    I'm just filling both tanks, 145 and 70 at mt dare, at this stage I'm still coming just a mad scramble to get things finished prior to leaving, the only thing is I will probably only be carrying water in containers.

    The desert crossing is less than 400kms. We all have plenty of fuel I think. I have 145. + 30 and am not concerned at all. I was probably going to take a jerry for just incase but if everyone has big tanks then There is no need.

    I will be running on my 35" cooper ST tyres that are about 85% and have a second spare for the roof.

    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.

    Yeah sweet, I am confident that I will be okay with my 170L of diesel then.

    The water bladder I ordered yesterday arrived at my house today. How's that for service, I have never had anything delivered to my house overnight before.
