Hi from Central Vic.
« on: May 14, 2011, 07:47:32 PM »

G`Day group, have been watching this site for a while now and as we have recently purchased a KK thought it time to join. As avid campers for many years the wife and I always realised that the laws of physics would eventually dictate some changes to our "tent and everything in the vehicle" approach. However other forces have intervened and hastened our decision to move into another option.

Having spent considerable time researching the possibilities we decided on a secondhand C.T. and to modify if required, consequently ended up with a 2000 Kakadu behind our much re-arranged 2002 Prado RV.

I`ll list the work we have done and fittings on both units in the relevant sections later on.

Cheers, Leigh & Kaye

 Welcome, I just joined myself.
Some of my favorite camps/places are in central Vic.
I grew up in Bendigo, and although I no longer have much
Connection to that town, that area feels so familiar.
I love getting back up there.
What town area you in?
