Combie, or more commonly, 'combi', is short for combination. In reference to the context of the question about a "fried out combie", it comes from the first segment of a song by Men At Work titled Land Down Under.

Since this group is from Australia, the word combie is an idiom; it refers to some combination. In this case, it means a combination van, specifically a non-commercial passgenger van that is combined with a tent. The roof of the combie vans 'pops up' to form a small type of tent to allow for extra room in the van, normally for sleeping.

'Fried out' is another idiom but could be either from a specific country or as slang from users of certain recreational drugs. Again, being that the group Men at Work is from Australia, "fried out" could refer to something overheated or used up due to overuse or abuse. As far as that reference in drug culture, it could refer to coming down from a high or other drug experience or even overdose/over use.

Drawing together the explanations above, the "fried out combie" is an overused or overheated combination travel van.
