We started to empty out the Coaster, it's amazing how much stuff you can collect in 10 years, it's even more amazing trying to recall why you thought that you may have needed to carry 'that item' around in the back of a cupboard. Bags of shells and numerous different products for the cleaning of toilets and attached systems. Go figure?
Tomorrow we are cleaning the Winnebago after our recent trip south.

Dot, The new rig was excellent. It far exceeded my expectations, and even returned a reasonable fuel economy of about 20l/100km. And that was towing the little Tilta trailer with the Jimny onboard. The only things that I would plan to do in the not to distant future is fit Lithiums, more solar and a slightly larger inverter. Only because the bride likes the idea of running the AC through the night. Bandit loves it too, but he thinks he is human so what would you expect.
We need to do a few minor repairs on the Coaster and the sell him to another family to provide more years of motorhoming enjoyment and another bunch of memories.
And no you aren't nosey, if people didn't ask questions then forums such as this would be shit boring.
Anybody wanna buy a Coaster???
Cheers

I lay in bed this morning and looked at the insulation hanging down from the ceiling.... and made a mental note that I should finish the inside fit out one day.... ya can't rush these things, they need careful planning.... lucky Eric bought a carton of 150 lashes, that assists in the planning stage a great deal ;)

Go on Bruce, you know you want to get pay back on the beast, what better way than to make it drag both of you around the countryside between river cruises..... tough life you pair have

Like I said Terry, plant Rustic in on pontoons and there you have it.
