Welcome to the gang relle15, enjoy here and out in the playground.

Just make sure you keep the Tug and Aluminium TeePee below max weights and you should remain friends with the traffic boys and girls.




Keep Safe on the roads and out there.

G'day Relle 15 and welcome to the forum from us as well.  Don't forget to try the two ongoing games here - 'Who is This' in the 'I Digress' section and 'Pick this Place' in the 'General' Section - a great source to find new places to visit.  Hope you find the van of your dreams - but as Dougwe says - watch the weights!.

Yes thank you, we are looking forward to it once we purchase the van, and knowing which is best suited as there are so many out there, we want full offroad as well .
