Title: Hello from Urbenville
Post by: Brett P65 on June 06, 2012, 05:21:32 PM
New to site, live northern NSW have 2000 standard Landcrusier 4.2 after market TD and a 1997 dual cab rodeo 2.8 TD for vehicles and a Offroad camper trailer. have been out to Innamincka in 2009 and just a few weekenders here and there. Like most would like to do another big trip but time and $'s are an issue. Make the most and do some weekends not far from home.

Cheers

G'day Brett P65,
(http://www.hairfysh.com/images/Icons/Smileys/welcome.gif)
To MySwag.
A nice part of the state, each year at Easter we spend time at Levuka.
It's only a couple of hours up the Summerland H/way for us.
Plenty of great info here to help with mods on the camper or planning a trip or two.
Happy & Safe travels.
 :cheers:
