    The time has come.`

    We are now the legal owners of an OKA expedition vehicle - details later when we actually have posession of it. (Hopefully we'll be able to collect it in January).

    So our Patrol & Tvan are up for sale.

    Rather than create the longest post I've ever made here (& yes I know a few have been pretty long) I have created a blog post with extensive info & pics of what is a pretty unique, built for purpose combo.

    In a nutshell -> Ad.jpg

    2006 4.2TDi ex-Telstra Remote area Camper.
    Patrol Sold after 11 years of ownership Replaced with 2006 OKA NT Expedition Truck. Cummins, Allison & lots of goodies

    It's taken a lot longer than we expected, but we are now back 'on the road', currently sweltering in SA. For anyone interested here a squiz inside (& out) of the OKA.

    I’ve had a good look at this beast in the flesh and it’s bloody impressive. The engineering is next level, yeap I’m jealous.
    Only criticism I have is that I didn’t get to take it for a drive, but that was my own fault.

    Enjoy Cuppa & Mrs Tea - living the dream.
    Cheers

    A new blog post fresh off the printing press.
    We've only been back on the road for 6 weeks & we have come to a stand still.
    But we are enjoying it.

    Mate, you gotta stop causing pandemics and floods each time you step into the outback I like the poptop style camper on the OKAs and thank you for the beautiful wildlife photography. I am looking forward to the next blog. Good luck with your trek into the unknown conditions north.
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.

    A new blog post in which we cross the recently flooded Channel country & head to the Red Centre for a bit of 4wd adventure. Ruby Gap, some of the Binns Track & then a 1600km 'side trip' to drive the Sandy Blight Junction Road.

    Very jealous of your travels, tried to convince my wife to do same thing but she isn't willing to be away from kids and grandkids. Keep having fun.
