Hi all,
finally i can introduce myself after lurking around here for a while. i have been hiding the fact i own a camper trailer from Mr Mac of this site for the last 4 months (i even had the crew from SEQ Camper Trailers lie to Glen about us not buying the camper...lol), so now that he has finally been shown the new set up, i'm coming out of the closet (so to say....lol).
i was with Mr Mac when he ordered his KK last year at the Brisbane camping show, at the same time i put one on hold, but told Glen i didn't get the finance i wanted for it (that may have been a lie....lol). i've been waiting until we went camping together again, to rock up with my new rig and surprise him with our purchase, which is exactly what i did on the weekend.
this is the first camper trailer we've owned, all previous camping was done either in a tent, or our modified old 1970's Millard 13ft poptop caravan, so it'll will be good to take some comfort along now when camping where the old caravan feared to tread.
hopefully at some stage, myself the wife and our 2 daughters may get the chance to meet some of you in person sometime soon.
cheers Mal
Here's the only pic i have of our set up, taken on the arvo i picked it up from the shop.

cheers once again for the welcomes.
may be going to Fraser at easter time, so the new camper will possibly get a run then, won't get dirty though really, just need a good flushing to get the salt and sand out.
i'm guessing the new camper will be abit nicer to tow up the island, then the old caravan ever was. going over the rocks used to be super slow going with the van on the back....lol

G'day & haven't I seen your set up somewhere before Rumpig?
only places you would have seen our camper, would be the week before easter just gone we were at Fraser Island camped on the beach and before that we did an overnight trip camped at Canungra Showgrounds, other then that we've camped a night at the sister inlaws property at Gympie in it. there is another KK getting around the same colour as ours, it was the display camper shown at last years Brisbane Caravan and Camping show and had been sold to someone already, i liked the colour so much i ordered ours the same.

cheers Andy,
i would have gotten it the same colour as my fourby like Glen (Mr Mac) did with his, but white wouldn't have looked as nice IMHO, so saw that colour at the caravan show and thought yep i'll have one of them 8) 8)
