two wheel drive
(Preview)
Some years ago, the problem of wanting to go along some of the well known, and not so well known, off road tracks, (eg.) firm sandy beaches etc, was solved for me by a firm in Jolimont, WA. Our RV at the time was a Mazda "pop top" with a four cylinder diesel donk. My partner really wanted to travel...

Caravan suspension
(Preview)
Has anyone come accross this type of suspension? I have tried to post a pic to show details. It appears to have only one set of springs each side. This is on a van I have an interest in, and the rest of the van appears to be what we are looking for. I have only seen pics, not the van itself, as the manufactures ar...

Rust coloured towels and toilet paper
(Preview)
Loving white towels, I naturally took them away with us to the RED centre. Big mistake, no matter how well we washed they appeared grubby and particularly after using some caravan park machines. I will now be buying rust coloured towels for future trips, but one good thing has come out of our trip, is...

Caravan Storage in Brisbane
(Preview)
We are heading home to Brisbane soon to meet our new grandson and looks like we will need to store our van for a couple of weeks. Does anyone have anywhere they would recommend in the Brisbane area (preferably in the northern suburbs but not detrimental). Cheers MadenAus

Just wondering if anyone has used this type of fl...

TRUCK PARKING BAYS

After speaking to a few truck drivers, and from my own experience, these parking bays are NOT for caravans and motor homes overnight parking. These areas have been developed for the truck drivers to take scheduled rests as part of their fatigue management obligations. Oversize vehicles can only mo...

tyre pressure sensors
(Preview)
If, like me, your RV has duel rear wheels fitted, it is adviseable to fit these sensors on the valves. This idea is so that you won't run a flat on a drive wheel, and possibly not notice it, 'til it is too late. They come in packs of four, or six, and have a small readout panel that sits on the 'dash, keeping you...
