They would not believe me that driving to Sydney from Perth was 48 hours non stop, each way!

Australia is big

@37 pirate funny though

[@joed7599]

37 pirate I live in Perth Australia and work all over the wa state, it’s as big as Western Europe

[@Phil_McAvity]

Go the 70 series!!! 🤙

[@Shamusving]

Travelling around Europe and telling people how big Australia is, some get it, most don't. Some of them try to compare it to driving from Edinburgh to London... I just smile because no amount of explanation will get them to understand it until they do it themselves.

[@derbybOyzZ]

We talk about building a high speed rail to connect Australia. What if we just made a 4 lane road with barriers to protect from animals getting on and had no speed limit? It would make a big difference in travel time being able to do 200 instead of 110 if you're going from Perth to Adelaide and what not. It would also be a lot cheaper than making a high speed rail line.

[@sdm6054]

No, no it wouldn't be cheaper. Those roads are expensive to build and expensive to maintain. Germany spends a lot of time and money maintaining the autobahn. Both would be crazy expensive to build and keep running, there are no cheap options for Australia.

[@StuTheDon17]

The animals need to be able to cross roads. The consequences of reducing or increasing the number of animals in certain areas can have catastrophic effects to the landscape.

Today i just did 15 hours nowra to moss vale to melbourne then gippsland because all the roads are blocked to get home...... All of aus east coast is on fire 🔥 unbelievable

Americans have the Tacoma which used to come with a beautiful UZ V8 since around the 90s. Americans often say “we don’t get the Hilux” and while that’s literally true, the Tacoma is very close to a Hilux but I’d love an old Tacoma V8 RHD.

[@nodrama490]

Toyota are great 👍 main city is Perth but there are many towns along the way

[@cjod33]

Western Australia is about 1/3 of Australia. The capital city of western Australia (Perth) is the most remote city on the planet. The closest city to Perth is not in Australia it's in South Africa 😂. Australia is a fkn big country with a shit load of desert and fk load of things that are trying to kill you. Im just glad we don't have Bears, Drop Bears on the other hand 😂.

[@batubop651]

I always grew up with conflicting statements about this, it seems the dispute depends on city population/classification and how the distance is measured as in flight path, roads, or straight line on a map etc. So just to play geek, Google is saying Adelaide is the closest city if judged by 1mil+ population (2,136km). If under 1 mil, Denpasar City, Bali is then the second closest (2,580km). But for actual capital cities by flight, the closest is Jakarta (3,012km) followed by Singapore(3,912km). In general Perth is closer to several Indonesian cities than most Australian ones! A dab of Vegemite on your nose keeps the drop bears at bay, stay safe.

I just recently did kalgoorlie to Geelong in a small 3 ton 4x4 truck at 85kmh the whole way took 43hrs

[@TeutonicTrickster]

I towed 3 german tourists & their old 4 wheel drive 400km from mattaranka springs ( Town 100km south of Katherine) to Darwin. Took me 7 hours. Id driven from Adelaide. My only conditions were they pay for fuel & buy me a few beers when settled in Darwin. Because a proper tow for their car from there would have cost a shitload. They never contacted me after. Cheap bastards.

[@user-dq2ym1nn9k]

Mataranka

[@aedsy]

Did you get any money from them on the day or are you saying they were supposed to contact you after to repay you?

[@TeutonicTrickster]

@@aedsy on the day they paid for fuel, which is all I asked for while I towed their car. I did ask for them to buy me.a cheap pub meal & a beer once they had settled in Darwin a day or 2 later. That's the part they didn't go through with. That request of me was more so we could all sit around over a beer & laugh about the situation we got through. I guess being German they didn't understand that because Germans don't understand humour
