Hi everyone....we are a couple of Australian 'Grey Nomads' (snowbirds) saying g'day. We retired about 5 years ago and since then we have spent about 6 months of each year towing our caravan (travel trailer) around Australia. From what we can see Australia is very similar to the US as far as RVing is concerned. One big difference we notice is how your rigs are generally quite a lot bigger than ours, this is probably due to the cost of fuel. By far diesel powered vehicles are the most popular for caravan towing down here, a litre of diesel is currently selling for around $1.60 in the city and around $2.20 or more in the outback!!, in your talk that's around $6.00 to $8.35 or so. Petrol (gasoline) is a little cheaper but not much. This all makes it quite expensive given that we have long distances to travel; from the east coast to the west is around 5000km or 3000 miles. We'd love to hear from any of you guys, maybe you would like to hear more about caravanning in Australia...Paul and Pam, Queensland, Australia.3.9KViews0likes19Comments
