Hi from Central Vic
« on: March 15, 2014, 02:54:36 PM »
I found this place researching accessories and info and was so taken by the forums decided to join :)

We took ownership of our Johnno's Off Road Deluxe two weeks ago after taking one for a test drive last year. Last weekend was it's first venture into the wild, if you can call Boort caravan park the wild.

Thanks to the forums I've already purchased the Korr lights as suggested so many times and taken the GPS tracking for trailers for a test ride. Both were awesome suggestions. Thank you.

Looking forward to getting out and about a lot :)

Regards

Welcome to the forum. Good to see you come out of hiding.  We don't bite..............too much.

I have heard Boort can be a bit wild on a Fri night, so good to hear you survived.

Keep your eye out for more weekend camping trips in Vic if you ever feel inclined to meet strangers from the internet:-)

Wow thanks for such a welcome  :cheers:

A little about me. I've been a keen camper since I was a teen and regularly get away with a few mates. The family comes along to parks but that will change :)

A weekend with strangers from the internet might be fun. It reads like a lot of you guys know each other from previous trips, you can't be too bad as you're still here  ;D
It's nearly soccer season and I have at least one child playing weekly, will need to see how that goes before i commit.

I am wanting to add an Anderson plug to the car (2002 Prado) which I'll need some suggestions for, hint hint. The thread I read said do this and that but I need a little more :D
