New from Albury/Wodonga
« on: May 27, 2011, 08:53:55 PM »
Hi, Kman here, joined up after surfing the classifieds in every possible webpage available for campers, I believe I could nearly offer advice on pricing and features and benefits for most campers out there......but no.......I haven't found my camping abode yet. Looks like might need to have marriage counselling if I don't get away from this computer soon. Joing Myswag.org probably wasn't my best move!!! (for the marriage that is). So....if she does divorce me, I guess I will need to make a hastier decision on my camper purchase, because lets face it, I'll need the accommodation. Having a look at a complete campsite nomad this weekend, just can't get the cash to get a newy. ANyway's thats my story, thanks for having me.

Yeah, Welcome Kman,
Mate, one will come along that is right for you guys. Might take awhile, can't rush these things. Which is easy for me to say, Touchie came along at the right time and so did our previous camper, but it took near 18 months to find our Cruiser. I looked at heaps and had two car yards looking as well before this gem came along.
With all that know how on what to look for, why not write a book, A Buys Guide to choosing a Camper, Might pay for your next one LOL.
Anyway, good luck with it all and have fun.
 :cheers:

Welcome Kman I know what your going through and it took me a long time to find what suites me, then it was 700klm away to the factory but it was worth it.  Take your time and get what is right for your needs.

Thanks for all the advice about waiting and making sure you make the right decision, the right one will come along etc. etc........but, I couldn't wait, the right one did come along, and more to the point it was slightly under my budget. Looking forward to contributing some great stories along the way and the wife, kiddo and I enjoying some quality camping in our new (used rather, but new to me) Complete Campsite Nomad Offroad. I'll get some pics up after next weekend in the "My camper trailer" section.

Now the personalising of this baby starts (and never ends apparantly)!

THanks for the warm welcome, see there are a few locals to me here, hope to get some tips and see you out camping soon.

Same deal, if you would like to look at ours just give a yell.  We are going down the Buckland Valley on the long weekend, probably a couple of other CTs there with the group of us.  If you want to call in and see them or want to come camping for the weekend you are welcome.  Think we have 6 vehicles so far.
