Bugger me folks..Too many GPS to choose from...I know very lettle about GPS units...One thing i can tell you there not cheap...Ive seem them range from $160.00 to $0000's ....All i know is i cant afford $0000's ....I've read alot about them and now im more confused than i was before....I know most of you people out there have them....All i want is something that can get me from A-B...And to keep me from getting lost lol....Can someone please help me out here...i have seen them on here for sale as
well as on ebay and the quokka and the paper...Im sure from experience you all can recommend something with in my price range...even second hand i dont mind...I just don't know what type to get and i only hace a few hundred dollars to spend as
well....I would like to be able to mount the GPS on the dash as
well as be able to take it out of the holder....
I also would like to know about water tanks for the 100 series cruisers and what sizes are available and just where are they mtd as i have a large sub fuel tank and would like to know where you put them...sorry if i sound silly just have not seen any....
Hang on don't go away yet he he ...there's more he he...I want to know about ladders i have seen on the 100 series which are mtd on the side of the cruisers to be able to climb up and get things down from the roof rack...where do you get these from and are they a hassle in the bush...
If you were going to mount a spare tyre on the roof is it best to mount it at the rear of the 100 series or up the front over the cab...i already have one on the rear just would like to carry another...
well thats it...should keep you all busy i hope... thanks again people...appreciated as always...

Hi Phil,
Re ladder I had my ARB guy rig one up that hooks over the edge of the roof rack and then tucks onto the sidewall of the tyre.
I'm 100 kg and it works fine.
It is a hastle to cart around being long, but I need it to do my photography from roof rack on many occations. Have a look www.image-australia.com.au.
I also carry an alluminuim
kitchen type step which weighs nothing, but makes it so easy to circle the roof rack and get things down with ease.
Regards
Joe
