    Have you worked out mileage cost or usage for the trip?

    And is there anything you'd do different next time??
    Fuel usage for the trip minus the last drive from Esperance to Perth was 1485 litres for 8873 km which is 16.74 L/100km. That's off my odometer which reads less than it should so the actual kms should read more but I can't be arsed working that out so I will stick with 16.74 L/100km.
    Cost for diesel was $2493.

    Things I would do differently next time.
    Take my own accommodation( hopefully have a camper trailer one day)
    Haven't worked out accommodation costs but it was a bloody lot.

    Would've liked more time in most places so more time would be good

    Christmas holidays suck to do any touring around because most accommodation had to be booked in advance to get anywhere decent which limited what we could do before we had to be at the next place we were staying.

    Leave the kids at home...or wait till their older. They will probably be adults before we do anything like this again lol.

    Paul.
