Hi all, I have a 2020 Isuzu D Max Dual Cab Ute LSM which has Line Detection. I found that "YES" it has it's advantages and is there for a safety purpose.

Hi Folks, I'm thinking of hiring a campervan in Tassie for a week quite soon. The same size as the one in my Avatar. But "she who must be obeyed" is designed for hot climates and will freeze! So I'm trying to think of something we could take with us, on a plane, that would take the chill off at night. Gas...

Hi Could anyone advise where I might acquire a couple of these hubcaps. They are 150mm diameter. Tyre fitter broke the lugs off when fitting new tyres. I have searched the internet but no luck as yet. Thank you Des -- Edited by desertfox on Saturday 6th of August 2022 02:31:28 PM

I find it difficult at times to apply the clip to secure down the top of my Coromal Navigator camper trailer. The thread on clamp would be perfect. If it was just 20 or 20 cm longer. Life would be much easier. Has anyone else had this experience?

There is another way to grey nomad. A trailer sailer can provide both a caravan on land and free water view camping. Very occasional use of a caravan park means you can grab a better long shower and do your laundry if needed whilst generally saying goodbye to overcrowded campsites and funds draining ca...
