Doing it Tough
« on: November 30, 2014, 06:25:29 PM »
I saw this rig at Lake Wallaga  couple of weeks ago  :o

Check out the 4wd in the shadow near the front awning, it was either a Patrol or a Prado and it went on the trailer under the boat. The golf cart was just for running around the caravan park  ;D ;D ;D

Wow that makes an awesome motor home for short people. The denning double dockers had the worst head room in them, the smallest set of stairs and was like driving a block of flats, good on the open road terrible everywhere else.
The brakes on them took a lot of getting used too, air over hydraulic.........you had too jump on them like your life depended on it for any thing to happen at all.

Very cool but, nearly as good as yours hey Keith ?

Cheers Matt.  :D

We have seen quite a few of these in our travels in WA. One guy we met used 50L of fuel per 100km. Crazy.

I saw something similar up at Rainbow Beach and he was also towing a trailer, but in his Trailer was a 4WD and a small 2 person helicopter.

I wouldn't want to know what it cost, but if you can afford to buy and run it then good on them.
