Gidday from a newbie on the Sunshine Coast Qld
« on: January 14, 2011, 06:02:46 PM »
Gidday Campers,

Just upgraded to my first off-road camper trailer. Haven't taken possie of the new beast yet, but am looking forward to many outings in it.

I did have a Vacation light off-road camper which the family really loved, but it had noreal substantial carrying capacity or off-road cred.

Literally just delivered the old trailer and went and looked at a Lifestyle Extenda which is currently owned by a fellow my swag member (don't know his handle on this site) and liked what I saw.

Should be taking delivery of the new camper by Saturday week. Can't wait  ;D

Do any of you fellow swaggers own a lifestyle camper or know of anyone who has one and whether they are as good as they look ?

Any feedback would be good.

Cheers, Balfang  :cheers:

Gidday mate,

Yeh, really looking forward to getting a hold of the camper. You should be proud of it and I know you are reluctantly parting with it.

Don't despair, we will take good care of it mate.

Have a safe trip down south and see u next Saturday.

Cheers,

Balfang (Keith)  :cheers:

G'day & Welcome.

Congratulations on your new camper. Buying a used camper is a great idea.

We've had our Lifestyle Extenda (new) for just over a month now, and have got away 3 times in it since then (even in the awful SEQ weather) - we're absolutely loving it..

Hey Toad (Gary),

Where do you learn to speak Balfang. I haven't come across anyone else who ever knew it. I learn't it about 17 years ago with the whole joke routine.

Thanks for the info 60 Series,

Will see how my work roster works out. Went to Cruiser Park back in November 2010 just after Mud, Bulls & Music. I hope they have cleaned the dunnies/showers by now, as they hadn't done it straight after that event.

Will check the thread as mentioned.

Cheers Keith  :cheers:
