Hi Guys. We have really enjoyed your travel videos and having driven some of the same areas in our Crafter Kampervan All Terrain. Your observations and comments are spot-on. Heading to Tassie next year and your coverage of your advetures there will help. Wondering about your impressions of the KO2 All Terrain tyres. How were they in the wet on paved roads? Are they noisy? Look forward to seeing the next chapter in your adventures. Cheers. Geoff

Hey Geoff! Thanks so much for your positive feedback! Stoked for your upcoming Tassie adventure, certainly a beautiful place! We love the KO2 all terrains! Didn’t have any troubles with them & didn’t find them noisy at all. Would for sure recommend 😊 Enjoy your upcoming adventures!

Hi Guys. Thanks so much for sharing your travels over tha past year. We have covered some of the same areas in our VW Kampervan All Terrain and I think your comments are spot on. Heading to Tassie next year and found your coverage of the Apple Isle very useful. Thinking of upgrading our tyres at some stage and wondering how you found the KO2 All Terrains? Were they noisy? How was their grip on wet bitumen? Look forward to seeing your next life chapter. All the very best. Cheers. Geoff

I came to Australia from the US and tried to buy one of those 4x4 Sprinters here and the dealer told me that they don;t sell 4x4. Only all wheel drive. How did you get the 4x4. I thought that they only sell those in the US. I am super confused. I like your setup. I bought a brand new troopy but will sell it in a flash if I can get those Sprinters here. Can you confirm whether yours is proper 4x4 and how woud I get one? Thank you
@nograydaze4 ай бұрын
Hey John! They have discontinued the 4X4 model & now you can only get all wheel drive. We purchased our van just before Mercedes changed this. It’s proper 4X4 with low range & transfer case etc… not sure if we’ve filmed showing this is any of our videos. To get a hold of one now you’d need to be on the lookout for someone selling one second hand. We’ve heard they are hot property though! Hope that helps!
