Welcome back to another video! This week we are heading to Outback Queensland!
Bluetti EOFY Sale www.bluettipower.com.au/jcdqqrps
AC180 discount code: 50AC180CAA (A$50, 1st-30th June)
We start this one off getting some essential spares for the caravan and putting up the awning clothesline before exploring around Lake Maraboon in Emerald. We are then met by some not so friendly campers when we arrive at Lara wetlands, who decide to tell people where they can and cant camp. Putting that interaction behind us we enjoy a relaxing swim in the hot springs a toasty 38 degrees and even get up for a sunrise dip the next day.
After leaving Lara Wetlands we call into Barcaldine for a walk in the town before heading north to Aramac to do the 200km Sculpture trail and visit lake Dunn. A quick trip into Muttaburra to explore the town and look into the Interpretive centre shows us more information on Outback QLDs Dinosaur History.
To complete a bit of a loop we make our way into Longreach and camp at Apex Riverside Park and check out some free things to do in Longreach.

Stone Stomper is really the only truly effective solution for stone chips. It will also significantly reduce dust on the back of the vehicle and front and forward sides of the van. Only negative is in heavy mud where it will accumulate mud on top of the mesh and make it hang very low and possibly drag. Another thing to note is their service and warranty support is absolutely first class. We wouldn’t tow without one. Great videos guys. 👍😎

The only option, the stone stomper has saved our camper trailer from a mile of stone chips from our trips over the Plenty hwy, Merinee loop rd and a trip up to the cape.

@aussiefarmer6012 23 күн бұрын

Another great episode, thanks. I purchased a used off road van that had been well used offroad. The previous owners Ram 2500 only had standard rear mud flaps. The van had a vertical mesh screen with frame mounted (caravan stone guard shield)on the van drawbar. This frame had the standard short mud flaps mounted off the bottom of it. This mesh frame stopped most of the damage to the front of the van. What did happen though is the rocks went under it and badly damaged the underside of the van and water tanks. My suggestion from my experience is fit the stone guard shield to the van but change the mudflaps fitted below this and make them bigger and go to the ground. This will stop the rocks going under the van from your ranger. I would also fit big mud flaps across the back of the Ranger (rock tamers). So essentially two sets of mud flaps going across the width and to the ground, both on the van and ranger. Those nets that go horizontally from the ute to the van (stone stompers) are a waste of money. All the damage on our van is underneath the van not on the front of it.

Your historical introduction to your camping adventures was captivating. Having spent time in Australia before returning to New Zealand, I developed a profound appreciation for Australia's diverse landscape, particularly its abundance of mining ore and minerals amidst the seemingly barren and dry terrain. Australia's vastness holds a unique allure, especially coming from a country renowned for its majestic mountains, lush forests, and picturesque lakes. Witnessing a hot spring in Australia was particularly remarkable for me, given New Zealand's volcanic activity. It was a cool experience to see such natural wonders in a different context.👍

I have a Bluetti 180 as well great addition to our set up, instead of moving it around he van try plugging it into your external power input, you can then use all power points in your van, providing you dont exceed its capability, when off grid we can run the microwave, airfryer, skylink etc from the Bluetti, set up in our vehicle charging when we go for a drive.

I have bad memories of Lara Wetlands, when refilling our tanks our caravan sank into a hole as the tap was leaking and there was a star picket in the hole. Had to use our max tracks to get out then a week later blew a tyre where the star picket had weakened the tyre. So things can go wrong anywhere! Probably should go back for new memories.

Most stone protectors work to some degree but over the years I’ve accepted that if you want to go bush, tracks, desert tracks, mud, sand then your van will take a pounding. If you want everything pristine, buy the stone protectors, stay on the black top and travel 15km on dirt every afternoon to camp site.

