Hi
Cant offer you any advice on Aussie Trax but I will say that whoever you hire a vehicle from ask lots of questions and check all the clauses.
Hertz, Avis etc. never used to allow you to take a 4WD off sealed roads. Many other companies also do not let you take the vehicles off the mainland to
places like
Fraser Island. Also check carefully the insurance terms and conditions, again many offer no cover off sealed roads; offer limited cover for 2 vehicle accidents; others cover you for any 2 vehicle accident but not for single vehicle accidents; and almost all have very high insurance excess payments.
Just be careful
Steve
