Excellent video mate. I love your solo work. As for making your content as long as your making videos that you enjoy doing I think that more important than making it for engagement. I aspire to be as good with the camera work as you Pete. I think you’re brilliant at it. Thanks for telling us what you’re thinking about too. I feel like I’m there with you

I love this Pete. More of this stuff please 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

How good is the Holland Track .. did it in June .. will be doing again soon

nothing like the crackling of a campfire

That laugh is so infectious .. keep up the good work brother

any chance we can get a demo of the door opening and closing next video ???

Have missed Alex! I can't wait to watch the stories unfold. Millennials answer to Alby Mangles ;)

Hi pete When you turn you fridge off do you prop the door open???

Hahahaha I think the hinges work fine your worse than a kid on a hot day open and shut all the way through get a beer

Great video Pete and a great review mate, the door opens and closes easy 😜 you got an another video coming out with your solo camp ?

Get Michael from seek adventure on next

Looks bloody good!

Success = Doing what makes you happy

Great Video Pete! I love my Bushman 130L Upright Fridge in my canopy, by far the best fridge I have used. I also changed from a chest type of fridge John a drop down slide, about 18 months ago now and love the upright style better. Keep up the great work mate 👍

Hey mate glad to see you gave it a real work out and cycled those door hinges like you've used the fridge for 5 years. Let's face it when you are smashing beers you will open that door at least 24 times a night

Always enjoy your product reviews. Interested to know what issues you had with the Dometic considering you've been suprised about the reliability of the Bushman. Cheers

You’ve lost some weight mate. Looking good. 💪

Nice one

Nice overview Pete, I bought can holders from ebay that keep them from sliding all over the place, not many tins coming with the 6 pack holders these days.

Fantastic real world review

Great review, Pete! I’ve been eying these things for a while.

HA PETE 👍 THE UPRIGHT FRIDGES ARE GREAT 👍 I PUT ONE OVER THE EBAY BATTERY DCELL FANS IN MINE AND 🤔 AND IT DOES HELP AND THE THE BATTERY LASTS 3 MONTHS 🤷‍♂️CHEERS BUD

13:34 pete opens the fridge 24 times

Just bought the kings 60L fridge haven’t properly tested yet like out camping so far I like the look in my car the easy access into it but mine doesn’t have freezer witch I’m not worried about

Haha mate watching this video was like screaming at the kids SHUT THE Fu@king Fridge 😂😂😂

Fantastic clip Pete I had a 110Lt virtgo up right fridge in the back of the Pajero worked a treat but I found it just took up to much room in the back of the car they are a massive game changer though. I would like to see about the draw fridges so I have more room to freeze meat and other things so we can go longer without running to the supermarket as much 👍thanks mate for a fantastic review 👍

Dad must have given me a lot of mental abuse over the fridge.😢 The whole time watching, I was thinking, "Shut the GD fridge, Pete!!!!" 😂😅😂 Oh, the anxiety! It's real.😊 Thanks for the therapy session. Cheers, Pete!🎉

For a short arse like me an upright fridge for me shits all over a chest fridge. A near centre mount fridge is going to give a lot less movement than a side mounted fridge. Great review Pete.

Up front and honest as always mate, great vid and advice 👍🏽🍻 love that there’s plenty room for the tins 🍻😂

I want to know why the price is so high. You can get a large house fridge cheaper.

Thanks Pete Are you sure they’re Australian made?

New drinking game have a skull every time Pete opens the fridge haha

Good to see Alex again. I didn't see all of his vids from his Intents channel, but i really enjoyed what i did see. Any chance of getting Mike from Seek Adventure on the show as well? He's another legend like Alex that I think alot of people would like to see again.

