Hi from Sydney
« on: March 06, 2015, 11:01:35 AM »
Hi everyone,

Just a quick intro post to say g'day. After much deliberation I put a deposit down on a Johnno's Off Road Deluxe at the recent Newcastle Camping Show. Delivery date still TBA but very excited. Initial plan had been to buy a $9k model off an unmentionable three letter manufacturer but the camper trailer gods must have been kind and the bride gave me sign off to spend a bit more coin.

Vehicle wise I am running a 2013 D-Max LS-M dual cab ute which usually only carries a briefcase. It followed a brief stint of owning a Hilux for about 12 months. It was a '91 model single cab and as much as I loved the look of that era of Hilux models, it made no sense for a bloke with a few kids. Good way to sample a bit of 4WD'ing though.

So here I am. Soon to be an owner of a trailer and very keen to get it out on the trails.

Cheers,
Tones

Thanks for the welcome everyone. Worst part is the waiting. Really looking forward to getting my hands on this thing and putting it to good use. A few pics for the forum won't be far behind delivery.

Cheers,
