Hi everyone, we're in
Marla......if you're planning to travel the
Oodnadatta track, most of it ended up in our van, lol...after cleaning for 4 hours I've made some sort of impression in the van looking clean...ahahahha...having a great time, going to spend an extra day in alice to render a few repairs....
well mainly to get the cruiser's air con gassed...as it would appear it hasn't been [haven't needed to use if before now so we weren't aware of a prob] the
Oodnadatta track is in good condition, a few ruts and
creek crossing....but all fun....
cheers
Lyn

I am envious of your travels..... we'll get out there one day!!!
"

This is why everyone should run their car air con at LEAST 15 mins every couple days, week at most. That way you shouldn't have drama's,
........ and don't worry too much about the Pies going down last weekend.... at least the Lion's won!!!!!!!!! :-))

Jeez, Mrs Al - what are you cleaning for - ya sposed to be on HOLIDAYS. Anyhow the rest of the track to Alice will just fill the van up again. LOL Hoot, hoot, snort.
Can't believe the a/c doesn't work in the new Yota. Bet it's blowing over there - blowing 46 kmph here - and a bit chilly. Have fun - talk soon. (Hello tiddldywinks).

Dear Ruth, Mrs Al and Pesty,
It's okay; really..............when you decide to "get smart" and buy a REAL 4 wheel drive (ie: a Patrol), you won't have to worry about air con systems not working.
We won't make fun of ya's when you switch over!!!! LOL
Cheers,

Lucky buggers, it's been cold and bitter back here this week, big dumps of snow in the hills, and the typical romsey 'sunshine'.......
Sounds like you need some weatherseal tape for the van !!! , like Ruth said , don't bother too much , there will be plenty more to come..
Keep up the fun, See ya..
