I never did 'move' to Australia like I was considering; it is a long story involving some serious family issues and a divorce. It all worked out for the best in my opinion, I'll spare you the details.

But yes, I did visit Brisbane for about a month in 2013 and have been in Phoenix ever since. Just haven't been active on here or with the Montero until recently smile

Thanks for the welcome. Getting the camping gear back together again, most of it was pretty much intact. The worst was batteries that leaked all over the place having expired in 2014.

BTW, for anyone interested in AGM batteries, I recently discovered an upgrade to the Lifeline AGM GPL-31T that is exactly the same dimensions and configuration. So, since mine needs replacing, I am upgrading to the Lifeline GPL-31XT which provides 125 amp hours of capacity. I'm fairly confident no battery of the same size has more capacity. Be careful when lifting it though, its 74 lbs!
