Incidentally, on the Hay Plains, a highway cop sitting on the roof of his 4 wheel drive can get you with his speed camera at 3kms
Yeah, thank god for cruise control. I will think about the jerry cans next time. I did have around 600kg's of stone on the back so it would be hard to push.
Didn't you take your Missus ? ..............

Well lets see........ If I took the missus, it would be all up around 28-30hrs of driving. There is no way she could keep herslef amused for that long and it would all end up in tears.

I was being very cautious though and filling up whenever I could. Running out of petrol in the middle of the Hay Plains is never a good idea and I was happy to avoid it.

I had one that gave me 500-550 km's on its generous 120l tank.
The guy at the petrol place asked me if I wanted to put my Petrol purchase on budget acc. and pay it off over 6 months
