Hi all
« on: February 19, 2013, 08:24:23 PM »
Hey all, new to your forum but involved in the outdoor life since my child hood
We have  4 kids and have brought them up the same way. We had a campomatic hard floor camper for years but sold it when kids were small, now about to buy a new front fold hard floor and figured it was time to make some new friends :-) and learn a few new tips and tricks.

Cheers

Greg

It's a new one from leisure matters and yes I am aware of the pros and cons of Chinese vs local, but this feels like the right call for us. The model is the cruiser.

Thx for the welcome.

Being right for you is all thats matters. My friends have a MDC and while there are some things they think are not great it does the job they wanted for the right price.

Hi Greg,

Welcome aboard.

Your kids will love the lifestyle. There are plenty of swaggers here who have young kids including myself. Mine get really excited when we're getting close to heading away.

Good luck with the purchase!

Cheers,
Marc

Hi Shutterbug, the kids are all seasoned campers, and all into their teens now. We spend alot of time in the Vic High Country, the camper is more for expanding our touring and adding some additional comforts to the travels.......my wife and I are not getting any younger and sleeping on the ground is beginning to suck!  :D
