G'Day Fellow Adventurers
« on: November 09, 2010, 10:36:54 AM »
Hey Guys & Gals,

My name is Mark (aka BUDDS), I drive a 05 Patrol ST 3.0TD which is going in for a make over in acouple of weeks to enhance its stock qualities into an awesome tourer. My wife (Heidi) and I will be placing our order for a Conqueror UEV490 in the next couple of weeks. I very good friend recommended this sight to me. Thanks Beachy.

Hope to catch up with some of you soon. If your are ever in WA let us know and maybe we can get together.

G'day & Welcome Budds.

What are your plans for the Patrol? What did you like about the Conqueror that made it your choice?

Welcome to Myswag Budds.   Have recently ordered our first camper trailer, so know how excited you guys must be.
Congrats.   You'll find lots of friendly, helpful folk on this website.   A very knowledgeable lot indeed.
Enjoy.
Cheers

Well the Troll is going in to get the following done to improve her already awesome capabilities:

2" lift with poly air bags (to take some weight off her tyred feet)
Dual Tyre Carrier
Drawer System
Cargo Barrier
Water Tank
Roof Rack
Long Range Tanks
Electric Brake controller for new CT
Battery monitor for dual battery system

We started looking at CT's late last year and ended up hiring a Pioneer in April for a trip up to Karajini National Park through the middle of WA. This trip was to get an idea of the trailers capabilities and also to see how 'She who must be obeyed' liked camping. The trigger to start seriously looking was when the wife said to me 'do we have to go home?' Up until this point we had been looking at the Ultimates, when low and behold there is a story on the conqueror in the 4WD Action mag. So I go and look at their website. and fall in love with the UEV490 Evolution. I haven't seen it in the flesh yet but that will happen on Friday at the Show in Perth. Then it will be Deposit down and hurry up and wait.
So I am really looking forward to this .

Thanks for all your welcomes and hope to catch up real soon
