Hi all,

Like a lot of others have been stalking this site for quite a while.  Currently have a 1994 Landcruiser RV80 (glorious petrol) and a 1998 Trak Shak Midway.  Will be looking into upgrading/downsizing in the near future as the kids have now grown up so the Trak Shak is too large for the two of us.  Will put some polish on the Trak Shak and put her up for sale.  Have been looking around the Camping Shows for something under 850kg Tare and a light ball weight of less than 80 kg.  So far have only come up with an Ultimate xTrk and the Adrenaline Rush - any others out there.  The Cruiser still goes well and still gets the same incredible fuel economy when it was new - around 16 lt/100 irrespective of around town on highway or towing.  Maybe a Common Rail Turbo Diesel is required to haul any new Camper.

Cheers

Chookduck.

Welcome to the forum chookduck.  80s landcruiser + Trakshak CC = a tuff and reliable setup.
See you around the forum.
