  • Outback carports

    Here's a couple of carports that I discovered whilst out in the Eastern Goldfields recently. Why park in the hot sun when there are free parking options available. Anybody else got some neat ideas on where to park the Prado out of the hot sun or inclement weather?

    Love the second spot!

    Only thing I've seen done is someone setting an awning up above their car (clear of the roof by about a foot). makes a huge difference in the heat of the car. Also a good idea for over the tent/swag

      There was room for my camper trailer in the rear of the cave and it had a rooftop opening that would have been ideal for a chimney. I needed low range to reverse to get her in. Pity about the dead roo stinking up the place though!
