We are considering upgrading and want to know the best method for privately selling our Campervan. It appears that it would be best to sell the Camper ourselves and not trade it in, we would like to know what experience some of our fellow nomads have had and with which sites. We are located near Cabool...

Hello - I apologise if this topic has been done before but this is my first post. My partner Colin and I have just bought our first poptop and are so excited. It has all the fitments for a TV but we were wondering what the best size TV is and price wise. We have a 16'7 Regent Poptop. I would so appreciate an...

Hi all, when we bought our van the 12v system was powered by a deep cycle lead acid "wet" battery which, in the 2002 Jayco Heritage, is located under one of the seats, possibly installed by the previous owner. We woke up one morning to a horrible smell, the battery had "cooked" dur...

I arrived home from Innamincka/Moomba this afternoon. I left last Thursday afternoon to meet the load up the Strezlecki Track. A lot of confusion due to lack of phone coverage, but all worked out in the end. Last week I did a quickie to Melbourne before going NE. The week before, I came home from SW Qld...
