Thread: Which camper trailer?

Have you taken a look at the Mission sold by Daniel of Expedition Centre (Mulgo)?

We had 11mths towing ours around Aus last year, went everywhere we asked (Centre, Cape York etc.) without drama. Packs down so small you forget it's there, and the side opening kitchen makes tea / lunch stops a breeze.

Whatever you get, have a fantastic trip, it's a wonderful experience.

A word of warning.If you are travelling solo get something thats easy to put up and pack up solo.Have a try before you buy.
Ive just made a camper trailer from scratch,during the protracted build time circumstances have changed somewhat.I recently used it for the first time.Its too hard to erect/take down solo.It is also too big to fully erect in a caravan park.
Also look into the bed arrangement,due to a deteriorating back issue its quite hard for me to climb into the bed,even worse getting out,it makes my sciatic nerve flare,I can fix the ladder to a better arrangement.The bed is actually very comfortable.

I will preface by saying " I do not sell or manufacture any of the following but have experience in the area you are asking about ......."

Have a good look at the jurgens tuff trax , good unit . Kavango hybrid , the bolwell cross over , lifestyle 10x or 12 x ,
In a caravan style , the lotus - just released , an on the move or a van cruiser .

The campers listed range from $40k to $60k for the lotus .

All are good units , all will go 95% of the places you will want to take your vehicle . As in proper off road ....
All will hold good resale , all can be set up by a single person .

Good luck in your search .
The caravan show is on in Melbourne ... Starts Wednesday , would be worth a trip !

Our Aussieswag is 13 years old, has been bashed all around the place and is still going strong.
My advice is to keep it simple and don't overload it with extras you will rarely use. They make them too heavy.
Good canvas, watertight, comfortable bed, usable kitchen, solid chassis and suspension and practical electrics are the main things. Also easy to erect and close quickly.
You don't have to pay $40-60k - $20k should be enough.

We have a Kimberley Kamper platinum and it is a tough well made unit with lots of creature comforts that keep the missus happy.

Wise advice about getting a camper that you can set up easily by yourself.

If I was going solo I would probably get a Tvan.
I haven't owned one but they look the goods for a one person show and they are also a very tough well made go anywhere unit.

Cheers,
Paul.
