Our next trip to Australia - Motrukdriver - 11-08-2017

I think we'll get a van to roam around in.  We had business to tend to this time so roaming isn't something we considered but next time... yeah buddy.   I'm really liking the Mitsubishi Delica.  Don't believe it is available in the US except for special shipping.  The latest generation is nice looking but I'm really digging this style.  I think it is the 3rd generation.  Turbo diesel and 4x4.

Weekend excursions maybe pulling a mini-kitchen type trailer.  Don't think we'll be full timing over here. Next visit won't be as long as this one has been.  They are fairly inexpensive and we don't want to make a big investment in a vehicle that will sit for long stretches in between visits.   As long as I can stretch out in the back I'm good.

I was never much of a Beetle or Bus fan but I did like the Westfalia/Vanagon style.  This in 4x4 would be awesome and probably a little more affordable.

Almost choked on my coffee when I saw the price tag of that bus. My Jeep was only $2000. That's the price range I like to be in... hahaha

I couldn’t believe it either.

Just plain stock VW Westphalia in any decent original shape, so fashionable among trustfund hipsters

Goes for as much as a Unimog in better shape.
