G'day folks
« on: December 17, 2010, 11:42:39 AM »
Swinging in to say G'day, i've been browsing these forums as a guest for a while now and decided to join up to say cheers for all the great info you guys have contributed to this site.  For a noobie like myself it is a fantastic place to gather info and ideas.

So yeah here we go...... I'm from Brisvegas and have just purchased my first camper - a Market Direct "Deluxe Offroad" with the spreader bar kit, spare wheel and underbody water tank.  Just a cheapie i know, but a good cheap transition from tent camping and should do the job just fine for me.  Picking it up tomorrow morning and cant wait to get out and enjoy it.

 :cheers:

Welcome.   It is a fantastic web site.  The people who are responsible for it must be very clever and must be very proud.  :cup:  It is great to get so many opinions on so many different subjects.  We love it.  And it is free!   :laugh:   Enjoy your travels.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys!


G'day & Welcome Dave.

What are you tugging your camper around with and who's sharing it with you?

Look forward to seeing you in other threads and topics.

The camper  is being carted around by my R50 Nissan Pathfinder.  Its a great car, very comfortable to drive, small enough that the missus can easily get it in and around the city, but not tooo small.  They are a very underrated 4x4 that is surprisingly good and agile off road, especially with the 2inch lift under it.
