Then did a quick 700k 11 hour round trip to Denni to pick up my sons broken down ute.
Damn nice pics, your such a Yuppie now......wish I was,,lol,lol,lol...................... I have found no need for driving lights since I discovered that to use them is usually after Beer O'çlock ....................................you will find the old double sided tape works very well holding those baby CBs to the top of the dash pockets as well.......fitted a few and they hold on and need to be pried off if you do the surface prep right...
Your rig has nice wheels that suit the vehicle well, most seem to have ugly wheels that look way too small....

I don't know about the yuppie bit but we do a bit of night driving around home and the standard lights left a lot to be desired, double sided tape is whats holding the uhf in now and it's working great, wasn't to sure on the wheels when i first got it but there growing on me, doing a quick trip to wagga/tarcutta for the truck drivers memorial on the weekend and will be interesting to see how it is on a trip without towing.
Just got back from a trip to Wagga/Tarcutta, 15lph average for the trip.
That wasn't towing the van, started at 15.6 and dropped the whole trip, but regularly gets mid 15s towing 3.5 t 22.68.2 OB doesn't matter if there is a hill or a headwind.
Had a trip to Penrith on the weekend as my son was doing a Kayak training camp at the whitewater stadium, didn't take the van but the truck went well, was very comfortable and economy got down to 14.3 lph, I also caught up with a friend who had picked up a shocker hitch that I brought second hand in QLD a couple of months ago, he was up there at the time so it saved me getting it shipped down to VIC. We should be taking the van to Bendigo on the weekend so will try it out.

Smoother ride for the van is the main reason for it, the ride is a bit harsh compared to the grand though.
Found this for sale in the hunter valley area, it arrived today, I hit a roo while driving a mates Ram recently so this came up just in time.
Haven't updated this for a while either, did a trip to Nundle last year to pick up a canopy, took the van and made it a 2 week holiday , truck is still running great and gets better all the time.
