Most places want you to clear the car out completely... But he was able to put all his gear that didn't fit in the freight container in the back of the ute for the trip.

Dont think it really matters too much (always been NOR here) Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/78839-wa-perth-guys-im-moving-over-and-need-some-info/#findComment-1192914 Share on other sites More sharing options...
