yep tomos for me too, been looking forward to the expo since March..

Havnt been to the other show for over 5 years cos it was crap, went there to buy a tent and there was nothing but Chineese thin canvas crap.

The industry has been asking for change and I trust that this new expo is the change that they have asked for...

But it is very disappointing to hear all the carry on thats going on.

Like John Rooth and the unlock aust will only go to the august show, if he was serious about unlocking australia then he and / or the team would go to every 4wd show/expo etc thats on..

Also the 4x4 earth site an forum is only supporting and promoting the august show?? weird, very weird, if they loved the country so much then why wouldnt they promote/support any and every show and event thats on??

cant wait to get there and have a look myself.

I was there yesterday.

I usually go to all expo shows in regards to 4wd, hunting/fishing, caravaning etc.

This one is nothing worth mentioning. Compared to August show last year this one is much smaller, even speaking with few exibithors and workers there - they all reckon it's just a bunch of BS and they prefer August show more..

Caulfield show (caravans) is the biggest in my opinion and the best, then the August one.


One thing come positive out of this one, I decided finally which camper trailer I will go with.  Tvan all the way.

you say it was a bit smaller but were all the exhibitors 4wd related and have top quality products, or were a lot of the exhibitors selling cheap chineese crap and useless crap that should be on the shopping channel or at markets?


the old saying quality versus quantity..
