Okay as promised.
Am organising a weekend away to Stockton beach on Saturday 31st October and staying over night till Sunday the 1st November. The plan to meet up at the Orimbah roundabout rest area at 8.30am Saturday Morning then head to Stockton beach by lavis lane.Stopping at the servo for the passes and any extra fuel and last minute supplies. Then head out to our little camping area near the wreck set up camp then go and have some fun in the afternoon driving the sand dunes. I reakon there are going to be a few people who are waiting to see how the 6.5 litres of Chev power in my GU patrol is going to fare. mmmmmmm Might be digging my self to china with all that torque lol. Any way thats the plan so if any body is interested let me know where you want to meet up and we can go from there.

Hey Bill
No problem mate I wanted to check out the new motor myself before heading out on a long trip as Otooles and thought Stockton would be a good test with the camper. Enjoy Otooles and say hi to everyone for us

cant make it sorry

Hey guys no problem.

We had a ball on the weekend.Perfect weather and perfect camping spot. Will post some pictures when I get the chance. The Chevy patrol beat all expectations on the beach and has turned out to be an exceptional vehicle. It towed the camper as if it wasnt even attached and not once did it over heat while towing the camper. Fuel usage was a bit high I think the average was 3.81 kilometers to one litre of fuel(Beach sand driving with camper attached). This included the trip from Berowra to stockton and back to Berowra 370 kilometres and the patrol used 97 litres.On the sealed road I am getting Just on 10 kilometres to the litre towing the camper.
So I am currently happy with that
