Hello from Edmond Oklahoma I got to spend a month in Fremantle Australia a couple of years ago and fell in love with the troopy. I wish I could have made it to New Zealand while I was there. Just gives me a reason to go back. Can’t wait to see more posts.

The friendship the 2 of you have is so cute and genuine. You're a testiment to When you have a healthy foundation as a couple, it makes the achievement of your goals as a family so much closer! You're both beautiful humans, and I wish the best for your adventures ahead! Have fun! Can't wait to see your next video installment!

We run our troopy as a 5 seater with 2 kids under the age of 5. Painful with a newborn but doable. She's 2 now and he's 5 and they absolutely love the troopy. So don't let kids scare you off owning the car! It's a phenomenal car to get the family out and away with. Good luck guys and enjoy!

Can’t get new Troopys in Canada, used ones to import must be at least 15 years old. Some people have brought old ones in from Australia but they are always right hand drive in a left hand drive country. If I was younger I would import a 15 year old Troopy from Europe, I see them for sale online in Germany. They are left hand drive. I did a lot of overlanding in my younger days in Australia, Africa several times and once in India. I’ve watched thousands of hours of KZfaqrs travelling the world and the Troopy is the best vehicle in my opinion. Older Land Rovers work well too, especially in Africa where parts are readily available for the older units as Land Rover didn’t change a lot of things for decades and there are out of service vehicles all over the place to poach parts from. The strength and capability of the Troopy and the endless ways to customize them make them the perfect overlanding vehicle in my opinion. Even if all one does is throw a foamy, sleeping bag and sheet, a stove and a 12 volt fridge and some bins for clothes and food in the back, you could live and travel comfortably for months and/or years with a Troopy.

Love your video, keep them coming

Great to have found your channel. Have recently bought a Troopy and will be following your journey to learn as much as I can and get inspired. Thanks

Nice troopy. You’re very pretty, wow! The girl isn’t bad either

Thanks James! Glad you enjoyed it 😊

Awesome guys can’t wait to see the Chanel grow ..

Loving a kiwi build! Dont stop with the uploads!

Awesome to follow along a NZ troopy build.

Look forward to the future videos guys!

Good job keen to see final resault

Awesome troopy can't wait to see where you go with your build, great to see more kiwi content coming out. Just please don't forget about security for your troopy there are people out there that think they can just take other peoples property I'd hate to hear that your baby has been taken so please keep security in mind. 👍👍👍

Hey Scott.. You didn't used to have a lifted Hilux did you.. Your faces look familiar..! A couple years ago, soon after my partner bought her Troopie, we were returning to West Coast via Coleridge / Lake Lyndon when we came across a young couple similar to yourselves requiring a tow from a side track.. It had snowed heavily overnight causing clearance issues... My partners Troopie was very stock at the time and was still on the original factory wheels/tyres... We weren't carrying any recovery gear, but they had a snatch strap.. With front and rear diff locks engaged, we managed to free them from where they were hung up after 4x lunges. You say you are looking out for a rear bar with spare wheel swing away.. After a lot of trouble getting a bar out of Australia (Cruiser Company) my partner got onto KRAE (Kaiapoi Repowers And Engineering) to adapt an existing design they had.. KRAE fitted it for her and are now listing that bar in their catalogue. ciao Ian

Good luck guys

I am new to your channel and I am also going the Headspace conversion, safe travels

Nice to see you and the build! Always like to see ideas. My build hasn’t started yet, use it basically as a bare work van currently. Plan is to turn it into a mobile workshop/ camper/ safer cargo van with load restraints etc.

What a lovely car

Great content man. What town bar you will be going for? Cheers

What rear bar do you think youll do?

Nice guys… Does the NZ LTspec come with diff locks? If so, that would be the perfect spec troopy I reckon. Will just need to solve some rear seats for the future kids!

Wish we had 70 in the states. I have an 80 series, but its not as handsome.

Hey mate, what is the brand for the arm rests? Thanks

Good luck if you go for a headspace….

Hello, my name is Alexander. I am from Russia. This car is my dream. I am interested in armrests for LC (like in your video), please tell me where to buy them (web site of the seller). I really enjoy your videos and look them before going to sleep. Please make new ones.

Imagine having a whole channel dedicated to an expensive, outdated, slow, uncomfortable garden shed on wheels. Those heaps of sh*t should be $39,990 drive away. But Toyota has conned the sheep into paying $95,000 (!!) for something they designed nearly 40 years ago 😂😂😂 They must be laughing around the boardroom in Osaka.

You two are great 👏, better than the troopy.... that's a big statement "A relationship that is stronger than a Toyota" 😂
