well our rig isn't as flash as some either we're towing ith a 96 VS commodore, we've had caravans for the last 10 years but the one we have now is a 15ft 1980 JAYCO songbird pop top, I put in a 100ah gel battery in the boot and another in the van, a small 20w solar panel on top, just to keep it topped up when the van is not in use, and we have a GMC 750w genny in the boot of the van, I know a lot of you are going to say that cheapy wont do the job, but we,ve just finished a 16 week tour (may-sep) of SA,NT and WA, and we did it quite well, due to heart problems I am on a pension and we can't afford new flash stuff, so we did it with what we had and we had as much fun as anyone else out there, sure if we could, we would have better, but don't be put off going on the road because your rig isn't flash, there are thousands out there doing it some with less than we have, as the saying goes, JUST DO IT, if you want to, check out our trip at
