SINCE my boxy, cheap as chips GQ Patrol was last featured in these pages (the October 2021 issue) a fair bit has happened to turn this thing in to a functional camping, off-roading and all ’round usable rig on the cheap.

After the joys of summer faded, we decided our next big camping and offroading trip would be over the Easter long weekend. The plan was to spend a good four to five nights out in the sticks exploring tracks in the Vic High Country, so I knew an Esky wasn’t going to cut it for provisions.
