Does it strike anyone else as ridiculous how ALL the hard floors and All new softfloors are basically identical? operate the same, same annexes,

Thats even better for us, we dont put in the step and the kids cant get up

the 4 foot step you make maybe 1 or 2 times a day?

its all relative.. we have a aluminum step ladder, very light and very thin, very handy for many things apart from the climb into the tower of power.

you need to toss up between storage and useability. if storage isnt a hassle and your stopovers are fairly short or overnight a hard floor is better than a softfloor most of the time...

if you want room, and storage space softfloor kills them everytime.

my soft floor is up and ready to sleep in in under five minutes and that includes digging the ladder out of the tub.. and i have a bucket load of space to live in.

if i am staying more than overnight i put the annexes up and i have a 4.5m x 5m fully enclosed living space plus onsuite up in an hour.

you need to determine what you are going to use it for and how you are going to use it before you determine what you will buy IMHO.

feel free to come and borrow mine for a weekend camp out at bribie... that will allow you to see in real life if it is a pain or a pleasure. :P

i might add that a hard floor is better if you are staying at a lot of caravan parks... some hate soft floors because of their size and also because they send their grass yellow if there for a few days....

Thanks Inc,,


but,,

its gotta be a hard floor.
so get over it.





so I s'pose all the Landrovers I wave at now will have an extra excuse,, They dont like hard floor campers---

There is a camper place in Tairo on the northern side of town on the RHS when heading south. Never looked at them but might be worth a look for you since they are kind of near you.
