Another Newby in Gippsland Vic!

Hi there all. I have been looking at this forum for some time now thanks to a friend who put me onto it. There is certainly a lot of info and some 'interesting' posts/opinions/banter and brand loyalty. We have been campers (no, not that type!) for most of our lives and some years ago graduated to a tent trailer. From there we imported via a friend a Colemen camper trailer from the US with a fair bit of fruit on it. We moved on from that and bought a Jayco Eagle in April 2010, again with a fair bit of fruit on it. Funnily enough we still have our tents and swags and continue to use them too.

Regards Rob

Welcome to Myswag Rob. To import a whole camper from the US would have been a bit of a task wouldn't it?

Got to love the banter!

Thankyou and yeah it was a bit of work but fortunately at the time my friend was importing a few different bits and pieces and took care of all the hardwork, certainly a bit of red tape involved. A big lesson learned however, their canvas is not up to scratch for Aussie standards IMO. At the time to get the same extras ie HWS, O/S shower, King bed, etc etc was not common on Aussie campers, certainly is now though!

Ah, about time Mr C! Welcome aboard, hopefully this makes the decision easier and not more confusing!