Post their van details? Would you like it if someone did that to your family? What if they have kids? What are you trying to achieve by doing that? That's an extreme reaction and could be quite dangerous. This new idea that everyone has to be named and shamed could end up getting someone killed or injured. Sounds like you would recommend bringing back the public stocks in the town square because that's what it's equivalent too. Every little interaction does not need to be posted on the internet for clicks and to titillate the viewers. How about fight your own battles and stop needing validation of others? Everyone has had to do that long before the internet was around. People would simply have a difference of opinion and then get over it. No whining on the internet so everyone would pile on. Not saying that woman was in the right at all, but to publicly shame a family online with rego numbers/van description etc could lead to you biting off more than you can chew legally. Also to someone really getting hurt. Lots of crazies out there now.

One time I was camping at Taronga Falls in Victoria, and I was the only one in the whole huge campground, using my generator to power my home cinema to watch a movie before bed and some woman, (Karen), Pulled up right next to me, knocked on my door and asked me how long I was going to run my generator for? I was kind of dumbfounded by such a stupid question because it was before 9:00 o'clock, so I just said, "until I finish watching my movie and go to bed and that it's my power source"; because you can't use solar panels at night. I should have said something else, but I was polite. There's no way that you should have moved if anything you should deliberately move closer to the water just to teach Karen some tolerance and to mind her own business, but if I was a female, I guarantee she would quickly learn some manners.

My wife was into me about driving all the way from Hughenden to Muttaburra, dirt all the way, on the way to Winton just to see a model Muttaburrasaurus in a park which had the sprinklers on so we couldn't get to it 🤣Looks like they have done it up to be more 'touristy' these days.

Hi Bryce! A Tip.If you tension that wire too tight you will have issues with your awning posts. They will be more difficult to get your posts to release next time you try.

Just a thought, put protection for your gas bottles, hoses and connections, shaking causes fittings to loosen, rocks and dust can damage the pipes.

Get some rock tamers or another great option is stone stomper the stone stomoer hooks from the car to the van and eliminates any stones coming up

Guys we love your show and look forward to watching it every week. Can you avoid the Karen bashing. My wife is a Karen and one of the nicest people you could hope to meet. Karen is the name her mother gave her and it is very hard to see someone be unintentionally emotionally bullied. I know you don’t mean anything by it and I’m sure that woman was not a nice person. However my wife is an amazing woman and I hate seeing her upset over the constant miss use of her birth name. As I say I know it was not meant to upset but it does. We hope to keep watching and supporting you guys as we do enjoy your content. All the best and keep up the great work. ❤

I used to have rock tamer’s and they did NOT work I destroyed the front of my new van which was 3 months old I broke all the water pipes under the van the tap broke off the drawbar I was so disappointed I traded the van in on a new van and purchased a stone stomper they were brilliant to deal with and I don’t have one stone scratch or mark on the van I’m so impressed they are the best on the market and every person I’ve spoken to that have them say the same thing best thing since sliced bread 👍🍻🇦🇺

Extend your rear mudflaps. Buy a 90x90mm square of rubber from bunnings and extend to about 150mm from the ground. I just added to the bottom of the existing mudflap. Stops everything from hitting the van. I think stone stompers are useless if you hit mud and don't like Rock Tamers. Let me know if you want a pic and will post to your FB.

Use insertion rubber which has layers of canvas through it. Much stronger and resistant to tearing. Clark Rubber or similar stores sells it.

hey guys nice video also a nice place to visit is the glebe weir at Taroom or kens camp at taroom there really nice places if ever you do im from that area and happy to show you around the town.Taroom is where the explorer Ludwig Leichhardt marked his intials in a coolibah tree in 1844 and in 1970 there was a big truck explosion like the one near charlieville half way up the fitzroy development road a truck blew up they made a picnic area there dedicated to them I made a video on it. For a stone guard get Bryce to make a rectangle with shadecloth from sttelor stuff they use on satalite dishes and attach it to the aframenear the bottom attach the shade cloth with zip ties ortac it there with poprivets.
