hello!
« on: July 16, 2012, 10:44:26 PM »
gday,

just found this forum and joined up, and am loving it. I'm new to the whole camper trailer thing, but brought a second hand trak shak last Christmas as a surprise for the Mrs as she loves her camping just as much as me but she was sick of sleeping in a swag. A win win situation for me! We live in esperance WA, so it gets used pretty regularly around our awesome coast. Am really stoked with the trak shak, its a 2002 model with all the solar package, in great nick and got it for a really good price. I think Ive got the bug cause i cant stop thinking about all the things I'm going to buy and modify on our little home away from home.

Keep up the good work guys.
cheers.

G'day & Welcome Pup, nice intro and photos mate.

You can attach more than one photo at a time, there is a link for more boxes under the first attachment line.

Lots of members over the west, just like you guys, it would be a huge event if even a quarter of you all got together somewhere.

cheers everyone, great to hear from other people who love the whole camper experiance as much as we do.
Our little boxer is a very spoilt pooch, lucky we got the trak shak as she has her own double bed!
Would be a fantastic idea to get a big camping trip happening somewhere with all the wa myswag people, maybe something we could look into?
Will most definately keep everyone posted with our camping missions and mods to the big rig. I will have to suss out the posting pics thing more carefully, i was amazed i managed to get a pic on here, have no idea what im doing with computers, but was happy with a result last night! haha....
