Was present. Heaps of deals happening. Best thing to do is look around then shop the lowest price at multiple dealers. I got a bargain on Korr Lighting kits

$350.00 for the new automatic trailer coupler 3.5t, which includes handbrake. One of my best mates is Dave Gall from the "Gall Boys" fame and Kedron Caravans. They swear by them and are on all their new vans. I have researched also a lot and they are the best fit for my set up in my opinion.

Apologies mate I didn't see your email. I must say that the more I saw of the 3 tonne vans costing around 100K the more better looking the 2014 Jayco Outbacks at 1700kgs looked. I realise that you are not going to do the OTT in a Jayco but seriously what percentage of people's travels are taken up by this sort of trip??????? For 43k,  an Outback Expanda with beds at either end, bunks and the large fridge and new suspension is great value in my opinions

Is parking at the showground an option if I get there early enough, or is there a pickup area?
I need to pick up a couple of things that will be to big/heavy to carry?
