Jayco Owner from VIC
« on: March 03, 2014, 10:40:25 PM »
Hi all,

I've had a few posts  been lurking around for a while so thought I'd introduce myself.  Bought a new Jayco Swan outback last year nearly fully optioned (thanks to myswag helping me option it up and spending)  >:D  But all the advice eg. extended draw bar etc have been very handy.

Was tenting previously but the 3 hour pack up times as I have a young family started to get to me (especially in rain).  Rolling up multiple mattresses/stretchers, pillows, sleeping bags etc, you know what I'm talking about.  Hence the camper.  But they didn't say it was still going to take me an hour to pack it up!!  :o

Practice makes perfect they say, and I've had some practice over the summer holidays which has been good.

So far have spent about a month in it and hoping to spend more time it this year.  Hoping to keep it for a while and get some returns on the investment, if not financial at least some good memories and trips.
Hope the pic of my rigs comes up on the attachment  :-[
Cheers
Cisco

Welcome Cisco,

You have a great looking set up.
Time to set up & pack up is based on how many extras you take.
Have fun in the Swan.
