Great episode. We've recently been to Bundy, then west through the Boolboonda tunnel with our van attached on our way to Mount Perry. Not far from the Mystery Craters is Jim's Row of Machinery. This is worth a look, pity it's not on a through road to a great pub.

Great episode guys. Got a lot of banter about towing speeds in this one. In some ways, I think I'd rather be behind a driver going too slow than being confronted by a red P plater in a Hilux doing 130 km/hr flashing his light at me to move over while I'm doing 110 km/ hr. That formula is so common on the M1 in nsw.

Gee wizz Bryce, as said already, never thought you would say that. With the greatest of respect to you, impatience is a major reason we have a road toll. 15 yrs of first responding to crashes has taught me that.

The problem is people doing 80km then they,get to a double lane so you can over take they speed up to 100km ,so the truck can't past travelling at 80km is all about the fuel and yes you do use less fuel once you start travelling over 80km the aerodynamic of pushing the car and van though the air Love your blogs

How do you manage your puppy’s coat? Does it get matted? Going slow with a ‘van on the back, not being overloaded, having a properly balanced load to name a few things means less chance of sway and flipping your van and car killing yourself and other road users.

Anyone travelling at 80-85 on a bitumen highway is a road hazard, whether towing or not.

[@andrews8356]

YES YOU CAN!!! There is no law for travelling under the speed limit. However there is a fine for " Unnecessarily impeding the flow of traffic"😂

[@Kaotik_Monkey]

I hate people that drive under the limit, if you can’t do the speed limit cut up ya license

[@Livedaybyday71]

Hi bryce and chelsea, Chris here from Geelong and formerly Hervey Bay, question,how have you found driving with your caravan on the hwy?as a 1st timer do you get nervous

[@Livedaybyday71]

Are you both ok?

[@antony3678]

After living and travelling all over Australia I no longer waste my time visiting "places of interest". Generally they're not worth wasting your time and/or money and visited by old people with nothing else to do. That Copper smelter is a prime example! I'd rather enjoy nature.
