You two are made for each other 😊
Awwww that’s so nice!! Thanks Gerry. 🩵
Jake isn't "Lil and Jake" without Lil! You are the energy we love to watch !! Don't ever listen to bad S*#$ people say! You are the 💣 Lil!
Awwww you guys!!! 💕💕💕 thank you so much, that’s exactly what we needed to hear this morning. You’re abso- fkn-lutely right!!! 🥰🥰🥰
@lilandjake we get a notification every time you post!! Favourite part of our week ♥️
Okay then, let's just say I admire Jacob's patience and incredible work ethic 😊
I am so damn lucky to have him. You’re right, he’s exactly that. Never gives up and is always so incredibly patient. 🤍
Well done guys. I didn't realise you were from my home state of the Apple Isle till I saw your plates on the mighty Ranger!!
Yes we hail from tassie! It's such an amazing place hey! We love our island home. Thanks for watching Mark! Hopefully see you on the next episode!
If Jake don't want Lil, I'll take her in a heartbeat and treat her like a total princess 💖💖
Watch out for fresh water snappies, they will wreck your trip 😃
Note to Jake …
Your wheel bearing will take a couple of hours to cool off
Good luck waiting that long
If you feel the hubs at centre of your wheel you can gauge how hot they are…
In normal operation they shouldn’t get too hot to touch
But it does pay to wait a few minutes for things like the turbo to cool a little bit before plunging into cold water … 12:53
Cheers bat man lives, I should give that a test, I've got a infra-red thermometer, and I'll see how long they take to cool down. Will let you know. Thanks for watching!
You two are so good to watch and have quickly become one of my favourite you tube go to vids! I was hanging out for this Gibbs River Road one too! Awesome that it's happening! And just ignore the negative comments. Their either jealous or wingers! Loving this partof your trip! Phil
Thankyou so much Phil and Clare! What a lovely comment 😊 ❤️ thankyou, yes we try to ignore the bad comments but Some days are harder than others! We're so thankful for people like you watching us, see you on Saturday for part 2!
No you balance each other out, and its also what makes you guys so watchable lol.
Ohhh you’re so damn nice Sentinel! Thanks so much. 🥰🥰🥰
You're both entertaining. Would be great to have a laugh around a camp fire sometime. I done the Gibb & Punululu last month.
Cheers Andrew! How amazing! The gibb is jaw dropping, We'd always be up for a beer and a campfire! Hopefully see you around the place soon!
@lilandjake I'll be back second week of July. (Had to go back to work for a couple of $wings)
Awesome video guys love your style 👌 😎
Cheers legend! Glad you liked it!
Your episodes are so entertaining. One minute you guys are having fun and the next you're anxious. The part where you might have lost the outboard and Lil was talking about it with food in her mouth, had me in splits. I thoroughly enjoy your style. Cheers from India.
Thanyou so much wer kar! We're so happy that you enjoy them! It's people like you that make it all worth while. Sending our love ❤️ to India, see you on the weekend!
You guys make me smile 😊
Awwww, thanks Andrew!! We hope you have a fab weekend. 🤩
NO LIL, JAKE SHOULD STAY WITH YOU AS YOUR A GOOD COUPLE
Awwww thanks Peter!!! 🥰🥰🥰
You guys are like Yin & Yang, Jacob is cool as a Cucumber super positive and your sexy mermaid is highly strung so to say seeing everything on a knifes edge and freaking out. You both work well together on your adventures well done guys.
Good idea to cool your brakes before entering a water crossing, otherwise you could crack discs
Absolutely spot on to cool things down before a water crossing - learned this recently in a 4WD course. 👍
Just saw your car in Darwin! Welcome!!!
Hahahaha great spot Emma! You've got a good eye!
Your right about stopping for a few minutes to let your bearings cool before ding water but it’s also wise to do it for your brakes.
Cheers legend! Good to hear that because I wasn't certain! Thanks for watching! ❤️
Pity you didn't see that Leonard Gorge was closed before you got there. Bandilngan and Tunnel creek would have been a good alternative before there. Last time I was at Tunnel Creek a Freshwater Croc had set up residence at the entrance.
You guys are loads of fun. we enjoy your passion for adventure and breaking things. Love your channel.
