will be on a braked trailer as well. I've read it tow rating should be able to handle it, as the ski will weigh around 500KGs ish including the trailer. So keep the videos coming and thanks for the reply :)

[@StrangelyBrownNo1]

Slightly off topic, but thanks for answering everyone’s questions in the comments. One is the few comment sections on KZbin that ends up worth reading.

[@RoamOverlanding]

Hahah thanks for noticing! 😂👏🏻

[@splakacheus]

this couple is living the dream life with a dream 4x4! This is the life!

[@RaduGrigoriu]

This is pure art! The cinematography, the productions, the post-processing. Bravo! What a beautiful story too

[@RoamOverlanding]

I appreciate the kind words Radu!

[@RaduGrigoriu]

@@RoamOverlanding i wanted to tell you that since i discovered your channel yesterday, i have seen all of your videos. AMAZING. one thing is for sure. i am subbed and ready for more. keep them coming. also: what is the tire size on those BFs? thanks :)

[@RoamOverlanding]

Thanks so much Radu! I appreciate the support! The tyre size I currently have is 215/75/15; but after my lift I will be trying out 215/80/15 to give people more feedback on different sizes. So far I can say the 215/75/15 is very nice!

[@WesleySnlpes]

That awning is brilliant. Looks like just enough room for a tent and seats etc too.

[@flyingtiger4483]

It was an ideal camping style. Thank you for being healed. I am also planning to go to camp by buying Jimny Sierra.👍👍🇯🇵

[@RawLu.]

Owned what we called a Suzuki Samurai 4X4 here in Canada & was the best car I've ever owned, just bullet proof... hope the new product are still built as tough ;-)

[@RoamOverlanding]

From what I've heard it should be solid :D

[@craigsparks1442]

yes you can camp in a Jimny, did 4000km through Botswana, in the old jimny, was unstoppable but required some creative packing skills

[@RoamOverlanding]

Definitely creative packing skills 😂

[@germanou]

Great car. One of the most used car for offroading here in brasil. There are also some crazy supercharged versions

[@oaitsemoremi5657]

Watching this 2 years later, I realized that your camping gear has really evolved 👌

[@RoamOverlanding]

It’s definitely been a fun ride 😝

[@MrChamingunaratne]

I came back here 2 years later as well. This was such a great build series. Miss the Jimny!

[@Xphelon]

Sir....I totally dig your channel.....soothing and relaxing.

[@RoamOverlanding]

Thank you for tuning in! :)

Litteraly my dream car and dream situation to find myself in. Unfortunately I am stuck with 1985 golf for years to come.

[@curiouscase9040]

Great looking wagon, you guys have some interesting kit ,your admin in the field is on another level mate.

[@nitinshukla1370]

Can u tell me which song is this

[@dariovidarte2773]

I wish they sold the jimny in the U.S.

[@richardharker2775]

Yes. I'd like to know their reasoning why not. I can theorise but it would be interesting in the board room to hear the discussion.

[@ArcticSeraph]

They don't drink enough fuel for the US market.

[@REDGRIFFIN100]

@@ArcticSeraph actually we have a year waiting list in the UK as the numbers they can sell are restricted due to their emissions compared to suzuki's other "small cars". It's crap because anyone not able to buy a jimny will then go off and buy a larger 4x4 with higher emissions.

[@seenannilawer9480]

Even in India it's not available. 😰

[@RoamOverlanding]

Hahah! Well thanks so much for the kind words 👏🏻👏🏻

[@mobilmotornet1756]

I always love a 4x4 with nature scenery like this. Good car, good people, and good video.

[@RoamOverlanding]

✌🏻✌🏻 thank you so much!

[@sydgerald]

Finally the video I was waiting for mate! I found your channel looking for info about the new Jimny and I immediately subscribed. I really like your videos, the editing is spot on, I always wanted to see a camping video on your channel, I'm glad you made one, and specially a longer video this time ;) By the way, that escapade to the forest video is spot on mate, nothing like jumping into your jeep to connect with nature and stay away from the big cities! Keep up the good work, all the best from Chile!

[@RoamOverlanding]

Awesome! I’m glad you enjoyed it 😁 I’ll see you at one of the next ones 👍🏻

[@carlosnvlr]

[@RoamOverlanding]

Hoping to give you some inspiration :)

[@frankvandenberg3413]

Of course you can, I've been using my 1985 Sierra high top for nothing but camping, every time I visit Oz.

[@GOzoRAW]

Love that campfire! Awesome 👏🏼

[@bradmullaerialphotography]

Would love a jimmy and it’s great to see this one decked out soo well. I had to rewind several times to see where that table came from.

[@garrybrock6781]

Absolutely awesome guys. Really loved this . You showed you using the equipment. I want more, love your channel. And you're doing it in a JImny. Fantastic job. I'm in Australia, and your camping with Elephants and Giraffes, that's just mind blowing. I want more more more, cant wait until your next upload. Fantastic.

[@RoamOverlanding]

Thanks so much Garry! I told you something was coming for you 😉😉

[@klimraamkosie]

This video was packed to the brim!

[@RoamOverlanding]

Haha! I hope it was worth the time! :)

[@jacquesventer7776]

Awesome quality vid man! Pilansberg is simply amazing and luckily not too far from Joburg. My wife and I had some of our best camping experiences at that place.

