Our Gear

Here we'll share reviews and tips on the gear we use on our 4x4 adventures around Australia.

Our 4X4

1999 Toyota Land Cruiser We picked up our Toyota Landcruiser in 2013 as a reasonably standard vehicle and have slowly modified it, making adjustments for out style of trips and requirements. The bulbar (ARB), roof rack (ARB) and rear bar (Kaymar) were all already on the car. It is a GXL model with the 1hz […]

Blackwolf Turbo 300 (canvas) tent

This is an amazing tent which we used on a number of our adventures. The main tent is 3m x 3m with an extra covered area at the front. We went with the “canvas” model with upgraded poles, floor and polycotton canvas. Despite these upgrades it still is quite fast to setup. We added the […]

Oztent RV2

We bought this tent second hand for our 2 older kids. The main appeal with was the quality and very fast and easy setup allowing the kids to set this up themselves. The canvas was a high quality and floor very durable. These are a great tent but are quite long packed up which is […]

Darche Dusk to Dawn 1400 Swag

The Dusk to Dawn 1400 (also available in an 1100 or 900) swag is a great 2 person swag or for a larger person wanting a little extra space. It has 2 large entries with the canvas part being able to be rolled allowing the entried to double as amazing ventilation in warmer conditions but […]

Dometic Cfx3 75l Dual Zone Fridge

We looked at several fridges when we bought this and the three main deciding factors were the capacity, dual zone functionality and dimensions fitting with our ridge 4×4 kitchen slide. The two compartments can be individually set between 10c and -22c. The larger compartment is 45L and the smaller 30L. This gives great flexibility and […]

XTM Drawer with Fridge Slide

We bought this drawer after we bought our kitchen slide so it was only ever going to be used with a secondary fridge or cooler. We did look at the solid top option but especially with the height of the car, the functionality of being able bring whatever is on there out further was too […]

Ridge 4×4 Kitchen slide V1

Dating back to our first trip to Cape York we found it is so important (or at least a lot cheaper) to be able to make lunches easily whilst travelling. When looking at fridge slide options the heavy duty nature of this one appealed to us. Being able to have the fridge plus 2 other […]

CAOS

The CAOS 20L drink cooler is a heavy duty drink cooler which can also double as a normal cooler. It fits perfect with our XTM drawer and has tie down points to secure it in the back of the car. When travelling we drink a lot of water and to be able to have this […]

XTM 2.5m x 2.5m awning

The XTM 2.5m x 2.5m awning from BCF was the first awning we bought. We felt the size was perfect for us and we were able to mount it straight on to the side of our roof rack. It also came with three brackets but we did not use them. It is quite easy to […]
