Ceramic Coating on Campervan - Don't Laugh
(Preview)
I only heard of ceramic coatings the other day. I think it was that great story by Ivan about the guy washing his car 8 times in the caravan park. Then I watched video today with Justin from 'Trip in a Van' on Youtube, talking about his new customised LC. Jeez he spent a lot on it. And he had it ceramic coate...

Must've looked suss?
(Preview)
Not sure where I got this picture but thought that it may interest those who claim that authorities weigh only cars that look overloaded! This car (BT50?) certainly would attract attention although the rear of the car seems to be sitting higher than you'd expect. WDH? Cheers

Daft Question Maybe - New Campervan Decals
(Preview)
Sorry if this sounds like a weird thoughts/question. If I buy a new Campervan (not MH or Caravan) I'm thinking of asking them not to put the decals on it. You know, the stripes and builders name and all that stuff. Winnebago, KEA whatever. I'd rather just have a plain white van, that blends in a bit mor...

Planning Ahead 2WD v 4WD Roads - Is there an App?
(Preview)
I've been caught out in a rental Campervan once. Came to a section of 100kms of unsealed road, and the rental agreement stated only use sealed roads.

Another one. What next?

Another one. What we see here is illegal, leaving the vehicle unsafe and potentially uninsured? There are 3 issues. Saw this today and it only reinforces my belief that towing courses and aporopriate licences should be mandatory for all caravanners. Cheers P.S The tyres on the van were hopelessly u...

Hello Nomads How essential is a 12 volt air compressor for a grey nomad? I have a Land Cruiser which has a 12V plug in the back which presumably would take a 12V air compressor for putting air into my LC tyres as well as my caravan tyres. If deemed essential (or highly recommended), please recommend a bra...
