Hi all, I've been a lurker on the forum for some time. It's now time to join the fun.
Wife and I have been motor bike, kayak and tent campers forever, but this is our first foray into something towed.
We had bought a 2015 Triton 2wd ute as a run out model, and gull wing metal box, originally intended to take our tent camping to a new level, and act as a mover for bikes and kayaks. We are still slowly fitting it out with a kitchen, fridge, electrics etc.
Later, a 2005 Cub Supamatic on-road appeared for sale at the bottom of our street, which we initially ignored, as we weren't going to be a 'dinosour'. We had always scornfully called anything towed a dinosour - large, slow moving and should be extinct. Except box trailers. Boxies are OK. They're useful.
After several weeks of driving past the Cub on our way to work (and a couple of price drops), the damn thing followed us home one day.
Oops, now we are one of 'them' - a dinosour.
But hey, this camper towing isn't so bad. Its even a bit cool. We like it. A LOT.
Kinda pleased to be a dinosour too, in a perverse sort of way.
So there you have it - an accidental dinosour.
Hang on a minute. An on-road, towed by a 2wd!!! Hells bells, should we even be on here??
Cheers, Feathers.
