Wow Chrisso!! Well done mate, thanks also for the detailed post on travel costs and consumption figures!
No mate - your not getting old and grumpy. I am 33 years young and I feel the same way. I have become very cynical when it comes to camp site etiquette. Your list sums it up nicely, spot on; i would however add a no.5 of "leaving rubbish behind"... whats so hard about leaving somewhere (a camp site, a friends house, a hotel) better than what you found it?
This is the joy of owning a Trayon Camper - we can go where others cannot (others who tow trailers or caravans or even have a slide-on but it is too heavy or has the wrong weight distribution which impedes their off-road ability) and add that to the blessing we have here in Australia where it is safe to free-camp and easy to get around (no boarders to cross)... we have it good!
Now that you have camped with AGM batteries, upgraded to Lithium batteries and camped with them as well - whats your report on the difference?
