OK all, fuel economy.........

OK, tyres
Had a good trip in on the Great Central Road, most was 90 to 100kmh.
Some bloody rough bits on the NT side around Docker River.

The Bridgestone Dueller AT's handled OK.

Was in the N.T. And as you would, had to see how the troll & pod handle 130 kmh!
I can report that we survived launch and re entry and had no dramas cruising at 130!...

Air on gave up! Seems my local regassed it with some new...

Plastic boxes were my first thought....until I gave up looking for something 450mm x 120mm.

Gavin
was up on the ute roof (putting some signs on the front of the pod) and happened to look at the hinge on the open pod door.
There was some cracks in the silicone joining the hinge to the body...

Not me, I just fitted LED's to all lights.
Can now leave them on for hours with no worries!

Would be possible if you really wanted to, just find the interior light circuit on the fuse block....

OK, had some good days so got a bit done.

Well, the short answer with my 2004 ute is NO.
