Why is it every time I Google a caravan question/problem I find pages of confusing often contradictory information? I'm currently checking all functions on my J/Heritage. Got to the 5000 Breaksafe factory installed in the Heritage. Press the test button and battery shows red and I'm aware the 12V 7...

You camp right on the river or further back if you desire with plenty of room. Lots of firewood within walking distance, skip bins at the entrance and a free camper friendly...

We need to buy a new battery for our van (the old one was in it when we purchased van). When we free camp we run lights, pump, maybe tv. Our fridge is 3 way so no fridge. We have 2 solar panels up top. But being a naïve female (hubby wont use computer) am not sure what type of battery to buy. Looked at site sugges...

Well, at the suggestion of Kath (Kaid), here are some details of my 1991 Hino Rainbow.

Looked at mine this morning and there is not a lot of material eaten away, it's an aluminium anode in a suburban HWS. Mind you, when I took it out whol...

Hi Nomads, We are upsizing our caravan (to 1200kg tare) and need to get a better tow vehicle. We are very limited with $$ budget and are looking at around $6K. We are considering a 3L turbo Jackeroo, 2.8L Pajero and 2.8L Nissan Patrol. We would like any and all feedback to help us decide on the best vehicle...
