Been offline for a week, and missed you all !

Catching up now on all I missed- seems life went on without me...lol

We took the new tug down the Hume to Melbourne and back, but just pulling the boxtrailer this trip. Its a long way from Newcastle to Melbourne in one hit !! but the Hume is almost dual carriage all the way except for a few Kms near Tarcutta..... Sydney is still a nightmare though.

I must say the new Territory did very well, (although not as good as the ad says). We filled up to start off from Newcastle, and again at Albury; which gave us about 800kms to the tank with economy of 9.4 lites to 100kms. Coming back we did marginally better with 9.3.
