People generally get the government they deserve. The 'screwing' didn't happen overnight, and is largely due to people expecting someone else to solve their problems for them.

I meant the distance is a little different
But central Australia s a very good place to get something stolen especially Landcruisers.
Those 2 were waiting for an insurance assessor to write them off. They are not always easy to get in that condition . The insurance companies usually have a wrecker they use all the time or they are auctioned at Pickles Auctions

Hey Ken:
Is there a trip report somewhere or is this it? I'm madly jealous. I think Charla and I should do this on our way to NZ.

I have a beach house up at Teewah beach where that ship wreck is, I mean was. The Queensland Government cut it up and trucked it all away last year. Now there just 40 miles of beach and the National Park.

Steering with the wheel on the right and shifting on the left is the easy part...driving on the left side of the road now that was tricky for the first few days. Good thing the Aussies are good drivers cause they missed me a few times when I was on the RIGHT side instead of the left.
When following traffic it is easy to stay on the left. When I would pull off the road for a stop and get going again with no one around I found myself back on the right where I have been for so many years....hard habit to break.
Didnt need a cup of coffee to get going in the morning just a close call or 2 : )

In Marilu yes ..
isn't that an 1hdt?. do vehicles really get better milage with a turbo in it?, or are they meant for better power?. i have a hdj81, and thats usually what i get for milage........on 35's.
Any pics of the interior?
my understanding is the millage is slightly less with a turbo, a turbo is more a performance power thing.

On diesel engines a turbo increases efficiency which improves economy if you drive in exactly the same way you did before.
But if you use the extra power often, you will burn more fuel.
On petrol engines a turbo increases fuel consumption.
