Gyday early bird nice to meet u. Our trailer is a market direct camping trailer I was unsure of quality being a budget trailer and hope that over time my worries are put to rest the main reason we choose a cheap option was obviously price and it's only the first of many trailers we will own over the yrs. I have a heap of improvements planned just not sure what yet lol first of I've just doubled up the draw bar with another piece of 100x50 box welded to outside of existing box reason being I wanted to extend the drawbar a bit because I plan on putting my dirt bike on a rack up front and this was easiest way also added a lot more strength to it. I'm hoping to bounce ideas around on forum as time goes on so hopefully I don't make to many silly mistakes with anything I change on trailer. I drive a NT pajero it's a lease vehicle and I'm really impressed with it been to cape and back plus numerous trips south and local we also have two young boys 5 and 3 that would camp every day if they could. Look forward to sharing our trips and experiences online cheers
