I can do most of that and I did not spend AU50,000 fitting it out. Mine is fitted for stills rather than video, but I do some video. But I am not interested in a coffee machine, which alone adds thousands plus more battery capacity, etc.
Honestly… one of the silliest mods In my mind.
Nescafé pods don’t even taste great, and take about the same amount of time as a Jetboil and Aeropress.

With or without the Sodastream? :)


Hey don’t dis the soda stream. We’re taking one to Fraser Island this year (9 blokes) for drinks on the beach (I generally drink rum and soda on tour) instead of heaps of plastic bottles. I suppose we’ll see if that’s a success next week.

Our usual set up on the beach during the day between fishing…..

Mr4X4 had a beer keg, coffee machine and Sodastream in that rig. Overkill in anyone's book.

Or raid the pantry and do some chemistry!

He did say in an earlier video he needed to find faults so he appeared objective. Did he find any?

Did you notice the new rear ladder? He does talk about the LeTech towards the end, but I saw it earlier on the beach footage.

His spelling isn't always perfect, but at least he got "flaw" correct 😀

Just the little things like sticking door handle buttons and parking sensors getting gummed up with mud.

Also said the slow steering makes it harder to drive in mud, and the weight makes it slide around a little more.

Overall he's very positive about it

On the backchat studio podcast, he mentioned he just picked the Grenadier from getting serviced. Mentioned how much he loves driving it.
Yep I know he loves it; he's a little uneasy balancing his new mistress against the old tribal audience preferences, namely Japanese 4x4s.
I predicted a QM in his future stable, several months ago.
As long as the channel thrives he could afford to run that and the Toyotas.

This has been masterstroke by INEOS ANZ. Ronny is self confessed Toyota fanboy, he has a large audience, he is fair in his reviews and he and others who have driven love it. Plus he flogged the car.

Ronny will have a tough time not buying the new cab chassis, or maybe that is what INEOS will give him to test next, so he can do a canopy build!

Purnell Adventure told me a couple of days ago, cab chassis inquires are the most numerous (for them) at the moment.

Ronny is at the Sydney 4X4 Show this weekend (6, 7 and 9 Sept). I wonder whether he drove the Grenadier? Although the video says the Pilbara will be its last test.

EDIT: I saw another clip where he says he is flying in.

I believe he said, "POSSIBLY it's final journey".

He's pretty positive about it so who knows. Everyone says he's a ute guy but none of his most recent vehicles have been ute's, and he seems to be coming around to the wagons

He's a trusted influencer. No doubt though, waiting for commentator <Old Mate> who will be keeping his <lifted '92 Hilux without all the modern sensor shit thanks>
:LOL:

He also gushed over the QM ans norweld tray on backchat podcast. Really liked the look but also said he liked the tub with tire setup too.

I am surprised he didn't use off road mode at all. That would have deactivated the parking sensors.
My door button sometimes sticks after lots of dusty track/road driving.
I find a sharp tap with bottom edge of my fist pops it out.
