Old Garmin 510 + topo maps. Only one that has voice commands in the outback. Mates have expensive in dash VSM's. Not one of them has voice commands in the Simpson desert. Sure it shows you where to go, but doesn't talk to you. The vsm map detail is probably sightly better. Garmin topo and my...

No quite true about Rhino track mounts. When fitting the rail type roof racks you have to pull your roof lining out and there are metal parts to put in the roof and then put your roof lining back in ? With the Rhino track mounts they are rivetted to the roof. No need to remove the roof lining...

Another good thing about the Engel You can unscrew the cig plug and remove, and get an antivibration screw plug, great for those outback corrugated tracks. Had the Engel for 3 years, running well, dragged it all over the outback, only prob with the 40lt on a long outback trip is you can't get...

Cheers Guys Will call GIO tomorrow and ask. Was going to fit a X country top mount, if i can get this for a better price. I will give it ago. Heading out back again in 3 weeks. Nice to have it fitted before then.

Forget gas bottles Coleman dual fuel. 5litres of unleaded fuel ran it easy for 3 weeks in the out back. Coleman oven on top and hot plate covers all those times when campfires we love aren't possible. Like my new little BBQ the Cadac Safari Chef, great for those road side lunches, couple of...

2006 str 151000, just staring on 2nd engine. After turbo impellor failure

Hey Guys After sucking one turbo impellor through the engine. Thought it would be cheap insurance to get a boost, EGT and oil pressure gauge. Just ordered some Autometer Ultralite gauges. Couple of questions on installing, for the boost gauge I see people are just teeing into the hose under the...
