    LOL it's a beast alright, getting into the drivers seat is not to bad but getting down is going to take some practice.

    I would normally read the owners manual so I know how ever thing works but it's over 700 pages for the car and 350 pages for the audio/GPS sat nav so it's going to take a while. But I have learnt that I only need to have the remote door lock in my pocket, touch the door handle and it unlocks, press the start/stop button to turn the engine on and off. Then just touch a button on the door handle to lock it

    Unfortunately there is no document on the extras that have been installed so being doing some research to work it out, starting to understand all the extra wiring which is done quite neatly. Has a ARM twin compressor and found out the hard way they don't use standard quick connect fitting, I ran it the other day but even though it has a separate air tank it didn't hold pressure so will have to look into that.

    LOL have a bit of buyers remorse with the fridge I got, probably should have got a draw fridge. I have to get on to the tail gate to get into the fridge and problem with that is the tail gate with the GVM upgrade is too high, going to need a step.

    Worked out that the solar panel is hooked up to the Redarc BCDC charger that charges the lithium axillary battery, with the fridge running full time and I have not driven the beast today, just checked and battery has 13 volts so seems to work fine.

    No hurry to get the 270 degree awning but also looked at hardshell roof top tents, the ones from Kings look quite good and half the cost or other brands.

    Quite a contrast driving the XR6 ford ute compare to the beast, the ute is much more relaxed but love the power of the beast
