I thought I would start up a dedicated thread for my adventures in my Silver dualcab landcruiser.
I had one of my business partners over from Sydney and she had never been camping before, so I took her to Litchfield and Kakadu National Park, NT Australia.
My old Oztent RV 4 had seen better days so off to the shops I went, I was planning on getting something different but I liked the small changes that they had made to the Oztent so I got the same one. While I was at it I got a new 60 litre Engel with transit bag and 2 x Kokoda Oztent chairs.
This is a view from Wangi Falls in Litchfield.

I was hoping to drive the backway back to Darwin but the Finness river was flowing too much, and there are crocodiles waiting in that there water.

First nights camp, due to the humid days/nights not many were around. Peace and quiet.

A secluded water hole, unsure if a crocodile is in there. Didn't swim.

Right in centre of frame under that tree in the water was a 5m+ crocodile, only had my smart phone so could not zoom in enough.
