Hi all I'm heading from Tumbarumba to Cooma and would like to go via Tooma Drive Rd and the Elliot Way to Kiandra then through Adaminaby. Towing a 3 tonne off road van. Just wondering how steep and windy it is and if I should go this way ? Appreciate any feedback. Cheers

We have only recently bought our 'new to us' van, tried the fridge on 240v just after bringing it home and it seemed to work ok, thought we had better try it on gas today and it wouldn't start so tried on 240v again and nothing :( Any idea what may be the problem? Thanks in advance.

Hi guys, just wondering what type of incoming circuit breaker protects the 15A extension lead on your vans? in other words if i run kettle plus aircon plus oven all at once, will the circuit breaker trip first or will i melt the incoming 15A extension cord from the site outlet to the van?
