holly cow I was gonna ask what did it cost for the fuel! booo hoo=( hey are you taking a extreme remote route?? there were several little towns I thought placed there and being diesel I thought you would not have trouble because of the tractor trailer rigs running there.?? Carry that extra fuel is gonna cut on the MPG let us know how it affects the drivability also.

No towns or tractor trailers on the Canning. It's a very isolated track running through the remote eastern parts of Western Australia. You can organise a fuel dump at Well 33 but even that involves a 1000km round trip for the company to dump the fuel.

You are in the middle of nowhere.

The Canning was a stock route setup to take cattle from the north down to the south. Incredible to think that men on horseback etc would make the trek leading cattle

What happened to Sherpa I? Did I miss that part? I picked up what I believed to be an allusion to problems with it in Russia, but didn't see any further details.

Is this a case of saving it for the magazine, not airing dirty laundry, or just hadn't posted about it yet?

I thought Sherpa 1 was still there they just added another for support.

Australia is just simply awesome - an all encompassing awesome. Imagine going to your local dealer in the US and seeing this truck for sale!

Enjoy the journey. Nothing like a bit of red dirt under the tyres and on the vehicles to sooth the soul...
