I stuffed up a river crossing today. Concrete bottom but covered in deep soft sand. Was stuck in the middle for 10 minutes or so, not moving. Eventually managed to get out but water around my feet. ...

We have a 2006 Ex Telstra TD42i which I converted to a remote area tourer about 9 years ago. We have been travelling with it full time for the past 5+ years & it's seen a fair bit of Australia....
