Record-breaking Camry Run!

[Mr Toyoda]

Is anyone interested in participating in a convey of Camrys and driving the circumference of Australia? I would propose to leave the Gold Coat on 1 January 2011 and arrive in Brisbane on 28 February 2011. Anyone in?

[Sukkykoku]

How many K's are are talking? 20,000 KM's

[Mr Toyoda]

[Andrew357]

[Ronnyboy]

What happens if one of the Camry's hit a Roo?

Or breaksdown

[VF-X]

WOuld definitely be interested.. But no source of income for 2 months = dead

Agreed. Plus add to the fact that not only will you not be working... you will also be spending money on fuel.

Definitely not interested.

I don't think the Camry was ever designed to go outback. Did you ever wonder why car companies made 4WD.

a camry should be fine if it runs on route 1 only, unless parts of it is sand. that's going to be a long trip though.

[Ronnyboy]

Petrol would cost approx $150 per 1,000 kms,(98 Octane) 20,000 kms would be $3,000...

Lol I can think of better ways to spend the life of a full set of new tyres. And driving long distances is boring with all these speed cameras anyways. Even driving down to sydney got boring when we were 2 hours away, mind you we did with 1.5 stops :P

Its hard enough getting guys for a 1 day cruise let alone 2 months of cruising ;)

[Wixy]

if u guys are actually serious about this

check out for water pump issues.

mine blew, along with it, the waterpump housing, and also damaged the timing belt.
