Qld Outdoor and Camping Expo - Toowoomba
« on: July 17, 2013, 09:27:44 AM »
Hello All,

Anyone going to this in a few weeks time (2 - 4th August)? Bit sad but I think I am more excited about going to the show and seeing all the gear than actually taking the ct for a trip in September. ;D

Any advice how to secretly buy things without the wife finding out :angel:

Back up plan is the fact that it supposed to be easier to seek forgiveness rather than permission. Will have to see how I go with that

Went a couple of years ago and wasn't impressed.  Lots of the same imported CTs (and nothing wrong with that before I start the usual debate) being sold by different companies.  Thought it a bit strange, particularly listening to the different sales talk.  Obviously the Brissy shows have heap more exhibitors.

Have fun

Im going to go now that I come back from the dark side,  (quickly worked out that caravans not for us). Cant get to the Lismore one this weekend.  Need to find a replacement camper so I can get back out there. Hopefully they have a reasonable turn out.

Have to agree KB but I have moved away from looking at CTs as a whole unit and more tend to focus on particular aspects, mods etc along with all the additional gear I can take with me when I go on trips. If I am not careful my next major purchase will need to be a semi trailer so that I can go camping. :cup:

We'll probably go.
Be interesting to see what's there this time - the Brisbane one seemed a bit quieter this year than last .....
