My latest and final GX video for a while, this one is driving back from Mount Isa to Cairns, it’s a beautiful drive:

It is a really great place, like everywhere there are some not so good areas but overall it’s a friendly country. Vermont is beautiful, I’ve been there a couple of times. When you do make it Australia don’t just go to the cities, make sure you get out into the country, it’s worth it.

Yes 35 seems good

Thanks for letting me know you enjoy the videos, I’m brand new at this and my reasoning was, if I find something interesting I’m sure someone else will too! Australia is Great, I moved here 30 years ago from Canada and I still love discovering the hidden. gems in this amazing land.

Hi Cruiser, sure, when I first got the car I was getting 11.3 litres per 100 but that has been creeping up, the last trip I was averaging 12.4, same roads and the way I drive however it was much hotter lately we were over 40ºc a fair bit of the time so it’s either that or because it was due for...

Yes it was, I was told there’s a Cairns guy at TJM (or ARB?) in Townsville who is excellent, I’ll be in touch with him soon.

I’m with Shannons, I submitted the claim online (1 windscreen free per year) and in 20 minutes I had O’briens call me to let me know they’ve ordered an OEM one (no aftermarket’s available at the moment) and 2 weeks later it’s in! I’m very happy!
