We are back from 15 wonderful weeks in Tassie. There has been earlier postings on the cost of getting to Tasmania and how that has turned some people off going there but really, if visiting for any length of time you will recoup the cost of the ferry. Tasmania really is a RV friendly state, so many beautif...

Am keen to purchase a camera to attach to the back of our van that will help see what is travelling behind us when on a long straight piece of road. Am I looking for a reversing camera or a rear view camera or are they the same thing? Advice on best buys much appreciated.

Hi all. We are wannabee newbies, currently shopping for our van and excited about heading off. We hope to take the coast roads, all the way to Perth, maybe a little further north of there but not too much. Has anyone any idea of the roads from Ceduna to Margaret River. Is there a coast road or one that isn't...
