Smooth Pool on the Westall Loop, just out of Streaky Bay, South Australia is a beautiful spot to explore rock pools and according to people we met who had just been snorkelling, advised it is amazing to explore under water. Sharks are a real factor in the area so care is required. We stayed there for a few hours, had a picnic lunch, explored the rockpools and chatted with other people there. Hi...

Davenport Creek camping area is approximately 40km from Ceduna. To get to the camping area you do require a 4wd to drive on the sandy track. We dropped our tyre pressures and had no problems. There were not many people around so have a plan on how you will recover yourself if you are alone. If you plan to camp you need to be self sufficient. There is a basic toilet as shown in the video. We fou...

The Algebuckina Bridge on the Oodnadatta Track is situated about 50km South East of Oodnadatta along the Oodnadatta Track. When it opened in 1892 it was the longest bridge in South Australia. You can camp at the bridge which is what we did. The sunsets are amazing. There is no power, water or amenities available and when we were there it was pet friendly. by Real 4x4 Adventures

A short video during sunset in the Painted Desert by Real 4x4 Adventures. The Painted Desert is about 10 km from Arckaringa Station. There is accommodation at Arckaringa Station for a small fee.

Darche Dusk to Dawn 1400 swag setup by Real 4x4 Adventures
Hi mate I just bought one of these off marketplace and came without instructions. How do I charge it up using the car's alternator?
1.44A, 12V would be about 17.28W.
wow very nice
It's a beautiful part of the world
Woorim side?
Yes
Cheers brother I took my ranger for the first time there on the beach today and it went really well. Thanks for sharing the knowledge to the newish 👍
Great video. Really useful for someone who wants to check the level of difficulty before tackling the tracks and beach on Bribie. Thanks!
We are glad you enjoyed it
Mate does the screen turn off automaticly?
Yes ours did unless it was charging.
Tehy quote up to 16 AMP with a MPPT how is this possible
We've never got 16amp
Nice video, good and very informative reporting, that's how it should be. Thank you very much, will look into this on our way back from Thargomindah in August. Carl Hervey Bay
Thanks Carl
Show the kitchen drawers
We have another video focusing on the kitchen slide
Great info. Thanks. Assume no mobile reception?
None from memory but we travel with a star link so it's not a big focus and I can't be 100%
Have you had winds blow the awning so much that the side pole lifts and falls over?
We have never had super strong winds in the tent. If there was a questionable forecast I'd put a second rope over each pole but it was never really tested.
Thanks for the video! How careful do you have to be to make sure you don't get mold or mildew on the canvas? Tossing up between this or the lite model but the thought of it being covered in mildew when I next pull it out of the bag kind of puts me off. Any tips here? Cheers
I always check it is dry and put it up when I get home if it has been raining but don't do anything above and beyond that. Sometimes if the ground was damp I work just put the main inside tent up to dry out when I got home.
Thanks for your reply!
Looks beautiful!
It is 🙂
Really helpful! Really good overview of the place! You know what you are realistically getting ahead of time
Thank you 🙏
Well after meeting and spending an enjoyable weekend with the Author (Andrew) in South Australia (Victor Harbour), as they were passing though on their Australia trip, I was pleasantly surprised to find this review whilst searching for opinions and ratings on the XTM Awning. Andrew I will be purchasing an awning based on your review. thanks mate.
Thank you mate. I look forward to seeing you up in QLD 😉
We need to get a video of that amazing Everest 😉
Hey mate, thanks for sharing How much does the RIDGE 4X4 KITCHEN SLIDE - V1 weigh? I have just installed a set of Titan drawers and am considering installing this on the sliding top side of the Titan.
About 37kg so it's not light but I've seen cheaper/lighter ones bow
@real4x4adventures65 thanks. I just test fitted my fridge and unfortunately won't have the height. Maybe on the wish list with a lower profile fridge.
Asume you must get a roof rack
You do need something to mount it to. Doesn't need be a big basket rack or platform racks. Can be just the two slats across the roof (depending on the size rack and application)
Great video. Do you know Roughly how much the tent bag would weigh if you take out the fly, pegs and poles. Single mum here trying to reduce the risk of a back injury stuck in the bush lol
Thank you. I think you'd still be looking at a good 20kg, probably just over. Most of the poles are connected to the tent so it's really the fly, pegs and fly poles you'd be eliminating. The Lite model would be a little lighter. Depending where you live, BCF, tentworld, snowys and anaconda should have them in stock. Pop in and see how it feels. Honestly the most amazing tent if you can manage it. We have loved it.
32kg
Been there many times but loved the reminder, never camped there though but it is a great place to visit fure sure. Thank you
Thanks for watching 🙏
Excellent video, mate. I never knew this old bridge existed. It's the first video I've seen of it.
Thank you 🙏 The sunsets did not disappoint 👌
Cool mate nice pov
Thanks for watching 🙏
I pulled my black wolf out after 10 years not using it, to set up in my backyard before I go camping next weekend. But the middle bit won’t “click” into place! I’ve tried everything. Any ideas how to fix it?
Are all the bends in the poles locked in? Are the corners pegged down?
Algee-buck- nah
Thank you 🙏
Algee- buck- na
Thank you 🙏
