Episode description

It is 2696km by road from Adelaide to Perth in Australia (via the Nullabor Plain). That's if you go the 'quick' way.

It's up to 190km between fuel stops,  in some very remote country.

Here, in this Q&A report, one loyal viewer asks me if it's a good idea to carry spare fuel for the trip. Pro tip: it's really not, but there are some other important factors that you should consider if you want to get there with minimal drama.
