This channel is not just the adventure experience but the Jimny that carries you with it. I think if you ever change a vehicle it may not have the same effect or it will be a completely new experience altogether.

I think it has definitely been a key part of this channel up until now, but I also cant be the Jimny guy forever. The vehicle still needs to make sense for my life at the end of the day. But I understand where you're coming from. I did a livestream where I chatted about the next build in depth and what I want to achieve from the channel going forward kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i8yardV4mt2raGw.html if you feel like gaining a bit more perspective on where my head is at!

I guess keeping there recovery gear is a little bit dangerous. Imagine if you're driving in some narrow road. From one side is a "rock wall" (like in Billy Goat Jim's recent video Cut Rock Road - Watagans). You might get so close to that rock wall, that it would be impossile to open the window. I guess kitchen stuff and charging station is better.

Hi Adrian. This is just awesome! I think I need to contact Bushtec to find out if they are willing to do the same development for the pre 2020 Jimny. I am actually dreaming of using these compartments to store two 10 liter jerry cans [one on each side]. Not sure if that is possible, but I believe this could be a winner. Keep up the good work and good luck with your next project.

Brilliant additions; I've one question (did I miss this?) why did you put the 'window box' on the passenger side? I would think that placing it on the driver's side would have prevented the blind spot you now have, when looking over your shoulder. More sales potential in LHD countries than RHD?

@RoamOverlanding 4 жыл бұрын

Hey David, we have designed for both windows. And have added an extra mirror to the side view mirror to give visibility of the blind spot 👌🏻 I have it on that side because the awning is that side. If I wasn’t going to sell the vehicle I would have both installed. 👍🏻👍🏻

Have you considered installing the hatch upside down and fitting it with two support levers rather than the single gas spring so it can double as a small table (i.e. to accommodate a portable gas stove and a pot)? Seems to me this way it’d be a bit more practical with the field kitchen setup.

@@RoamOverlanding Haha! I'm happy that I made you laugh :) I completely understand your analogy and I think you have a good point. Just sad because as I can remember correctly you said once in your videos that you would like to keep the Jimny for one day you will like to give it to your kids but Life must go on and new ventures need to be conquered so I understand. I don't think you will lose everything I just think that you need to think carefully about what you are going to do next because there is a fork in the road at the moment. In my opinion, I think you should do exactly the same thing that you did with the Jimny from buying it to planning to slowly and surely improve upon it with time while going through adventures and you should keep on creating content as you do, because its awesome. Might I recommend the next adventure for you to have a look at? (Maby create a whole youtube series out of it) I don't know if you have heard of this but I think this is quite awesome! www.putfootrally.com/ www.putfootrally.com/the-rally/ They have a 'take any vehicle that you have rally' and a 4x4 one I think you should look into the 4x4 one. best of all most of the money they make goes to charity.

Good vid 👍 I think its a mistake getting rid of the very vehicle that help you make the channel. I mean how many thousands of ppl subbed just because of the jimny? Awsome video/editing skills aside

Look buddy, it hasnt been an easy decision to make please dont think I havent considered everything already. I have explained my reasons in my Livestreams for making this decision. I hope that everyone wont leave, and that some people will hang around and follow the next build and adventures, because the philosophy of the show will be the same, just with a different vehicle. But I hear everyones concerns! Hope you good bud!

I am sure your channel will continue to grow 👍 But you have the best channel on youtube for the jimny by far. Its a shame to lose that unique edge. All the best mate i will miss the jimny. I will stick around 👍

This Jimny is toooooooooooooo over priced here in Pakistan. Ex-Factory price is Rs.4.6 Million! Oh my God

I love the passion, but after all the money and time invested, you could have just gotten a four runner or landcruiser.

Yeah but then he wouldn't have a channel this popular... Do you know how many ppl subbed because of his choice of car? With those other cars he would be lost in the crowd and boring..

But it didnt work out that way, I would never have bought those vehicles at the time, and probably still not now.

@mcrcfly ; I didnt buy the Jimny to get a popular channel, I didnt have any expectation of youtube when I wanted this vehicle. I just loved the look of it and wanted to own it, just like many other people. It inspired me to do something crazy and fun, and I think I accomplished that, and had a great time while doing it.
