Hi all I have been chatting with quite a few truckies of late and one of their major concerns with us Caravaners Is the amount of people that are not contactable via UHF and as a result have a great deal of concern about passing safely. What truckies need to know is that you can help them pass with safety for...

Hello Everyone, I am still new to this and hope this isn't too silly a question. My HiAce has just been fitted out.....it has no bull bar though. Should I get one put on, if I plan on doing a lot of travelling? Also, can I get a bike rack on the back, or should I just put the bike inside? Thankyou, I love this for...

Hello all, I'm new here and I have not searched the forum so I have little doubt that the 'subject' above has been discussed already. Having retired 2.5 years ago I knew my wife and I would be on a tight budget. No problems with that and I have been surprised at some of the support we oldies do get. However...

Hi to all you happy campers, If anyone is stopping at Clem Walton Park down on the lake (Corella) Camps 7 # 301 I am going to be setting up there for a while. I will be camping just a little away from the main area where all the vans set up. Can be seen just an easy stones throw across the water on the point. I...

I was not happy with the answers I received yesterday, so I was back into research mode today, and I found that there are regulations applying to shackles, basically the breaking limit of EACH shackle must exceed 1.5 times the ATM of the towed trailer. This is defined in both ADR62 and AS4177. It is bes...

Hi gang, as a newby to caravaning I am confused with which way to go solar or generator. Do people use generators to charge batteries of to connect directly to appliances? We only usually go for a week and do not have either a genny, batteries or solar as yet. We don't have aircon only the basics, so not...
