Next on the show Phill chats with Jeff DeAth from Check Weight and the topic this week is the 300 series Land Cruiser.
Jeff has now started to see the new Landcruiser coming through for weighing. The bottom end of the range has more payload to the higher end of the range. The new Toyota is lighter but they have changed the GVM. You may get another 100kg payload compared to the other vehicles.
A brand new 3.3L twin-turbo V6 diesel engine delivering 227kW and 700Nm, this is the most powerful diesel LandCruiser yet. All new design that refines the LandCruiser look while remaining tough inside and out. State-of-the-art technology focused on intelligent safety and enhanced connectivity. New levels of functional luxury mean even the most rugged journeys are smoothed out. https://checkweight.com.au/
We also parked the van up at Denman at the free camp next to the Royal Hotel and chat with Ben and his daughter Poppy, they chat with Phill and tell him where they are travelling to. They were heading up to the North Coast of NSW where the areas suffered from the recent flooding and what they are going to do to help out. He also explains about his 80’s style caravan which he has made some changes for the family of 6 and their dog Dusty.
Phill, Ben, Poppy and the family
Whilst in Denman check out the Royal Hotel, they provide excellent free camping on the side, gravel slabs for your van, also there are showers and toilets and even a washing machine and dryer for a small fee. Take yourself over to the hotel and have a drink or better still have a lovely meal from the bistro. There is plenty of outdoor seating or the wrap around verandah. Phill has a chat with Mel who tells him a few more things about the hotel and Denman.
