It would test my fabrication skills..."....

I't be O.K in a pop top version so you could stand up inside!

Isn't that a tracked APC, not a tank?

How dare you suggest that advertising may not include correct identification of Tanks vs Tracked APCs.
Advertising never lies.

Oops! Sorry. :(

Advertising never lies.After all most media and advertising target their information at the understanding ability of an 8 year old!

I can see your mum will be scrubbing those walls again.

Hmm..... a question comes to mind...


Will the swear filter cut in when I say:

What a ****! :angel:

I'm positive my 10 year old Tambo would cope with that easily, if I wanted to treat it that badly! :confused:

Looks like a normal weekend out with the Redback hey Baz.. :p

Will make a change from repeated repairs to her car. :angel:

Hahahaha, but I do that for 100s of Ks, not just 10mins around a test coarse;)

I noticed the bed was bouncing around quite a bit, any longer and I'd say the cover might start to tear or even the top might come off, it didn't look all that secure when they opened it at the end.

I reckon any of the older Aussie built campers, Tambo, Redback, All Terrain and so on would handle THAT and some, like yours mate ours is 10yrs old and way stronger than an MDC.

Baz.

ps, anyone notice the bent stone guard before they hooked it up, might of made a mistake on the first run maybe and went for urgent repairs, or they had multiple campers on hand, just in case;)

[loanrangie]

Yeah Baz i noticed the stone guard , it didnt last very long .

Funny, I had a look at these today whilst in Campbellfield doing other stuff.

Apart from the fact that when I do eventually buy another camper it'll be a hard floor (just me these days), I failed to be impressed by the overall finish on welds etc.

All very well to show some fancy dancin.... let's see one at the end of a really serious track taking several days with corrugations to boot:D

They say they 'dunked it'. The water was axle deep at best AND they didn't really show the trailer actually going through.

Big **** I say

Not made in Australia would be why, might be 100% owned and operated, but the campers are not made here, I think I remember when they started out they were, well at least the trailers were, but looks like they don't anymore.

OK just did some searching, the trailer is still made here in Australia, couldn't find any info regarding the tent or canvas, so I'm assuming they are made elsewhere.

After I see the vid of it being towed around Mt Panorama behind a V8 supercar and then test it's wind rating out behind an aeroplane,....
I might just hold my hand to my head in the shape of an L for the sales guy/girl.

I notice comments on the videos are disabled and what did they do that couldn't have been done behind a regular 4x4?
