Greetings from Brisbane
« on: October 11, 2012, 11:51:00 AM »
Hi everyone,

Long time lurker, first time poster!

Just thought that I would introduce myself and say hi, and to thank everyone on here for the useful posts and other information on the forum which has been very helpful in assisting me to make a decision in purchasing a CT.  Being able to read up on other peoples experiences (both positive and negative ones) can be a good measure on how some products perform under different circumstances.

After several months of research, looking, more research and then convincing my wife we could stretch the budget just that little bit further, we have laid our hard earned down on a Lifestyle walkthru CT.

The walkthru 'ticked' all the right boxes for us, and having two young kids, I think that it will serve us well into the future.  The team at Lifestyle were very accommodating and nothing was too much trouble.  We also looked at Trackabout around the corner - they were great as well (service and product) just could not fit it into our budget.

Just have to hurry up and wait for it to be put together now, and keep the kids busy until pick up time. 

Cheers
Nollsy

Well Done Nollsy & Co,

Welcome to the site too.  You couldn't find a nice bunch of campers if you tried.

 Hi Nollsy,

Welcome to the friendliest place on the net (expect for the Electrical section :D).

Congrats on the new camper, how long is the wait?

What is your tug?

Hi Nollsy,

Not sure what is worse making the decision or the wait, we have another 6 weeks till we get our first CT.

Hey everyone thanks for the welcome, it is appreciated. 

Hopefully pick up the CT around early November and will be towing it behind an NM Pajero.  Had to opt for an earlier model rig in order to have the budget for the right CT.  Everything is a balance I suppose.

The electrical section has some great ideas and good to see some people have a passion with all things electrical.  Unfortunately much of the technical stuff goes over my head, but i plan on annoying a good mate of mine when it comes to upgrading the CT with power etc.

And when I have some decent pics rest assured they'll be uploaded

Cheers

Nollsy
