Hi Everyone!!
« on: December 09, 2011, 02:10:27 AM »
Hi guys and girls,

I've only just found this site, and I love it. I've already got so much info about many campers which is helping me pick out a camper that will suit my little family. My partner and I have a 10month old boy, so trying to find something that we will all be happy in.

Currently we live in Townsville, but we will be moving to Perth at the end of the year. We will be driving over and plan on taking about 4 weeks to do it. I'm hoping to have our camper by then, just trying to find the right one. I was wondering if anyone could tell me where some nice places are or some websites that I can get info about camping areas near Perth? We want to get out and about, but for the first 6 months or so we will be restricted to about 2hours driving from Perth.

Thanks, and I'll get some pics up of our camper as soon as I've got it :)

Welcome to the Forum Ranger, there is a good contingent of swaggers in the West so I am sure they will come along and maybe share some of their secret spots. What sort of camper are you looking at getting?

Thanks for all the welcomes!

No wasn't up with the little man, he has been a sleeper since day one :)

We are tossing up between a Challenge Outback deluxe, and a trackabout. The Challange is a 2009 walk-in model and we are getting from a friend who has only used it once, so its pretty much brand new. Thoughts??

Greetings and welcome to MySwag ranger_ant.

Sorry to lose another Queenslander... but I guess the far west is a reasonably close second...  ;D

G'day Ranger Ant and family,
welcome to the forum.
Another one you can check out is -

Some of the same user names as on here, but a lot more of them know the closer Perth area - I'm more than 300km away

 :cheers:
