Havent exactly finished the trip yet and had drama's along the way.

1. Roof rack gave way, due to corrugation. Not overloaded either.

2. Road train rock, and cracked my windshield, 10in crack in the centre. Hope I can claim for a genuine..

3. Son locked the car(manually pushed pin) whilst the keys were in it during Canarvon pit stop. Furious there were no locksmiths available... had to use the old coat hanger while prying the door jam, ouch!

On the way to Francois Peron tomorrow.

On a side note, I cannot express the scenery at Millstream towards Python pool.. there is hardly much reviews on it or is underated.

Mt Meharry was also an achievement so we had a few highlights to the trip..

I have partially removed the headliner today to see what is going on.

Jeep has done the most stupid design of all times, it will never work. The rivit nut do not mount to anything structural othet than sheet metal.

Photo attached. I am speechless.
