Title: Hello All from Bertram WA
Post by: IH8TRMAC on February 02, 2012, 08:20:24 PM: Hi Guys & Gals my name is Chris Kelly and I am an avid 4wder and love camping with my wife Jolene and 2 kids
Jessica 5 & Alyssa 4. We love to go to places were we can take our Labrador as she enjoys the outdoors as
much as we do.

We purchased our first camper trailer from the Perth 4wd and Adventure show. We did all our homework
and visited so many different companies before making our decision. We ended up getting an Expedition model from
Outback Campers in Maddington. We were able to customize it as we wanted. It is currently being built and we hope
to get it in the next week or so. Not to sure if I can wait that long though, just to excited.

We already have a couple of trips planned to give it a good run.

Time to go and have a good look around the forum.

:cheers:

Hey Burnsy it's well worth the look. Trailers and tents are made in house, they use only Australian canvas.

These were the best I could find in WA for a reasonable price that was all Australian made.

Go the labs! we grew up with labs and mum and dad still have a black labrador in town, though she comes out every day and 'helps' with the sheepwork. Congrats on your new camper, hope you get many years of family fun out of it. Question ? Where is Bertram?

I've got myself a real sweet 2003 100 series landcruiser. Heaps of gear on it. Hopefully will put a turbo on it later this year.
