    Reckon a few might change their mind given another decade or two! I’ll go with the comfy bed too. Gone are the days of thin bits of foam & a bottle of Stones.

    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.

    A really comfortable oversized camping chair with foot rest and built-in drink cooler

    Hmm I guess that's probably more of a nice extra than most important piece of equipment

    Coming from Victorian perspective The most important is warm sleeping bag,then a bag that keeps your clothes dry.

    Definitely warm sleeping bag, doesn't matter if you are sleeping on just the ground or rocks as long as you are warm. Nothing worse than a cold nights sleep, and trust me I've had a few.

    no fire+no sleeping bag+up in the hills=man spooning

    i also have to go with the bed being decent, only because i have a bad back and can wake up very sore 20 times during the night if its not. other than that i would say the matches to light a fire.
