Brad & Hayley… we watch a lot of these types of videos & this one was by far the BEST format we have seen - recapping at the end of your SA trip. Fabulous, unique & oh so helpful for people like us who want to plan a trip. No-one else is doing that! I read other comments here & it seems we are not the only ones who feel that way. We would LOVE to hear a recap like this at the end of every state visit PLEEEASE!!😊

Another cool episode Kedron Kids.

Also had a stupid headwind and extreme temperature one arvo crossing it and found a thick bush to hide in and cranked the air conditioner up to make life more comfortable. Next time we want to spend a month to cross it and check out all the side tracks and old highway. Stay cool legends🤙

This blowout has got us seriously thinking of getting a TPMS to monitor temps and pressure. We have some but they only work when the app is open & definitely need a heads up display. The nullarbor is known for its temps and headwinds 😅 Totally agree, we will be venturing across again & will take our time next time round.

Hey David, yes I agree with the TPMS. The system we have now doesn’t cut it (No HUD) The tyre was showing signs of fatigue in the sidewalls so I think it was a combination of long driving days and high ambient temps.

Finally, just wanted to say that we downloaded your episode when we had service today which was perfect timing, as the weather turned this afternoon, so we got all snug in our cubby house to watch our favs on KZbin and got a buzz again to see our names at the end, that was unexpected.

Thanks for another great video, the SA rundown was quite valuable information for following travellers. Bad luck with the tyre, but heat and load can do the damage - did the TPMS help at all, did you see a temperature/pressure change. I just love your outfit the Kedron XC3 is such an ideal size van and the Landcruiser is a very reliable, relaxed tow vehicle. Can you report back on the fridge fans soon please.

Unfortunately it only monitors pressure (bmpro was a gift) will be looking into a better unit for future travels with a HUD and temp sensor if possible. We love it too and agree, can’t go past kedron and a Toyota 70 for a tough reliable setup. The klevacool fans have been running non stop for 5 months without missing a beat, keeping our internal temps at a steady 3c. Honestly it’s good, I rarely think or worry about the fridge now.

Hi guys - this is prob the best summary I have seen for someone like ourselves who are planning to go there sometime in future. We have watched quite a few youtubers, but this would be the most well packaged info with we have come across, so well done for how you put that info across. One question, seeing you doing diving made us wonder if you can also give us advice on what masks to use for snorkelling because everytime we get something, it always seems to fog up and we can see nothing. Is there a trick to this or do we need to buy a specific brand of mask - tx
@our.australia.trip.
@our.australia.trip. Жыл бұрын
Hey Ken! Thanks for the kind words mate 😀 Certainly, a good quality mask to start with we use Cressi diving gear & it works great. To avoid fogging it helps to use toothpaste as an abrasive to remove the antilog film applied during manufacture and just use some baby shampoo for anti fog, rubbing it on the inside of the lens and rinsing just before putting the mask on. We use this method and never experience fogging up 👍

I have to say that tyre pressure is "king" on the Nullarbor. Don't know what tyre pressures you were running in that tyre that blew out but I have to say that tyre pressure is king on the Nullarbor, especially in the heat. Having done somewhere in the vicinity of 100 return trips across, many with a 20' full off road van, I have never suffered a flat. I run 45-50 psi on the 200 series and 50 on the van (but not off-road !). Your tyre appears to have got very hot and then delaminated, maybe it developed a slow leak before letting go. A good friend owns a mechanical workshop in Norseman and he reckons most tyre issues out there are due to under-inflation, especially on low profile tyres. Looking forward to following more of your travels. I might also add that if you need a tow truck out there it comes from Norseman (or if they are unavailable, Coolgardie/Kalgoorlie, so $$$$$$$$$ !) There is essentially no roadside service out there at any of the roadhouses, so plan and prepare accordingly.

Cheers John we were run 45-50psi on the rears less if no van, unfortunately the tyres were showing signs of fatigue long before our trip across. The heat & long days in the saddle were the straw that broke the camels back I suspect. Good to know, & plan accordingly! Appreciate you taking the time to watch & comment John. All the best B&H

Re the weather, 2022 was very average and out of character for SA. In my view and as a local March and April are the best months in Adelaide for travel. Jan and Feb can have over 40c on a regular basis but as I said 2022 was weird and for that matter so has 2023. Thanks for showing my some of my own state, a couple of the places I have added to the bucket list :)

Hi, guys Thanks for all your video's, there great. Gee! That tyre was a mess, if you don't mind, can I ask you what brand it was? We currently have Coopers AT and are looking at changing to Dueler AT tyres. We are planning a road trip to Darwin this July. The Coopers are good tyres but expensive. Thanks again for showcasing Australia.

Hi David & cheers for the kind words 🙏🏼 We are running Mickey Thompson at3s. At $550 a pop, was quite disappointing to see it go bang. Although I’m not sure what is to blame we might look at an alternative in the future 😊
