Hi all,
Just joined the forum. I'm currently looking to purchase a camper trailer. Not into heavy/severe use (not doing Big Red or The Cape) so concentrating on the budget end of the market. Unless of course a good used all Aussie camper comes my way.
I'm relatively handy, have a shed full of tools including a mig welder and love to tinker.
Family makeup is me, wife and two girls 8 and 12yo. Living in Medowie. Drive a '97 80 series Landcruiser manual. She's a petrol engine, not on gas (yet) so I tend not to stray too far from a bowser.........
Started decades ago with a Jayco Finch and used it regularly. Graduated to a bogie-axle van for a short while. Now I'm back into a big tent (Coleman Montana 12) but looking to get some wheels back under the bed.
Current interest is to the
Skamper Kamper Ranger model, or I see Leisure Matters has a special on their trooper and have a shipment coming in with a taller tent (I assume similar to the vertical sided Skamper). Still trying to work out if I should go the 9' or 12' tent. I'm tending toward the 9' for ease of erection (can I say that....) with the addition of a kids room for extended stays.
Cheers