Nice review! We've just brought our first four-wheel drive and we've just brought a refrigerator. Small type. Only going away for weekends at the moment. This is on special at the moment for 290 at Repco. Super cheap has something very similar. Little bit cheaper boxing Day sales. It does look bigger than what I expected. Is it too big for just weekends? And can you charge this while driving? Thank you!
Remember you need a battery too. It depends what battery you are looking to put in, what you need to power and how much space (what kind of setup you have). It worked for us before we got a better dual battery setup.
@@real4x4adventures65 Thanks for the reply. I never knew you had to buy a $700 battery to put in it. We normally just camp at powered sites unless it's really busy then forced to use unpowered sites. I used to use a jump pack to run my camp lights etc. on Unpowered sites.
If you're on our instagram or Facebook, send us a message and happy to chat about some options which could be good depending on your needs
Interesting and informative.
Thank you
Great info, but couldn't see the colours.
You'll need to head back out there to see them 😉
Mate I went there and no one opened the door so I left It was around late Oct 23
Oh no, that's a shame. The kids are in school during the day, was it during the week and between 930-330?
Loved this place. Well done.
It was amazing. Then we went up to Painted desert which is also amazing
Awesome vid
Thanks a lot 🙏
They look great. Just ordered mine. Cheers.
I'm really happy with them 👍
First!! Omg this is the greatest day of my life!! And they said I'd never amount to nothing...
Hope you liked the video
@@real4x4adventures65 I did. I think they forgot to water the lawn. 😁
great spot to enjoy bribe , peace and quiet in your own camp spot
So many great sites
bribie is the top spot with easy acess , great campsites
It's paradise
Never been there. A good insight to what to expect.
Happy to help 🙂
They need to ban driving along that beach. Bad for the environment. Banning it will stop these hundreds of Boneheads coming over our bridge every weekend with thier dirty diesel 4WDs.
So you would like all beach driving banned or just at Bribie?
Haha should ban entire shipping industries so no petrol, diesel and goods coming to Australia.
@hiren261660 A bit Off topic perhaps... Back to your Bong Brother.
@@Andrewkafpshipping industries bad for environment too any recommendations here ?
@@hiren261660 They don't directly affect me...
Can you slope it down?
Yes, you just don't extend the legs as far
G'day mate, what is the fridge slide ? Putting mine in the lc200, Cheers
Ridge 4x4
Love the swag. Does this fit a man with his wife? Or only one person?
It's 1400 wide so marginally wider than a double, I've slept in it with the Mrs a few times but we are use to a king at home so was a little cosy
Does it have to be on a flat surface to work? Thanks.
If the car is facing down hill it will not stay open. If you pull it put all the way it will lock at the half way in point
I was thinking for the slide, I can't see it being an issue for the fridge being on an uneven surface
Cool video man! Thanks...
I'm glad you enjoyed
I have the XTM drawer which I got as present over 12 months ago. The key snapped in the barrel recently and NO locksmith can get the barrel. Both BCF and Supercheap are both lacking in any support to even ask the distributor for any spares. So if your considering getting this product then consider an alternative brand as XTM has NO support for product failures.
Oh wow, that's disappointing to hear. I hope they eventually work it out for you. In my use I don't use the lock so haven't had any challenges like that. So far for me and my usage I have found them great. Cheers
Thanks. Whats missing is how much extra distance is required to open lid straight up or leant back fully open vs the closed dimensions. Very important if putting on a benchtop build with wall behind. Can you please measure this?
We're thinking of getting this for the back of our fourby and wondering how it's been since you've installed it?
Yeah but it’s super sturdy, I’ve seen some of the lighter ones bend with less weight. I’m happy with it 🙂
We've been really happy with it since installing and now been on a few trips. If you're anywhere near brisbane, you're more than welcome to come and take a look.
Thanks for video, I found it helpful I had my eye on the oztent but the pack up size of this might have won me over. Since you've owned both, would you say the black wolf matches the quality of the oztent? Although it's a heavy tent, it'll actually help me remove more weight from my car. I don't use my roof rack (50kg) for anything but an awning (10kg). My swag probably weighs the same as this tent so 60kg off of my roof is pretty tempting for me to make the switch
I feel the quality is definitely comparable. Make sure it’s the canvas Blackwolf not the lite though 👍
I'd put more trust in that Gatorade bottle than the Lifesafe. If it loses pressure you will not know until you need to use it, a proper extinguisher has a gauge you can check. The extinguisher is heavy because it's better quality, compare the extinguishers metal valve vs the Lifesafes plastic spray nozzle you find on deodorant cans. And when it comes to sizes you want the largest extinguisher you can fit. The bigger the extinguisher the bigger the fire you can tackle. Don't trust the marketing videos either, the fires they set up do not compare to what a real, uncontrolled fire is like.
Thanks for sharing 👍😀
No problem 👍
Been looking at these, do they have a built in dcdc charger or do you still need to set that up in you charging setup??
No they don’t
Did you have mobile service here?
I did but my friend didn’t
Is that the mineral white? Or moonstone?
Mineral white
