Thanks guys, makes for sobering reading.
I'll be heading to Corowa this year in my Hilux 4x4 (with a commodore V6) and was thinking of hiring a trailer to take up there, maybe even Kennards. And then from there into NSW to get the carrier. I once hired a tandem from them to transport my F15 Blitz. But that was only for a dozen kms or more.
This time it will be from Inverleigh, near Geelong, Vic, to Corowa and then into Nsw for another 350kms. And then all the way back again. About a 1500km round trip I think.
Was thinking of a light truck but that may break my budget.

Here is a pic of what the carrier looks like. What do you think the weight would be?

I guess I'm finally border raiding.
