I've just got back from my 1st solo trip outback (20days 3700kms). I ended up only going as far as Alice and I didn't end up doing the Oodnadatta Track, which was just as well because the weather suddenly got wet and wild and I would probably still be stuck at William Creek. I got a motel room at Spuds Roadh...

Looks like I might have found the Mother Lode, here. I'm 72 and all I have is an old dog, an old land cruiser and an 18' caravan. I do a good impersonation of Clink in Hogan's Hero's. I know NOTHING about caravans or the nuances of towing them. I also believe in safety in numbers when travelling. Hoping for y...

Well I'm going to bite the bullet and go my 1st outback trip on bitumen from Adelaide to Whycliffe and back via William Creek on the Oodnadatta Track (if the N.T. border is still open). I've been on an organised bus trip outback before but never driven myself. I'll be living in the in the back of my x-trail...

Hi All I have made the decision and starting to look at campervans. My question is do I need a 4WD? I am looking at 2003 Kombi Van ATM. I do not want anything big, something simple. Can any of you ladies respond with what sort of rig you are travelling in? Thanks Janis

New to this site, but have been looking for too long without any action on my part! I have travelled around this great Country most of my life, but mainly roughing it. Because I have friends in Arnhem Land and want to visit there one last time. I have decided to invest in a 4x4 camper. The wet season will...

For various reasons I only managed to get out of Melbourne in late May, so basically I moved from cold to cold more than I stopped until I finally reached (warm) Queensland. Having now stopped for a while, it finally hit me that I don't really know what I'm doing. Am I traveling for the sake of it or am I basi...

Hi. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to employ someone to negotiate the purchase of a recreational vehicle on behalf of a buyer? I am keen to purchase a motorhome, and have a general idea of what I want, but lack the technical knowledge to feel confident in purchasing it on my own. I once employed a real...

I saw a comment elsewhere about a newbie mistake of taking "too much food". As a newbie, this has been bugging me as I can't see it, particularly solo which means that I'm carrying (ballpark) 150kg less mass in tow vehicle/caravan than if there were two of us. For me, making a meal is part of my (new) lifes...