Thank you a million times over Rob!! We are so grateful for such incredibly kind words. 😍
As if anyone would call you high maintenance Lil.
You're a gem!
You guys crack us up and we love how real you are showing the good the bad and the insane 🙌
Keep mocking the haters its hilarious 😆
Aww bless you! 🥰 i absolutely will keep the mockery coming, can’t help myself. 😂 Thanks so much, always keeping it real. 🤙🏽
According to Safari snorkels, they don't recommend using snorkel socks at all. They feel the socks block the airflow too much and block the correct fuel-air mix to the engine.
Cheers kenneth, fair enough I can see their point, and it would definitely be so on an older vehicle, but surely on a newer vehicle the mass airflow sensor should pick up on a lack of air and adjust the fuel to suit? Anyway what would I know! Thanks so much for the comment and thanks for watching!
It’s more important to know and understand each other 😊
Absolutely!!! Communication is key! 🤩🤩🤩
We’ll done Lil!!!! Xx Sharon
Awwww thanks Sharon! I was very proud of myself too. 🤩
Another great video and l reckon you guys rock.
Lil, l like you, and your enthusiasm and your enjoyment that you genuinely display, along with your emotions, particularly when life's curveballs can test even the patience of a saint. There is nothing wrong with that and it shows that you are very much like everyone else, in that, we all handle trying and upsetting situations and experiences in our lives, just as Jake does in his own way, yes he reacts in a different manner to you, we all do, thats what us humans do, as we are all different, in many ways.
You and Jake are perfect for each other, in my humble opinion. 😊
Just keep on doing what you are doing and don't dwell too much on the negative comments from insensitive and callous people.
Enjoy your trip and thanks for sharing. 😊👍👍
☝️ Agree 100% with these comments, and eat what you damn well want, you don't need to explain yourselves. Unless you've travelled on the road people don't understand the enjoyment of a naughty Macca's, KFC or pie etc.. you are hardly unhealthy and screw anyone that is critical 🖕. Great vid guys,, patience is always tested on the road, as above we all react differently, and what you Jake may consider basic checks, may not be the same for Lil and vice versa. But in saying that you are a patient man, except for letting your tyres down 😂.. remember you are both awesome.. and have come together for a reason. It's great to see you are each other's biggest supporters rather than critics. Safe travels, see you on the next one 🤟
Go the chomps jake there worth every minute on the toilet 😅😅😂 ps we love getting up on Saturday and turning on you tube to watch you guys have fun 😊
How good are chomps! Oh that's so nice to hear! You've made our day! Thankyou so much for watching! See you on Saturday! ❤️
We love your work lil and Jake Very entertaining couple to watch keep up the good work.
Thank you so much Leesa! 🥰 we are so glad you enjoy watching and coming along for the ride with us. 👌🏼
Love your videos guys! You guys are so funny and have such great energy! My partner and I have been watching you guys religiously, and now we are up to date so really been looking forward to when you post! ☺️
Thankyou so much for this beautiful comment Rachel! It put a big smile on our faces! were so glad you enjoy our content, Thankyou so much for watching, see you on Saturday!
would love it if you could post map of where your going and camp sites. I'm still in the planning stage Tanks Pat
We leave to head up there in a couple of weeks time. Ssooo keen
You guys are going to have the most epic adventures!!!! 🤩🤩🤩
Nice video guys. Can you drop more maps/routes into your videos? Oh and you're not high maintenance at all Lil....you're a keeper.
