My journey from a passionate off-roading enthusiast to a content creator has been an incredible ride, and it all started with following what I truly love.

Back in 2017, I decided to launch my YouTube channel to share my adventures. I never expected it to grow the way it did, but over time, my love for exploring the Australian outdoors and just being real about it seems to have really clicked with people.

By 2020, the support from my viewers was overwhelming. It gave me the confidence to take the next big step, going full time as a content creator. That shift opened the door to new opportunities and bigger projects, including the launch of the Tyler Thompson online store. Through the store, I began offering a range of clothing and merchandise, with the idea that proceeds would help fund future adventures and allow me to keep creating high quality content for my audience.

In 2025, we hit a massive milestone, we bought our first property. It was a huge moment and something we’d been working toward for years. One of the first projects was fitting out our shed to support content production and future vehicle builds. But just five weeks after moving in, we were hit by a major flood. It was a bit of a setback, but in true fashion, we’ve just taken it as part of the journey. Right now, we’re getting stuck into the start of our rebuild and kicking off the house renos. It’s definitely been a curveball, but also just another part of the story we’re stoked to share with the community.

Over time, the whole thing has grown into something bigger than I ever expected. We’ve now got Burto on board full-time as our mechanic, keeping the builds rolling and the gear in top shape and Demi helps out where ever she can between uni, raising the kids, and keeping everything moving behind the scenes, it’s definitely a team effort.

I’m beyond thankful for the 125k YouTube subscribers, my loyal patrons, the fantastic Instagram community, and everyone else who’s supported me throughout this ride. Your ongoing encouragement has been a constant source of motivation, and I’m truly humbled to have you all along for the journey.
