What I'd love to know is if there's anyone else in joining me on the trip???

Mate, I've often thought about it but the insurance out of OZ is horrendous, they require a cash deposit of 4 x the vehicle value, for me here that would mean nearly half a mill, all for a drive in the country. I looked at immigrating to UK and then doing it from there but it all got too hard. If it goes pear shaped for you maybe you could consider coming here to OZ, there's still a bit of open space here !!!, maybe not quite the same on the Big Game front though.
I enquired about taking a vehicle to the US and it would only be $7K return. I have contacts here that ship vehicles out of the US to OZ on a regular basis if it's of any use to you.
