Tim, I've been charging my batterys via the Anderson plug thinking it is charging both with the USI160 full kit, am i correct? It's about 6 months old, you mentioned the newer models doing so before, just checking. Thanks.

It will,as long as it hasn't isolated the main battery at its cut-out voltage.

Will have to remember this, as i leave my fridge on with a carton of beer at the ready at all times so I do put it on charge AFTER it's just turned off every now and then.

The joys of dual batteries, fridge in the car is the most underrated mod. Who cares what you're doing after you do the food shopping? You have a fridge... Want a beer? Fridge!!

So, after more than a month in which floods threw interstate rail transport into chaos, my long-awaited new D4 has arrived in Perth.
Quite a different drive from the now-gone L322, but extremely comfy nonetheless.

Now the expensive bit really begins...

Looking at all the oil spots on the floor it seems it's a regular parking place for Landies......

I've decided not to bother changing from the 19s. Seems to be and more tyres coming out in that size so will stick with it at least until the originals are worn down at least 50%.
From what I've been reading and people I've spoken to there's plenty of choices coming on without that expence.

I've gone the same way Alan. I'm sticking with my 19s, about to do a trip through the Kimberley and NT with a set of Maxxis LT tyres on the original rims. Fingers crossed:-) It's all about how you drive I guess. Pressure as low as you dare given weight on board, speed etc. Hell...what can go wrong???
