Alot has happen since the last installment,
Dad was not happy with the weight of the camper on the back, so decided to re-engineer the truck with a 3rd axle, airbags, and now locked diffs front & rear......

He finally got engineers approval & they set off on their first adventure last week. They wanted to do the Oodnadatta Track with some friends........
