But if you are buying a large SUV, […]

DABAS blog post: Early January 2019: Towing safely – some things to be aware of, Hello readers, “Happy New Year 2019”. At DABAS we hope your Xmas day and New Year’s Eve celebrations all went well. With Xmas lunch and New Year’s celebrations now over, a lot of us look at heading away on a road-trip, often towing caravans or camping-cargo-laden trailers to our favourite holiday destinations.

Feature: Xmas road-trip safety tips.

Dabas blog mid-December 2018; Xmas road-trip safety tips. Hello readers, DABAS hopes the Xmas 2018 festive dinner and new year’s holiday preparations are going well: religious associations aside, the Xmas holiday season sends a lot of people out on the roads, out of town for a decent break from the normal working week’s toil, having some well-deserved rest and recuperation – at times with family and friends. Unfortunately, the Victorian Xmas work and school break can be one of the worst times on our roads for accidents, demerit point penalties, licence losses, road-rage incidents and for peak-time holiday-destination traffic gridlock. The […]

   DABAS blog post: early November 2018. Hello readers, DABAS hopes your November is off to a good start; in this blog post let’s have a look at five popular used SUVs starting under $15,000. You do not need to run a farm in the Wimmera wheat-belt region of Victoria to appreciate a good 4WD or SUV; their ever-increasing  popularity over recent years, some say, has seen the large demise in sales (or extinction) of last century’s traditional Australian family sedan and station wagon – like the Australian Ford Falcon range that was produced in Australia for over 50 years, […]