Absolutely, we will make an effort to start to add more tags about locations. We use to do this heaps at the start but weren’t sure if people actually liked it!! 🤩 And thank you, you’re so sweet! 🥰🥰🥰
Thanks for sharing your high stress fun filled adventures :)
Thanks so much Jamie!!! Glad you enjoy watching a the chaos unfold. 😂😂😂
Just so positive. Loving the trip
Ohhh thanks so much Christian!! So stoked you’re enjoying watching. 🤩🤩🤩

first time watcher of your channel here, Having an awesome time watching your content. Was curious as to what camera you guys use. The film quality is top notch. Cheers
Cheers Isaac! For this video we're using a gopro hero 10, glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching! ❤️

Awww, that’s so damn kind Steph!! Thank you so much. Couldn’t be more glad that you enjoy watching and laughing along with us. 🥰🥰🥰 Feeling the love. 💕
i cant speak for everyone but i luv the fact you guys show the good the bad the ugly and you pair are naturals in front of the camera and im with you lil i would of pack the rear wheels of car with something to help raise the wheels to get the hitch off the ground , that could of went to shit ,😜 you pair really are lucky haha
Greg! What a lovely comment! We try our hardest to show real life and we're glad it's coming through! Good tip with the wheel chocking though! Could have really saved the rear bar on the car! Thanks for watching and can't wait to see you on the weekend! ❤️
Pretty hectic trip along the Gibb
It was unreal!!! Such a super fun time taking the extra side tracks as well. 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
You guys are gunna blow up on the tube ! Keep it up love it
Mark!!!! You absolute legend! Thank you so much, we hope so. 😍😍😍
A great laugh every time without fail, thanks guys! Are you making your way over to us on the 'Eastside'? I'll buy a shirt if you do 😉
Ohhhhh Belinda!!!!! 💕💕💕 I just saw your order. Thank you so incredibly much, we are so incredibly grateful for your support. 🫶🏼 We cannot wait to get to the Eastside!!! Cannot wait to get back to the beach. 🤩
It’s the least I could do, thank YOU for your ever educational, entertaining clips! You two crack us up. One day I hope we too will experience some of those amazing places you have. Take care in your travels. X
Absolutely stunning and so is the scenery too 😄 Watch out for those snapping handbags 🐊You definitely put a smile on my face 😁
Another amazing ep you guys, you have excelled yourselves again. I'm slowly catching up on your older episodes liking and commenting as I go 🥰
The Gibb had the most incredible scenery!! So much life and water and greenery. 🍃 thank you so much!! We are sooo grateful you’ve been loving them so much to binge watch some older ones. 😍
@@lilandjake My pleasure, I'm grateful for the amazing content you provide ❣
Lily, I disagree with the high maintenance comments, anything worthwhile is worth putting in the effort for and I think Jake knows this 😊and I think so too🥰 You two just keep enjoying yourselves, life is short.🎉
Gr8 episode guys, Its amazing the places you drag your van into.
Thanks so much Dazza!! Isn’t it epic, we love taking the road a little less travelled! Even if it means it comes to bite us in the arse later on. 😅
Lol love your Gibb travels 😉
It’s been one of the most unbelievable parts of our road trip so far!! Absolutely loved it. 🤩
Maybe time to invest in a portable radio for outside comms.. good vid though
We actually have some but always forget to get them out! Thanks for the reminder though!! 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
No you’re lovely Lil and even let Jacob keep the tractor 🚜 😝
I deserve a medal for that! 😂😂😂 thanks so much Mika. 🤩
get Lil to drive because as a navigator she needs to read just a little more of the details !!! well done Jake the award goes to you again sorry Lil
Haha, yes she does need to read into it a bit more sometimes but I can't complain, we wouldn't have gone anywhere without her! Thanks so much for watching again! See you on the weekend!
Thanks
Omg!!!! Thank you so incredibly much Wer Kar! 💕💕💕
My mum used to make us wait 30 mins after eating to swim lol cheers
Lol, I remember friends parents saying the same thing!!! What would happen if you only waited 29 mins? 😂😂😂
Mac Lil and Mac Jake, hahaha
😂😂😂 Have an epic weekend!!! 👌🏼
People are so freakin mean, too high maintenance????and cry too much???These people have obviously never been bogged to the axles towing a van in soft sand in the 40 degree heat.
Lil just be like - “What Ever Trevor”
You guys are a beautiful couple and should stay together forever and ever!
Amen
You too are perfect for each other😉🥰👍🏼
Awwww, thanks you guys. We are pretty bloody lucky to have found each other! 🥰🥰🥰
Yep, leave her at Kununarra
11:05... "No one here but us"... and the person standing behind you. 🤣 BTW, no mention of Windjana Gorge or Tunnel Creek. Are they still closed?
They literally arrived the last 5 minutes we were bogged I reckon! Yeah, they were shut unfortunately but that just means we can come back and visit them next time!! Woo! 🤩🤩🤩
Oh the Gibb River Rd tour begins with Lil n Jake🤣🤣🤣🤣 This will test your love and patience you have for each other!!!
