3deg and dropping outside, 21deg and rising inside. Couple of JD and cokes down and watching some great 90s tunes on Vintage TV with the family. What a great weekend here outside Sandbach
Yet again, an effortless tow for this short dash weekend break
Perfect combination indeed

Here's my rig. We've done around 70,000kms around Australia in the past three years, mainly bush camping where we can. The Kruiser is fully set up for offroad bush camping for extended periods, very comfortable and a breeze to tow.

I was just having a look back at the pic's and found my post on page 4 of my old Swift. I updated in 2016 to my Vanmaster. You certainly feel the extra weight of the 500kg difference but the D4 handles it without any complaint. I am now buying a D5 which is due in March, we'll see how it tows when I take the ferry to Northern Spain for Easter.
