Apart from experiencing the latest and most exciting models, one of my favourite sidebars of reviewing caravans is seeing parts of the country that are different for me. So when the team at Titan Caravans threw me the keys to its 3.2L Ranger hooked up to a new Blackhawk 540,1 realised I hadn't thought through where I should go for a drive and some photos. It would be good to find somewhere different to the forests of the Sunshine Coast Hinterland where we usually go. How about down to the water at Pumicestone Passage, they suggested. Sounds good. So, I plugged in the Hema and off I went.
Driving an unfamiliar vehicle with an unknown van in a strange place can be intimidating,way first along the motorway at speed and then along backroads and some dirt tracks between the ever-popular pine forests that Queenslanders seem to love.
