Hi All
this is my first post. I purchased a 2007 18.57.59 a few months ago whilst I was in Perth, I then took a auick 3 day trip from Port Hedland to Perth and back to collect it. The Hilux should not realy tow it though it did not miss a beat and we got 18lt per 100kms and we were not hanging around. Though as it is company car and not super comfortable we just bought a 2011 Pajero RX. This is getting trucked to Hedland. We needed a bigger second car for my wife as the second little one is due soon and the Pajero should cover our needs at a fair price.
We plan on driving around Oz in three years time so we got our setup now to have lots of test runs around the Pilbara and surrounding regions and the odd trip to Perth. We may change the van before we do our big trip if we think we need a better layout. Our van has queen and double along with the slide out lounge. We are not to kken on having the table blocking the queen bed.
Here in Hedland there is no where to get work done on vans unless you know people. So I am offering my help to anyone on this club that is going through Hedland. And if anyone can provide me info on travelling with toddlers please feel free to share.
