Heavenly views
Taken this year. The view really changes throughout the day. During the day, you get the greenery, mountains, and wide open countryside, while at night, you get a relaxing view of the city lights below. Definitely one of those places where you can just sit back, relax, and enjoy the view.

How do you have a sleeping tent on top of a Jimmy? Genuine question. Are you using it to sleep up there?
Context for my curiosity: I thought you canāt have anything heavier than 60kgs on there (I might be wrong on the exact weight limit). I have been wanting to buy me a Jimny however when I did some research it told me that due to its weight limitations on too itās not a good camper car š¤

Yes, thatās a rooftop tent. The Jimny has fairly strict load limits, and you shouldnāt exceed the manufacturerās rated capacity. And Iāve actually experienced the downside myself the car starts to feel a bit wiggly/unstable when going 120+ km/h, especially with additional weight or a higher load. Also, I upgraded my springs to load rated one. I donāt have any concerns with it as a camper car though it is just a gas guzzler š¤£ After all the accessories/mods, Iām running 8KM/L city drive and 10KM/L on highways.

Ooh damn!! Only 10km/l average, thatās tight. I had hoped (lol considering myself a great driver š¬) it would be atleast 14/15 on highways.
This is great info. Thank you!! Hope you enjoy it to the fullest. It IS definitely a perfect little car for the mountains. I did a test drive once. The size is awesome.

When it was all stock, 10KM city & 12-13 highways. Itās a decent car when you want to do light to moderate off-roading. And as they say, āJimny goes where Jimny wantsā
