(Preview)
This morning I saw a rig doing more than 100kph on the freeway, and it made me wonder, what speed do others do? Does it depend on your rig? My b-i-l says 90kph in 4th gear is the best for economy for his Nissan Patrol towing a caravan. My friend says 80kph. He has an auto Mazda BT50 and tows a caravan also. Is t...

Cairns Climate
(Preview)
We're currently on our way to Darwin, where we intend to spend most of the winter (dry season). We'll then mosey over to Cairns and make our way down the east coast. I'm sure you guys can tell us when the weather starts to turn in Cairns so that we should plan to flee south.

Great GPS Site
(Preview)
I don't know if this has been posted before but it looks like it would be a great tool for checking out free camps. Jon is to blame for finding it. I wanted to see the campsite he is at in Qld, Fountain Springs. It lets you have an up close and personal look at these places. http://www.gps-data-team.info/...

Vacuum Flasks that keep liquids hot

We're wondering if anybody can recommend a brand of vacuum flask that actually keeps water and soups hot for long periods.
