Hi Everyone;

  New to these forums, so bare with me.
Came across you guys a few days ago and seems like a great place to get some ideas. Looking at buying my first ct and was looking at a Pinnacle as i don't have a huge budget and seem pretty good value for money. Curious what people think and any must have options for a family of 5, ranging from 2 up to make trips a bit easier
Thanks in advance

Cheers for the welcome Mace;
From maitland NSW, Got a 2002 pajero at the moment, looking at up grading in next 12mths, as we're planning a trip to fraser island and maybe inland (see how the budget and work fit in), so want a deisel for better torque and fuel economy.

Hi rioflex, welcome to My Swag.
When deciding on a camper don't forget to check out the preloved. You can pick up some good bargins.

G'Day and welcome rioflex

Just remember when you are looking at your first purchase go over the trailer and under to have a look at the quality of the welds.

At the end of the day you need to make sure that you buy a camper that's in your budget but still gets you to where you need to go.

No point in paying too much for a camper that you can't afford to go out and use it.
