Camping Newbie from Vic
« on: July 22, 2013, 08:34:43 PM »
Hi I'm Rachael I'm relative new to the camping world (been a few times)
I've got 3 young boys (7, 6 and 3yrs)
I'm in the slow process to getting a CT (talking my time to find the perfect one)
And one that's with around the $5000 budget

We find with 3 kids we need a trailer (lent) to take all our gear (in a large sedan)
And time to organise trips (cant just pack up and go)
And I want to start going away on short weekend trips away without to much planning
So thought We might as well get a CT to make it easier  ;D

Welcome to the forum Rachael.  Good luck with your search for a CT.  Seems to be a few good quality second hand campers for sale.  Have you looked in the classified section?

Happy camping

Howdy Rachael, you shouldn't have too many dramas finding something within your budget, just allow a few $$$ in your budget for a few modifications to suit your way of doing things
All my life, I thought air was free...until I bought a bag of chips

Welcome Rachael.

Hope you find a CT and get out and about. Camping is great for the Kids to enjoy the outdoors.
