I have posted a few questions before & read lots of responses for a couple of postings but I am still unsure. The biggest problem seems to be is if a suburban 22lt gas/elec hws is hot enough to get the ecotherm to heat the van with very cold outside temps.

I am going to be parked up and out of the way over the January break and thought I might do a little maintenance. My first issue is those black marks that get on the rubber or vinyl strips that go between the joins of the caravan sides and front. How do you remove the marks and clean these strips? I have tried c...

What do you do with glass jars and the like when travelling? Do you leave them in the cupboards or pack them separately with insulation? Any other tips for not spilling or breaking things when travelling?

Hi All First post from an almost Grey Nomad (sometime first half 2019 to start our Big Lap!) We will have a motorhome-with-toad combination, and will transfer our current two NSW E-tags to these vehicles. However a question has occurred to me: If the tag is on the toad windscreen, will it also incur its...
