When you think about it your only really expense is fuel. Your going to eat weather on the road or at home.. I find myself eating less when on the road.

500 to 1000 on fuel pending where you are driving to/from plus setting up your rig but most people have it pretty sorted it doesn't need to be a monster stock 4wds do this route. More just a few spares remember the more you carry the more strain on the vehicle and the more fuel used. Tyre pressures and correct speed should see everyone through.

Yes, definitely family orientated, the actual crossing will be anywhere between 400 and 700 km totally dependant on what is organised later down the track (higher fuel economy than normal)and obviously the cost of getting to the star point and back home from the end) you could work the distances out....there are heaps of info online about average fuel economies for the crossing. (We are coming from Perth and taking 3 weeks to get there do the crossing and get home).will be a trip you would never forget.

Thanks all for the info,
This is a trip I can defiantly do so will have
To sit with the family to discuss.
I'm doing a month in the cape in July/aughust
So this would be something different.

After 10 years of doing trips in the GU
If finally traded the old girl, hope you
Don't mind a cruiser tagging on!!!

Hi all...this trip sounds pretty good....hey Darren..I am just picking up the GQ from melbourne on the 24th april and will have to completely set it up from stock ....time and funds permitting would it be a problem if I had to drop in on it at late notice or does it need to be in concrete with a lot of notice...cheers

No problem at all mate. The trip is set for 2014 plenty of time to get it sorted. Work out your priorities in terms of mods and get started mate, going to be a great trip.

Now to decide on which patrol to take? Gq petrol or GU diesel, the Q already has a 140 ltr tank and roof top tent but it won't take much work to swap them to the GU.
