Another newbe
« on: January 10, 2012, 05:09:27 PM »
G Day all,
First of all thanks to the admin for the acceptance to this great forum. My name is Steve and 54 years young and recently moved back with my wife to Bargara near Bundaberg. I previously lived in Cairns but to bloody hot and the cyclones are getting stronger so moved back down. ;D
My wife and I are planning to  start travelling around where ever the roads and tracks take us. Hopefully we can meet up with some of you guys and gals along the way. We are looking at the Cub brand of hard floor campers ( space van rover ) maybe, but I will take advise from any one of you guys who knows better. We are new at 4x4 trailer camping.
Cheers
Steve

Hi Steve,

Welcome to the Myswag Family!

As everyone else has said, there is boat loads of information on here and there are certainly plenty of Cub owners to have a natter to if that is the path you are going to take.  What sort of vehicle will you be towing it with?  What destinations are at the top of your "to do" list so far?
