My new van has a ball tare weight of 160 kg GTM 2970 kg ATM 3300 kg Tare 2584 kg Our current tug 2009 NT Pajero is unsuitable for this van and we are looking at either the Mazda BT 80 or the Ford Ranger Raptor with a GVM upgrade on either. I need to know if one is better than the other for ease of towing. The ford i...

I remember when I was growing up that if I went on a trip or heard about someone's travels then it was described as a "journey". Now it seems that everything someone does in life has to be described as a "journey". We don't go on a diet anymore, we embark on a journey of weight loss. We don't get over a tragedy...

Morning all, Had the little fold up boat trailer booked in to get the Blue slip paper to go ahead and get registered for the first ever rego here in NSW. They told me before hand it takes 20 minutes with the paper work filled out. All good looks brand new. Yep never used. Brought it in 2007. 20 minutes later h...

A couple of weeks ago we travelled to Denmark, WA. I wave at anyone towing a van, camper trailer or anything that looks like a holiday load. I estimate at least 60 vehicles passed by that i waved to. I received two waves back. I checked the front of my car and could not see any of my footy team colours or stic...

Hi folks, I have noted that when someone types a URL into a message it does not present itself as a clickable link. To open the link you need to highlight it, copy it and paste it into the address line. Links inserted properly using the link tool still work OK for me. The problem only occurs on this forum, no...

Sadly, very sadly, my poor 2003 Jackaroo is finding the task of hauling my van more than it can easily handle and I think it will not be long before I am forced to replace it. I no longer have more than a passing interest in cars; providing it has AC and a comfortable driving seat that's all I want. I intend to...

OK rather than hijacking another thread I thought I would start a license discussion. So if you buy a 4x4 and a caravan, any combination, you can hit the road without anything but a car license. But if you buy a motorhome/campervan and it's over 4.5t then you have to have a endorsed license. So where's...
