    To all the other guys your all more than welcome on this trip. As it gets closer things will start to become clear in relation to a plan.

    At this stage there was some talk by a few that they may do a double crossing from QLD being that your on the wrong side of the desert.

    I intend to head up to Birdsville and Meetup with QLD members and do the double crossing too.

    In relation the Camper Trailers? I have a Camper and will likely tow it to Birdsville and leave it there. Do the double crossing without the trailer using an OzTent then travel down through the Flinders Ranges in the Camper Trailer. I would encourage anyone thinking of towing a Trailer to think about doing the same thing. If you are adamant about towing a trailer then it MUST BE a Rated OFFROAD Trailer only! A 6x4 with 6 stud wheels is Not an OFFROAD trailer. I need to be Very Clear about this. There may well be a very big group and the Simpson Desert is littered with try hard trailers that simply should never have been taken out there. Everyone will be travelling heavy and a broken trailer will need to be abandoned and your gear either put on your roof or the roofs of others.

    I would appreciate it if every effort was made to limit the camper trailers and then everyone is in the same boat.

    Looking forward to this trip.

    Cheers MR

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
