We take on the Gibb River Road tomorrow, all the way to Mitchell Falls and Kalumburu. Plan on leaving the van at Drysdale River Station. Blaze, I promise to slow down for road works, in fact I think I will be taking the whole trip pretty slowly. Been here in Kununurra since Monday, getting a new bull b...

Can't find the threads about rear view cams and porta potti cracks so I thought I'd combine the two. My auto sparky fitted the rear view cam yesterday - a wireless one. He was very professional - threaded the wiring out of sight behind the hood lining and door frame trim out through a grommet at the back of...

From a cousin in the district... Fantastic! It's been over 18 months since the flooding and we've been single lane with lights since then. It will be strange to not have to stop and wait. http://www.suratbasin.com.au/news/bridge-demolition-teams-move-in-to-bring-down-sir-/1954555/ I wou...

As a newcomer to caravan life I have bought a Abbey Spectrum twin axle gmv 1740 and want some advice on the best caravan mover. Is it best to go with all wheel drive or just the two axles being driven. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I was just reading some posts on another forum (albeit about four years old) on the lack of insulation and leaking seals causing very bad rotting in RVs. Just wondering if this is still a problem in modern/current vans or if anyone has had problems like this.

I have looked at a few motor homes and many only have 1 9kg gas bottle. I would like to carry a spare, where do you guys with a motorhome put it. I am not keen on having it inside, I would be thinking of fitting a rear storage box, but would it be safe in there, any information and suggestions welcome.
