We had a 3L auto GU and it used approx 21-23L/100 when towing this same van, depending if the muddies were on, but it was 200kg lighter back then too (ATM was 2400kg, now it is 2600kg). The GU never...

Here is what I did with our ARB awning. I added another couple of lengths of sail track, one to the back of the mounting extrusion and one to the ally channel that rolls out with the poles attached....
I really like the National Luna fridges but their price scares me, actually would have loved to have bought an Explorer at the time, although I did consider them in the begining, the price sent me...

Pics of the spare wheel carrier I built as where they had the spare was bonkers because the tyre was too big to fit properly and took 2 people to remove and refit, now it takes one person and it can...
A couple more pics of it unadulterated then the mods started....
Here are some pics and details of our little 16' Sportscruiser caravan. It tows like a dream and trucks passing by don't affect it at all. These used to get assembled in Australia (they came from...
The MSC having a holiday on Fraser Island
Innamincka and Coongie Lakes
Here is a couple of pics that someone had a play with and turned the Y62 into a ute, not too sure if they will pay for the conversion but who knows!!

The black plastic clips are for my wheelchair, just fold the back rest down and push the wheelchair into place, give it a little shove so the foot plate locks into the clips and pull the bungy cord...
Just got a new set of boots for the MSC and they change the look of the patrol for the better I reckon (still have the originals and they will go on for the really long stints in between trips). A...
Here is a couple of pics of our old setup on our first GU. The extension awning off the side of the main awning was just another 6' x 8' tarp with rope sewn in along the long side (cut the 'D' rings...
Yep just heard it myself and shed a tear. R.I.P Ritchie
That would have been an experience to camp at the bottom of the rock. I didn't walk around when we were there we just took pics from a distance, but if I can get the missus out there walking around...
Stropp, yeah I had a similar experience with a female copper, when she pulled me up for speeding, she walked up and said all the usual crap....then asked if I wanted to step out and check the...
