Towing Nightmare: Massive Tyre Blowout While Towing An RV

Send us a text


Once our heart rates settle down, we make a plan to unhitch the
van and change the tyre on the side of the highway. What a feat
in less than ideal conditions... heat, thousands of flies and a
sloping run off, made jacking up the 79 an effort in
itself! 


 


We limp into Marla and sort a spare tyre from the local repairer,
and enjoy an impromptu overnighter at the Marla Travellers Rest
Roadhouse, before hitting the road again early the next morning.
But our vehicle troubles didn't stop with the flat, as we
experience uncontrollable shaking through the steering at speeds
over 70km per hour, so it's back to Marla to try and figure out
what on earth is going on with the 79!  Despite all the
challenges this week we are reminded of the incredible generosity
of others, and are so grateful for the help we received in such
trying circumstances. 


 


Plus we are excited to be supporting the brilliant work of the
Royal Flying Doctor Service through a new partnership that will
have you feeling good in more ways than one!  We've teamed
up with Tim Adams Wines and Mr. Mick to donate $20 per dozen
wines purchased using our FEELGOOD 15% discount code, to our
favourite charity, the RFDS. Find out more details here -