[@RoamOverlanding]

Its such a special place! I love being able to see all of the section of the park in one day! I just wish it had some nice 4x4 trails

[@crashjose]

I just love this video, I'm from Panama and Jimny is sold out, we have to wait until July and the units comming are almost sold out, very nice setup 💥

[@TheMataleon06]

jose vivies rasss buay

[@keanur6541]

The slide where your dry food bags are on top of. Picture this.. If the bags are removed and you see the slide. On top of the slide is a table top that is fixed to it,so when you slide out you can lift and flip up the table part making the slide an extension kitchen(adding another 900mm or so. Beneath the table is a table leg for support. The bags only need to be removed when you want the extended table so it still functions exactly the way it is. And also you can make a custom canvas flap for the back of the jimmny,so you can keep the door open overnight and the slide table still out. Two zippers in the canvas flap for each tray to pass through that way the rest of the jimmny is closed up. I hope i explained it well enough to picture.

[@RoamOverlanding]

Good idea; I have a similar plan, but we will see if the idea comes to life or not

[@maximumcrumb]

Massive Jimny envy! Nice setup, thanks for the video!

[@dikxy6266]

Love this channel. I always waiting new video especially for the jimny experience, from Indonesia 😊

[@Aiden-0915]

I was wondering if anyone could camp in jimny. Wow mate you are so awesome

[@RoamOverlanding]

👏🏻👏🏻 glad I could answer your question!

[@rrphotography3600]

That awning is awesome. Should see if you can get a Darchy swag. Swags go brilliantly with awnings and one or two awning walls. It's amazing how much SA bush looks like Australian bush, just a fewer larger animals haha.

[@RoamOverlanding]

A few less Roo's and few more Rhino's :D

[@ishimy]

Hi, I am looking to get my 1st Jimny! Absolutely love your Channel. Makes me home sick! Ex-S.A. living in NZ. I have just one question right now. Should I buy an Auto or Manual? I can drive both! 😊 but can only afford one, thx

[@RoamOverlanding]

I think the Auto would be a great weekend warrior vehicle; I was always jealous of the guys with the Auto's when it got to offroad stuff; because of the lack of difflock, the auto just gives you a bit more control

[@ishimy]

@@RoamOverlanding Thank you, that really helps. I will be driving it to work daily from Clevedon to Auckland City and there is nothing else I know of on the market that would give me economy, reliability and be cost effective. The next thing would mean be adding another 20k and that is just too much. Can I please know the roof rack you used did it come custom or standard with the table? Because I am looking at weekday work car and weekend getting away for a day is their any roof rig easy on or off that would be great? In Auckland traffic you looking at a max spread of between 50 to 80km so I can’t see severe wind resistance that would affect fuel economy. Thx once again for the Jimny experience.

[@AVMD83]

Overral and as a daily commuter how is the jimny? Is the engine refined enough? How is the interior sound and rattling? Thank you .

[@RoamOverlanding]

A great little vehicle. I would do sound dampening and upgrade the factory speakers for an every day vehicle, and generally recommend upgrading the suspension. But there are no rattles or anything. It’s nice and small and the engine is quite fun

[@AVMD83]

Roam Overlanding thank you very much for your answere, does the jimny include a basic tool kit or spare tire tools like the jack and so ? Thanks

[@RoamOverlanding]

It has the basic Jack and tire tools, it’s under the rear most carpet by the tailgate

[@canusdominici]

I like the potential synergy of camping between SA and Oz. We each can benefit from knowledge and products of each other. Cf. 9:00

[@jonathangonzalez327]

[@MrAudisakawpyunuz]

BRO you are livin in my dream

[@HammerRocks]

You're set-up is looking sweet. I have an 80 Series Landcruiser with a Rhino-Rack Batwing 270° awning. It's one of the most useful accessory I have on my rig. And when I do a solo overnight travel, I simply set up a swag on top of a single camping stretcher under the awning. It's quick and simple. I love that BonBraai. I like how its compact when packed. Though I'd use it mostly for bonfires, not for cooking. I'm going to see if they sell them here in Australia as I'd like to get one. PS. What brand are you're chairs? I also like how compact they are when packed.

[@RoamOverlanding]

The BonBraai is exclusively available here in South Africa at the moment, if you know anyone with an outdoor store that side who is prepared to do a bulk order then they could probably get some out there! The chairs are from Frontrunner :)

[@nickyilliopolis8125]

[@RoamOverlanding]

Hahah!! This is the best comment! 😂😂

[@jimmyjimmy951]

Go for a roof top tent on the Jimny. Swags are great but not that practical in setting up, transporting and can be a pain when they are damp. You can even go with an awning tent which are great. Love the Bonbri. Where do I get one?

[@RoamOverlanding]

Yeah RTT is on the cards in the near future! The Bonbraai is currently only available in South Africa, but with enough interest I’m sure they can manage to ship some overseas! Get in touch with John at Bonbraai.co.za

Great awning. A few questions: what is the weight? When it rains, does water from the roof come in through the gap between awning and roof racks? What are the details of that camp fridge, the brand and such? Great video, and voice!

[@RoamOverlanding]

Hey bud, the awning weights around 20kg, there will be a certain amount of water that will drop through at the tailgate side, but it will get caught by the gutter rail, there is also the option of moving the roofrack slighting forward on the car so that gap is over the roof. Its plenty of protection anyways. The Fridge is the National Luna 40L they make some of the best fridges in the world!

Beautiful videos, as always! An inspiration to go away, for sure! Our wildlife is very interesting in Australia but this is next level! I am interested in your chairs, a lot more compact than ours. What is their brand name? Are you happy with them? Are they durable? Very good points about branding, we are always looking for durable products that deliver and it is not that easy. Cheap products that do not last are everywhere..
