Hi, opened my van today to get some things out and it was so hot inside. 35 degrees outside and with cover on van and all locked up felt heaps hotter in the van. All the windows are shut so no air movement at all. What do others do to reduce heat in stored van over summer? I don't have a shed or carport available...

If you are on the Sunshine Coast, and looking for a dog sitter, for a day or a week, we recommend Amanda. She took our boy (Akuma, 14 week old kelpie) and he had a wow of a time with Amanda and her two miniature schnauzers. Her yard is well-fenced and dog friendly, her home is also dog friendly, and on meetin...

Over the years we have seen a number of unfortunate caravaners who have had accidents but their van has not separated from the tug. NSW now requires a warning device on your breakaway device just in case the battery goes flat, I always check the battery in mine prior to leaving home simple press of a butt...

If money was no object our travelling rig would be the same layout as the Coachmen but built more rugged and heavy duty to go on unsealed roads, not off-road, just those long stretches of dirt often found in the North & West. The trailer would contain a Suzuki Jimny, a 250cc trail bike plus a 12' tinny...

I feel the climb up the range here is one not to be done unless you have plenty of grunt as it is a long, unrelenting climb up and no easy trip down on your brakes. I suggest you park the van at the freecamp at Thora which is Ok, and drive up for the day. There are much worse climbs, I'm sure, but this one is not goi...

I have seen the new Chief and had the hand over. Just peeeeerfect. My choices in colours in and out have exceeded my expectations. Why the bugga and one more sleep? Well someone fitted a fresh water tank making it 3 instead of 2 fresh water and 1 grey water. The drainage tap would no way drain so the dealer d...

The big day has arrived. Slight delay as the 9.30am handover has been delayed and is now 11.30am. Nooooo problem. It just means I will get to Greens Lake (the testing grounds) and fun place in Central VIC late afternoon now. Spose it gives the local natives more time to cut the grass down lakeside Ma...
