New here looking for some ideas and comments on peoples experience with soft tops.  On the hunt shortly, loving the look and practicality of a Cameron Ultimate off road Concept top at the moment. Just waiting on final approval from minister for finance, recreation and the like!

Look fwd to many more hours scrolling through and eventually purchasing and getting out using.

Welcome to the forum.  Just googled the Cameron Ultimate and it sure looks like a nice camper.  Some interesting design features I haven't seen before.  Good luck with your decision.

Happy camping

Welcome to the forum. Nice place Renmark, the wife has relies there.The Cameron ultimate looks pretty flash. Can't comment on the soft floors too much as we are going hard floor.  Both styles have their pluses and minuses. You have to work out your needs and priorities for your next purchase. In saying that, the ultimate ticks a lot of boxes.

welcome aboard ,but word of warning and this should be on the cover of the site " this site is addictive" and " this site can damage your budget"

Welcome.  I have a Cameron concept, about 4years old now.  Could not be happier. Good quality, local manufacturer that you can talk to at any time (or visit them direct.)
The concept of folding out is very easy.  Seen some others opening their campers with much more huff and puff.  Even my wife could set it up by herself if me necessary! 
I am sure you will not be disappointed.

Thanks for all the continued welcomes!

One thing is for sure - it is very addictive this site!!

Bookleaf, I keep hearing the same this about the cameron's, so with any luck we will be able to get exactly what we are after in the near future - things are looking up!

Hi Smartyingreen,

If you ever get a camper, perhaps we could go travelling together? I would like that very much :cheers:

Thanks Speedhump.

Pogasaurus, I think we could manage that - I am however a little disappointed that you don't yet have a signature picture up of your new ute and camper though - get to it!

Hi - Tony here from SA. Just become the proud owner of a MDC T-Box ct.  Liking it a lot up to this point.  I know a lot of people consider the MDC units cheap Chinese imports, but they have everything I was looking for at the right price - came with some really good old fashioned Aussie service too. Traded my Hyundai for an FJ Cruiser two months back, kitted it out with the bullbar, towbar, underneath rails etc and bought a couple of metal detectors, so all good to go. Camping, prospecting and 4x4 driving - what a great country!

Welcome aboard.
Broke down in Renmark once in 1985. Suzuki GS1100G 13 months old & the alternator packed it in. Suzuki would not come to the party. Bought a small battery charger & got home to Tamworth with a few clutch starts.
Nice place to break down though. Could have been in lot worse places.
Hope ya have some nice camping trips

We have to start thinking about what sort of a world we are going to leave for Keith Richards after we are all gone.

Henry,
Still hunting - we are currently working on a second hand Cameron.  If this falls through we may look at a newbie or start considering other makes.  One way or another we will be in a camper soon-ish.  I think you can stop bragging about your locations too - some of us still have to work!!

Noel - Yeah it would be a great place to break down, especially in the warmer months when you can enjoy the benefits of the Murray.
