Hi folks
« on: October 13, 2012, 05:33:29 PM »
I am new to posting but have gained lots of info and tips from all of you. Thought it was about time to take the plunge. We have recently purchaced a Complete Campsite Jabiru with a few extras. It tows well behind the old 80 series and we are extremely happy with the upgrade from the turbo tent. We already have five weeks booked in next year to do a bit of a tour around the South Eastern parts of Australia. We have been 4WD and camping for many years but our recent purchase has fueled the passion to get out there and enjoy the country before the kids grow up.

Great looking set up. Can't beat the Toyota, after many years in unison with the dark side I.have returned to the fold and will never leave again. CC looks good too, how heavy is yours Amurf?

Good to have you back,

Around the 1100kg with ball weight just over 100kg. Certainly heavier than I thought it would be.
