Hi mate,

Welcome to the forum, this is a great place for info, and lots of good advice and people on here.

I had been coming on here for nearly 2 years and reading camper trailer magazines before settling on a Trackabout camper, which is now in production (we have ordered a Trackabout Safari Extenda)

I am just down the road in Lara if you want to have a look at mine in January when we pick it up,

All the best, Col.

and now a 2012 Trackabout Safari Extenda!

Greetings and welcome JBJ...

Melbournians are ok I guess... just got back from the President's Cup Golf and thoroughly enjoyed myself. Much prefer a visit to Melbourne than Sydney! Particularly enjoyed Hardware Lane in the CBD... wall to wall restaurants!  ;D

Sorry... off topic.

Look forward to your posts JBJ.