Not that I’ve completed it yet, but take it steady. Sometimes you may need to take those big levels on an angle rather than 45 degrees. It’ll stop the tow bar from bottoming out like it did and will save your gear.
Good luck guys and looking forward to next weeks movements 👌🏻😛
Cheers Sheppard! Always great to hear from you! Yes good tip on the angle! Just like driving a lowered car.
Thanks for watching! ❤️
Apparently it’s fine! 😂 oh it’s a design flaw. Lol.
So funny, I (Lil) was so confused! 😂😂😂
So ruff on the gear haha
Good entertainment
Wouldn’t have visiting half the places we have if we weren’t a little wild and rough on our gear!! 😅 Wouldn’t have it any other way! So stoked you enjoy watching the chaos. 🤩
😂 High maintenance Lil nooo who would say that, if you want to be nice to poor Jacob ❤️ 👀 Bega are releasing Lactose Free Big M double choc, dairy farmers classic & Dare for the tradies 🎉Put out in our farmers newsletter yesterday you will probably have to wait till Darwin
Safe travels 👨🏻🌾🤙🏻
LISTEN 😂 I love the videos, f**ck the haters, you guys do you, if u didn’t ppl wouldn’t watch.. and the maccas thing.. sh*t really.. it’s your body, your life, live it! You both are healthy looking ppl so it’s shouldn’t have to be spelt out that you don’t eat healthy… good luck and keep smiling :)
Hahaha, thanks K D your totally right! Thanks so much for being on our side! We can eat what we want! Thanks so much for a lovely comment and thankyou for watching. See you next week! ❤️
I think you guys are perfect match :) dont think you are high maintenance at all.
Awwww, thanks so much Jay!! 🥰🥰🥰
Have you guys been in Darwin? Sure I’ve seen you at Mindil Markets and parkrun?!
Yes!!!!! We’ve absolutely loved Darwin so far. Such a small place we are realising, always running into people. 😂 thank you so much for watching! 😍
A lactose intolerant tradie? You must be joking! No iced coffees or choc milk is against the Tradie Manifesto and I reckon he's having a lend of you. Watch your back Lil.
I wish I could say he was lying. There’s been some pretty horrific, let’s call them ‘incidents’, that I have been witness to. 😂😂😂
@@lilandjake OK. You have me. I'm hitting the like subscribe button. X
No Lil you are so lovely he would be a fool to let you go
Awwww! Thank you so much Dianne! 🥰🥰🥰
Oh and to create even better memories at each and every destination , have some naughty sexy time together as it will give you lasting memories that only you 2 know of and can reflect together, that is if your not already doing that in your adventure. Rain ,Hail or shine make it happen. It will bring you 2 even closer together.👌🙏
Not all of us s have utube channels or stickers. Are we not allowed to leave a fingerprint to show we were there?
Yea fair enough Greg, that's just my opinion, it's not gospel, just what I prefer. Graffiti all you want! Thanks for watching!
@@lilandjake no worries. I would never graffiti though.
Girls are supposed to cry, stops blokes from doing even stupider things, like say, finding the submarine capabitilites of a caravan. :) Getting bogged, breakin' stuff is what happens when you leave the traffic and the cities. Have fun!
Cheers Graham! My mind thought of crazy ideas when you said submarine caravan, sounds like a great video idea! Thanks for watching legend!
Don't worry Lil, there's plenty of fish around.. your a very desirable young woman. play ya cards right, there might be a bit of room under my bed for your slippers.
I was waiting for the deep water but didn't see any....
It was deep enough to get some water in our caravan even with it taped up! 😅😅😅
Ditch the witch? Great vid non the less. Had a real bush tucker man feel to it. Is it enough for me to risk scratching my beautiful Prado by going there? I think a Tvan would take it better, now $110,000 though. Make your own I say. Top job guys, you're killing it !!!😆😄😃😁🤣
Haha, it's definitely worth a few scratches to see beautiful places, you can always fix scratches but soon you may not be able to go to these places anymore, the government loves to close anywhere that's fun! Yes t vans are a bit pricey hey! Thanks for watching! ❤️
