Sad goodbye to a true friend

Coincidentally the fleet manager rang today. The Troopy is currently bobbing about on a boat somewhere in the Pacific, due at the dealership on Aug 12th. I was provided the VIN number when it came off the production line so the federal SSM approval is already underway, which otherwise apparent can take some time. Its got a bit of other option work to be done and hopefully that all wont push handover out any further so Im hoping ill have it within 4 weeks. We're were planning to head up NSW coast Sept sch hols, but probably wont have time to sort out power and trailer brakes before hand. Im in negotiations with my brother to do a lightning tour up around Uluru and the West Macs ... in swags. Havent done that for a while, could be fun
You will be right bro when you get it you will be jumping for joy evan with your bad knee just think every day you dont have it is a day you dont have to push a clutch in with said bad knee
Swags are you kidding its bloody cold at night will you have the pie maker and coffee michine
As for van wireing get you mates at toyota to do it youve spent enough ... tell them how you want it evan if you change things later at least its wired for the van for now ??

Mate... S. T. Ruggling. Not a day goes by when I'm day dreaming of life back on the road.
Would I do it again? One of the things that keeps me going is the fact that I WILL do it again. Not sure when. Probably when kids leave the home. So we can sell it to buy back into the caravan market.
