Greetings all,
I'm looking at transporting my troopy campervan (height is more than normal, around 2.5) from
Adelaide to
Darwin. Does anyone know the best way to do it?
Cheers
Dust

1 - Get behind a truck which has destination
Darwin.
2 - Get the wooden planks that you previously stored on your roof rack.
3 - Place wooden planks in such a position that they lean with one side on the truck and one side on the street.
4 - Get back in the car, put the car in first gear, and floor it.
5 - Brake/Stop just before you fall on the other side of the truck
6 - Get out of the car and go
home.

I'm thinking thick as 2 short planks.

I rekon that you should speak real nice to "Mr Troopy", Doug T , and see if he will hitch a ride with a trucky mate to
Adelaide and see if he will drive it back for you.
You get the troopy to
darwin, and he gets a cheap holday in the southern state, not that its very inviting here today, absolute stinker of a day, howling hot dusty north wind and going to be about 48 degrees here.
Sitting on the edge of our seats not wanting to have fire pager go off.
Just suggesting there maybe someone who will take it there for you.
Cheers pesty
