Milo 2 In Action - this is it folks! The first footage of Milo2 in action although she's just limbering up compared to some of my 40 Series mates who don't mind playing hard! All this new paint's got me a tad shy right now but no doubt that'll change. The plan was always to drive Milo2 to Melbourne for the huge National 4x4 Outdoors Show, Fishing & Boating Expo but with the O.C.K.A. (Old Cruisers Kick Arse) run set the weekend before, we sped things up to make that too. Talk about a great bunch of Aussies and some awesome trucks - and all playing in the best country on earth. Check this out because the way this new truck feels already I reckon you'll be seeing lots more of her in future. She's built to do the big miles easy. To stay in touch with how Milo 2's evolving - there's heaps to do yet! - and to see where she's going subscribe to the Roothy channel - get in now, it's free!

Roothy, love your work.! Inspired by you sticking to your fundamentals and creating a new channel and DVD series. Keep working and inspiring all us hacks out there to get amongst it and hit the dirt. Adventures are what keeps everyone interested. Keep it coming.

@D1cko888 7 жыл бұрын

Geez, you can really see the effects of the chassis flex in how much the roof top tent moves around in relation to the cab. It'll be good once the spares and tanks are in place to fill that gap.

@Nath-we2eo 7 жыл бұрын

Looks great. Had the Federals before, great tyre. not sure about the air cleaner. How about mounting it behind the cab? Chuck the spares in the gap and it will look much better.Well done Roothy.

Oh, man I'm glad I found this channel. I remember watching one video a little while ago, I loved watching the ol rig. Such great content and some real off roading! I'd love to hear a review on them tires, as I have been looking at them to buy, but no worries. I will be watching many many more of your videos. Looking forward to see how milo 2 compares to the original ol girl...cheers mate!

Awesome that you came along Roothy. Awesome to see my yellow LS1 SWB got a quick pass in a Roothy Video. I need Milo in a Sporty 40 video too. Go the 40!.

@nathan2483 7 жыл бұрын

Sporty 40 your truck is looking good as always mate. Disappointed I missed this trip, but my builds are slowly getting there. I know you don't drive her a lot, but how do you find the fuel economy?

@itsfromlawrence 7 жыл бұрын

around 16L/100k's on the road and 22L in the bush. Got a gearbox problem so will be shelved while the other build are concentrated on and will look at later this year.

Hey roothy! I'm curious, if someone were to embark in on the journey of which you have done rebuilding the old girl. How much money roughly would one have to set aside for it? 30k? 40k? Cheers

are you planning a bog box or storage between the cab and the tub ?

@CamperKev 7 жыл бұрын

I hope Roothy does fill that area in with some kind of aluminum storage box, or water tank or whatever. It looks kind of weird like that and a waste of room. It's also a better position to carry weight, as it's between the wheels and further to the middle. Nice vehicle though. I would like to see it in the flesh someday.

@boofter5673 6 жыл бұрын

Love the progress on the truck but IMO having the tray that far back does not look good. Way too much rear over-hang. Having a space for the spare wheel directly behind the cab may have some advantage but seriously compromises the looks.
