Which is the best way to store/carry diesel, Plastic or Metal containers? Both are yellow. I asked at the store and got, "Dunno". I'm assuming metal but I thought I would ask. Thanks, Nomes.

Hi all, Does anyone have one of the above and how do you use it if no 240v is available? (Free Camping). I have done a little thinking on the matter and pretty sure I know how to go about it but just before I purchase I thought I'd ask the question. It has a 700w motor.

I often see this question on the forum, so I have attempted to provide a simplified explanation in the solar sub section (inside Techies). If you are one of the many who feel you need this type of information I hope you find it helps your understanding.

Can;t help but notice the amount of vans both small & large behind fully loaded vehicles here in WA with NO WDH's. Also the amount that come into free camps at 8-9 pm & gone before daylight; seems more like a mission against the clock rather than a holiday.. JC.

Just arrived at Ban Ban Springs (Sth Qld). Lots of other RVs here. Had a smooth trip from Westwood (west of Rocky). Passed oodles of RVs heading north.

A Drover walks into a Bar in Western Qld with a pet crocodile by his side. He puts the crocodile up on the Bar and turns to the astonished patrons. "I'll make you a deal. I'll open the crocodile's mouth and place my 'manhood' inside...then the croc will close his mouth for one minute. "Then he...

We/I have been looking at vans for a couple of years now trying to find the one that suited our needs. The closest we have got to the one that ticked all the boxes was when we checked out a Jayco Silverline 24ft model with the recliner chairs in the front. To day we went and rechecked that model (2015 new). No...

Spread the weight evenly and no issues re weight. Used a bucket and mop detergent and did a good job. I sure would like to be able to get that wet look all over the...

For example is there a portable option available. We sometimes do trips where no free camping is in...
