Extended Draw Bar - Pluses and Minuses
(Preview)
A few 2nd-hand caravans currently for sale have an extended draw bar. Apparently this makes it easier to reverse park, but I wonder if it makes it somewhat less stable to tow. I have read articles that say the further the weight is from the centre of mass, the more prone it is to swaying. What are the arg...

Bought the Clearview mirrors - WOW!

After the initial WTH?! of weird vision, I love these! Trial was driving from Caloundra to Roma last night. I had great visibility, and the blind spot mirrors are a god-send, especially in driving rain and low light. We aren't towing (yet), but because we got a non-standard tray (wider than the Mit...

You won't get a better year for wildflowers in the Wild West! After a great start to our winter, the mid- and lower-West's wildflower showing is at its best.

Grey water disposal
(Preview)
Hi all from reading other posts on other sites that it seems there is a real grey water problem. Do you let it go on the grass / trees that are near you or keep it and use a dump point on the move ????. If you are staying in one spot for some time i think the tank would fill and need to be emptied ????
