Hey willie
from the looks o your rig you now what your talking about...
Whats the deal with Jeep cooling systems (and why do I always pick them - my last car was a Ford hehehe)...???
Is there a good chance of the Jeep breaking down in those kinda temps?
Is there a better time of year to do the Central Road (I am getting the impression that now is actually the better time of year) - maybe we will postpone the trip...
As I said I am new to all of this, but i have been wanting to get out into the outback since i was a kid...so I will do it, its just a matter otf time, preparation and unfortunatley money hehehe
I must say though that from where i satand now at least, the lack of people being there in February is actually nice...I like being alone with my wife and kid so thats not a great issue (though I could see it easily becoming one if everything blew up!)
Is March any more leanient temp wise? or am i just pulling at straws...also...we have discusseda revised plan taking in
Sydney ->
Ceduna via Lincolmn and Flinders Hwys, then
Ceduna to Augsuta vie Eyre, then maybe North to
Birdsville,
Betoota,
Tibooburra,
Broken Hill,
Bourke Lightning Ridge, Dubbo, then
home (we actually live in the blue Mountains) - would i still be facing the same treachery at that time of year in the
Simpson Desert?
I hope I dont sound too naive...lol...just really keen to get out there early next year...
Thanks for your reply by the way!
