    I just found your channel. Awesome context (thanks again Alexandre for the 3d models).
    How did you manage to spend just that on supermarket/food/groceries?
    We are doing the lap atm and food costs and arm an a leg.
    Also with $90 at the crocs and $117 at Sovereign Hill how did you manage to just spend $248. WA national park fee is $15 every time (we hot the 4 week for $60)
    That's some impressive saving on expenses. I cannot even fathom how you managed to do it that cheap.

    Hey guys! Love what u've done with the delica. I'm from Australia too and also have the same l400 delica but a 96. I just wanted to ask when do u guys lock ur centre differential? What type of terrain do u use it on? I've used 4H AWD mode plenty of times but never used the centre differential lock. I heard that it can cause transmission windup if used incorrectly. Thanks for sharing ur journey! With much love from Perth 🖤
