Hey All
Thinking about our trip next year (will create a proper thread for this) but what are everyones thoughts on taking the Expanda on the Tanami Track?
We are already doing the GRR (Gibb River Road) as part of the trip but there is not a lot of information out there about the Tanami.
Some people say "no way" some people say "depends on the conditions and recent weather" and others "yeah should be fine"
It used to be known as the one of the worst roads around but in recent years it has supposedly become a more reasonable track/road to tackle...........
I remember originally when I asked Jayco about the GRR about a year ago they advised "yeah sure just make sure you drive to the conditions" but as we know the "Outback" models have their limitations.
It would be a huge shortcut for us to get to Alice Springs and Uluru from Kununurra otherwise it would be around the long way, which is fine if that ends up being the consensus and better option.
Not concerned about the Prado at all, it will eat up this track, more around the Expanda, all the usual mods for the GRR and other roads are being progressed and thought through around dust proofing, sealing, glueing, underbody protection etc
Anyone on here taken their van on the track in recent years?
