Title: Hello from capalaba
Post by: Dazbrook on August 05, 2011, 05:56:19 PM
Hi all
I'm hopefully getting my first camper trailer later this year.
I'm over tents... :laugh:
Getting either the new Trackabout extenda or a lifestyle extenda elite.
Swaying towards the lifestyle as the Trackabout has prob jumped out of our price bracket with this new model...
In the meantime my parents are picking up their new jayco eagle outback they got at the show.
I will have FULL use of that till I get my own.

We have two girls 1 aged 5 and the other is 13..
We have been into camping for about 4.5 years now.
We r on to our 2nd 4wd now as we grew out of the Prado we had.

Happy days people..

Have a great weekend

Darren AKA Dazza...

Welcome to the fourm Darren - both choices of camper you mentioned are both beauties - although you will probably sway towards the Jayco after borrowing the parents!!

Welcome to the forum,

Don't write off the Trackabout just yet.  Go in and talk to both companies, and see where your budget takes you.  You'll be surprised what being in the shop talking to the guys does.  It's a lot different to looking at retail prices on the web or paper.

Again, welcome.

 :cheers:

G'day & Welcome.

I saw a Trackabout Extenda demo for sale at a pretty good price, maybe Trading Post.

Good luck with your choice, there is no wrong one, just the one you make now. Hire one of each if you can, small things might make the difference for you one way or the other.

Hopefully going to both shops this Saturday to take the 'handbrake' to have a nosy..

Can't wait.... I've seen the lifestyle at the Brissie show but not the Trackabout yet..

Parents picked up the Jayco ( geez aren't they built cheaply ) so I'm heading out in that down to Coffs for the World Rally Championship..

But yeah , after hearing so much about John at Trackabout I'm looking forward to meeting him.
With their new model it looks awesome , but I don't really need the fridge with it , so hopefully we can arrange something else????

Happy Days

Dazza

Welcome Darren and family of course. I spent some years working as a projectionist at BCC Cinemas in Capalaba and lived at Birkdale. Plenty of good company in that area and the islands are pretty handy too.  :cheers:
