Just a short note to let folks know that I have ventured out west again in the 33 and caravan,this time I will be away for 7 weeks and cover around 6-8thousand klms,
I left home on Saturday morning and are stopped for my second night 50 miles down a dirt road that I still have another 110 m to go on it, 33 is going great fuel,usage in first leg of of the trip including over a big range that took flat out for about 1-1/2 klms was 17.95 litre per hundred klm, Will post more along the way.

Re: Trip out and about again that 33 does more miles than half those modern things could ever dream of so keep them wheels turning and let the good times roll

Re: Trip Thanks for bringing us along Lawrie.
Just for grins I was reading about Bedourie and Windorah. Their populations are listed as 115 and 122 residents on Wikipedia. Think about that for a minute! https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/attac...5&d=1654491062 |

Well , I had a very interesting day today,I had planned a 260 klm trip,on a back road between Springsure and Tambo,I asked at the servo what the road was like, OK ,he said a bit of gravel ,that’s all, we have just had and election here and one of the slogans was ,it won’t be easy under albaneese ,he was one of the politicians),well I didn,t think they were talking about the road not being easy, but this one sure wasn,t easy,180 klms in I got stuck, so did a council truck that came along,luckily it had stopped raining so after 3-1/2 hrs we were able to extract the 33 , the council truck and my caravan,sanity prevailed and I retraced my steps and returned back to Springsure,were it took $7.50 in the slot at the truck wash down bay to clean up the 33 and caravan,so after a nice hot shower and meal ,I’m done for the day,
Nice result of the retracing my steps back to Springsure is I will have a coffee with Danny from the barn tomorrow. |