No facts to back it up but I'd say Aussie company but made in china like everything else in the world

I've had my 85l Bushmans for 6yrs Pete, I agree with everything you said! Worth every cent (and there is a few!) but such a great, reliable fridge. We just spent 4 nights freecamping and there was plenty of food and drink storage for both of us. Only con, our door has dropped slightly, does not affect the seal at all. Great fridge, will never go back to a chest fridge. Nailed it mate! Dick

Top flick mate, really enjoyed this one.

i'm going to watch again and count how many times you opened the fridge door, just coz I can lol. btw, one con, door doesnt stay open lol. cheers, Frank from Syd

back in the day, cans came with 6 pack plastic rings, was always handy to make one into a neck one can holder by cutting out the middle and leaving just one ring, if you get my drift. Frank from Syd, (keen for a hoodie ;))

Sweet review Pete 👍👌😎 I got myself a kings 65L about a year ago which is essentially identical to the bushmans but way cheaper. Its has changed things up a lot and makes it so much easier to access the fridge contents. It uses about double the power than the trusty ol engel chest fridge eclipse 38L but removes the need for the slide so saves a good amount of weight and is heaps better all round. I have done the fan mod on mine because in summer on a 40 degree day it was chewing power like a tesla on fart mode! Honestly mate the fan mod is well worth it because it keeps everything in the fridge at a way more even temp because it circulates the air. I have absolutely no fkn idea why they wouldnt include a fan to start with because it makes that much difference to the overall efficiency and distribution of cool air!! The fridge also doesnt have to cycle as regularly so ultimately you save on power draw too so its a win fkn win chicken for bloody dinner bro! 👌👍😎 I like my temps at 1 to 2 degrees for beers and have mine set in 3 out of 5 (i think) and i reckon yours goes up to 7 so id say you vould drop it back a notch with a fan. The kings also has a digital display and comes with a 5 yr warranty and for $500 im not worried about the warranty really and it has performed flawlessly so far. I also installed rivnuts on the side to mount it securely on top of the drawers with think angle brackets and thats remives the need for an encloaure so the fridge also breathes even better. And again less weight overall. Hope you enjoyed my rant mate 🤣😎😜👍👌 Love youe work Pete keep it up ay 👍👌

That's Rad...🍻

new drinking game, drink when the fridge opens! if anything great road test of the hinges lol great Vid keep em coming FYI the miss was yelling at the tv to Shut the bloody fridge lol

Don't park on the piss, while you are on the piss. Great stuff Pete.

Yeah bro I’m rocking the 65L Waco fridge and I must admit I only got the fridge/ freezer & obviously the upright has a freezer built in and being an average height man I had to get the drop down fridge slide after you Jack up your Hilux and install a draw system my fridge was above my head I couldn’t see in it , And yes was thinking the same you need to run a comp how many times did Pete open & close the fridge door 🤷‍♂️

Yr food in yr fridge must b warm while u were filming must of opened it every 1 second 2000 times 😅

I went from an old battery draining engel 40 chest fridge to a Dometic nrx 80 and I can confirm the massive pro's of an upright fridge. Less floor space was a major pro for me as well as no need for a fridge slide. So there is 20+ kg less weight behind the Dmax rear axle. I didn't go the Bushman but not for any reason, Just place and time I got what I got. However I could have owned one and loved it just as much. Another plus I found is the fridge becomes more interactive during normal life at home and not camping. Being easier to access and use it has become a true third fridge for use in daily life. This review is bang on solid!

Did anyone get a fridge door open count 🤣

Might have me convinced for a chest fridge! Loved the review Pete 🤝

I’m not sure if you opened the door enough. Me n the wife were pissing ourselves laughing 😂 Keep up the good work Pete

Very well explained im a massive chest fridge fan with dual zone etc but you now have me thinking... Cheers

Fantastic episode, Loved Intents when he was working, an awesome storyteller and crafter of content. Interesting way of dealing with kids and the anger that inevitably builds up. I think the anger is more out of frustration on the things they do, which usually is balanced out by the wonderful things they do. At least you recognised the anger and futility of striking out. I have to agree with Alex, the longer pods are a struggle but definitely worth it with the depth you are able to get. 100% true in regards to regrets, you are where you are because of the decisions you have made and the consequences of them, good or bad
