The March 2026 Readers’ Rigs winner
👑 Our March Readers’ Rigs winner is Kev Smith, who sent in this action-packed pic of his Lifestyle Campers Breakaway offroad hybrid van and Toyota LandCruiser 80 Series, tackling Cape York, Qld.
“We spent quite a bit of time up in Cape York and this particular pic was taken as we were going into the old mining area of the Wenlock Goldfield (formerly known as the Batavia Goldfield), along Portland Road. Wherever the car can sneak into, the van will follow. We had a great time up the top, exploring Cape York with its history, unique landscapes and the wonderful people.”
March 2026 Readers’ Rigs finalists
Graham Bailey
Graham sent in this great pic of his 2024 Eternity Monument and 2024 Isuzu MU-X, taken at the Carnamah Big Tractor in Western Australia on his way to Kalbarri for a four-day stay.
Paul Winn
Paul Winn took this photo on a cold morning in June at a free camp in Wallendbeen in southern New South Wales.
“This was the start of a three-month trip in our XploreRV X22 Adventure van, towed by our Hyundai Mighty EX6.”
Peter Neilson
Peter captured this great shot at the Farina Ruins in South Australia’s beautiful Flinders Ranges.
“This is Betsy, our 2023 Supreme Caravans Territory 17ft 6in offroad van, with her boyfriend Elvis, our 2023 Ford Everest Sport. We dropped into the fabulous Farina Ruins on the way back from Marree during a recent (and amazing) Flinders Ranges expedition. Apart from the whole trip being a highlight, flying over Lake Eyre and experiencing Arkaroola were something else.”
Roger King
Roger sent in this great shot of his 2023 Jayco Crosstrak and 2023 Isuzu D-MAX towing duo.
“I took this on the Nullarbor in November last year during our one-year Big Lap (which we’re still on). Our setup has been very lightweight, and it’s been an amazing trip so far.”
