After a few days traveling around the UK, I had the great joy of being able to see Tom Sheppard again, which was both humbling and enlightening. I hope to be half as healthy as he is in his 80s. It has been my highlight of 2023, and he even agreed to an interview. Tom is the author of the...

While in the UK, I also drove around the countryside a bit, and out to Devon where I met up with Mac MacKenny ( https://www.driventoextremes.co.uk/ ) , who has forgotten more about expedition planning than I have ever learned. Was great to see him again and do a podcast on his horse farm.

We added a Front Runner 3/4 rack so we can use the safari windows in the game parks (it is also quieter on wind noise) and then mounted a 40 liters of fuel in jerry cans to the rack, along with 4 Maxtrax. We put 20 liters of water up there too, which has a hose for showering. In the back, we...

Hi all, Sincere apologies for abandoning this thread. I will spare you the excuses. We finally have the Grenadier in Durban, which took many months longer than expected due to the global supply chain issues. I am in Africa now and will have more time to answer questions, and have a lot more time...

While in in the UK, I was able to use the Grenadier is a general travel vehicle, exploring the history and small village of England. England wouldn't be complete without a proper English Breakfast A drive along the southern coast to Devon I parked the Grenadier in front of the Grenadier...

I first took delivery of the Grenadier in London, at the Ineos HQ right in the city. Time to shake of the RHD cobwebs right in one of the most traffic congested cities in Europe/UK, LOL Wouldn't be right not to tag the car minute one ;)

I just arrived in Cape Town with the Grenadier, and am so looking forward to meandering my way north. It has been far too long since I posted a trip to the forum (sorry). I arrived in Joburg at the end of June, and have enjoyed a few weeks of exploring the country, then picking up the Grenadier...

All new Goose Gear systems are lighter and less expensive, and come flat-packed for shipping. Be still my beating heart! These regular cab tray bed Prospectors are my favorite. I really like the Rivian R1T. It just desperately needs 18" wheels. It is like putting high heels on Usain Bolt...

Totally!

GPFactor just released this all-in-one Redarc system that is plug and play. It can even be spec'ed with a 50 or 100ah lithium battery. OK4wd has this new Starlink box setup, which includes the inverter and incorporates the antenna in the lid. Clever. Always cool to see Jonathan's FJ40 still...

we are just setting up the Expedition Portal booth at OVEXPO west and I snapped a few photos of the surrounding booths.

Thank you. Great catch!

I will check with Matt on this too.

I will get right on asking those questions and reply as soon as I get feedback. We are anxiously awaiting the pricing info too.

We were fortunate to drive the Grenadier (North America Specification Prototype) in November, and do have the ability to ask technical questions of their engineering team. So post up any questions you have and we will do our best to answer them. Also, there is some additional information in our...

Hey Todd! Always good to see your feedback. We were the only journalists at the testing center operating in that capacity. Jonathan was there for different, but equally important reasons. He received permission to write about his experience a few weeks after our exclusive drive was published...

Bumpitty bump bump.

One of our team members (Paula) is selling her near new CVT Shasta EV Summit Stargazer Hybrid Roof Tent with extended fly, annex, rain fly, and floor. She is also selling her Gen. 2 Tacoma CBI OffRoad bed rack. Tent was used twice. Rack has been on the truck for just over a year. No notable...

A preview of the lift

I screwed that up. Did a quick google search and it said 19 gallons, but you are absolutely correct. 23 gallons (same as the Prado)...
