True. A easy snatch out from the campers next to us and the truck popped out easy.

Was that at Charlie Moreland?

Not exactly an action shot, but we are on the ‘road....'.

Camp for the night....looks idyllic but it's off the road edge and blowing 80kmh/50mph.

But the view next morning was worth it...Perito Moreno glacier. Don't see many of these at home.

Hi John. A bit cheaty on the flags - easy to collect through Europe and surrounds.
We shipped to Uruguay in May this year and now well into our second trip down through Argentina and Chile. It's a long drive south but great to be in less developed country again, freecamping all the time.

The truck still going well, had the DPF filter removed a couple of years ago and some work on the starter motor a couple of weeks back. Luckily it failed in town and we could get the right part and only one in southern Chile. The actuators are unreliable (mostly water ingress) but I carry a spare and can reprogram them now (thanks to some help from Ian at ATW).

People think we're adventurous but I marvel at these kids cycling in the Patagonian winds - some afternoons they have to set up camp early as the wind is too strong, starting again in the (sometimes) calmer mornings. Saw one young fellow get blown across the road and off the wrong side - we give them a wide berth when passing!

Michelle and I have recently finished the http://www.budapestbamako.org/ GPS event. If you enjoy Africa, know how to use a GPS and don`t mind raising a few bucks for a good cause, this is worth looking at. It is not a easy drive, there are real risks to consider.

ULSD is sold every where.

Thanks for the update, and good info on the ULSD, Lance.

It was series fun Yabanja, do it again for sure. 18,000 K`s in four weeks, 13 countries. We came 12th with a field of 150 and roughly 80 finished. Truck was perfect, oil change half way through, that was it.

 

[lanceatm]

Our truck is on its way home should be back for expo.

I really need to stop driving into dumb things.. Or, seeing as that seems unlikely, at the least I apparently need a rear winch.. haha
