Gidday, how's it going?
« on: March 23, 2016, 07:04:15 PM »
Gidday all. Paul here. The wife(Helen) and I have just ordered our first camper trailer. After looking around for a long time we have settled on getting an Aussie Jays. I just love the tough as nuts trailer and even the tent looks to be of better quality than some other imports.
I shall be looking for further inspiration though as we need to expand the very limited electrical system and possibly trying to source some checker plate boxes for the sides for storage/batteries. Can't wait to get it and start planning and doing a few trips. We have only been doing 2 trips a year with tents so hopefully this is going to make it so much easier to get away.....depending on kids and sports too...

Enough said.....id better start asking some questions in the relevant sections lol

Regards
Paul..(sneezy)

Welcome Paul, and congrats on the new camper.

Where are you based, and with what will you tow your camper?
