[QUOTE="condor22, post: 80939, member: 1932"] The issue I have is that, we already pay $700 + to put the tow vehicle on the road in the first place. Any trailer, camper or caravan needs one to move. It's double dipping. Secondly, I just did a month in the GT with my caravan. I did 3,300kms all up, of that about 1,200 were with the van and that was Adelaide to Victoria. I'm doing it again in a month or 2, so another 1,200 and later in the year about 1,000 to the Flinders Ranges. Also about another 800kms in smaller trips. So a total of approx. 4,200kms very part time for the year. I drive nearer 20,000 in a year, so only 20% with the van. Many trailer towers do a smaller %, the odd ones more, so it would be a logical opinion that the cost of registering a trailer/van should be a LOT cheaper than a car. Also bear in mind that a car registration fee is largely 3rd part insurance to cover injury. So surely that would cover others with or without a van, especially as nobody is in a van when driving. Such a huge increase is just a cash grab and should be protested.... [/QUOTE]
